Description             : This is my first Map - ever - i've never done something like this before :) But i'll guess i like                           it :)
                          (always remember that when you're walking thru the lvl;) 
                          I know the FPS could be better at much places - so if you wanna play with a lot o' Details -
                          i will suggest you to have a 500+ Machine ! Well, i've done a lot to optimize the Map but anyway -
                          it could be better. 
		      

History:
                          I've tried to rebuild a Level from the Q3Test 1.08 Day's cauz it ruulz like hell ! 
                          The lvl we're talkin about is the famous VQ3 from anyone nobody knows =/ 
                          If YOU know the real Author of this ASS- Kickin lvl, pleaze drop me a line. 
                          Oh, and yes, it's not a Converion like a lot of People out there are waiting for, 
                          it's a new Level, using the VQ3 Style (I hope :)
