There was never a warning... whether it was due to the nature of the site or simply complacency, it didn't matter. By the time the communication blackout was noticed and a response team notified, it was already too late. Even if the convoy had made it to the site, and even if they had known the true nature of the breach, the odds of a full containment were slim at best. The former "inhabitants" of Riverside township scattered across the countryside, leaving the town abandoned, and dark secrets below...

gm_engarde is a moderately large exploratory sandbox map. While it is not expressly a horror map, as you play it, you will find something’s just not right...

The majority of the surface buildings have area portals, trees and other props fade out at varying distances. The surface river poses a significant threat to high frames for some users, therefore, I recommend that anyone experiencing low fps near the river to input the console command "r_waterdrawreflection 0" which should improve frames considerably, at the cost of real time reflections in the water. The underground is well optimized and should run smoothly even on lower end systems

This map includes full navmesh and AI nodes (Have fun!)

Most of the content is packed into the map
L4D2 recommended for full functionality (certain decals and a single prop)
