Someone knows, and offered to tell me. I ran Viking as much as possible
to give _____ some leeway. Several times. I was shown pretty much
everything in the great out of doors....except....how to get into the
nest. Right in the middle of another try, the map rotated But that
was Easter Sunday when that went on.
Do you listen to the voice chats CF?

The mapper put it there, and at least one way to do everything in the
maps they created. According to the author that is. Bellas_room_deluxe
is one of the most enjoyable maps I've played. A pair of 4 bod teams
could have some really wonderful urban warfare in that map! I'd enjoy
hosting that one map all day sometime!

Ah, I see it just rotated to the kitchen See ya'll in a while

Hey All... I just stumbled on this thread by search for "onesneakymouse"..
I too hope he is well... I was waiting for him maps for HL2, and grew tired
of the wait... so I decided to take matters into my own hands and create a
map. One map turned into two... and then more... Bella's Room is my
daughter's bedroom (not quite as messy) I hope you all enjoy playing it,
and look for the next maps I'm making!

Tried jumping in the pram like somebody hinted but that just took me to
a ledge above the window. Found I coud break the window glass but the
resulting hole is in the wrong place/tto small.
Any better hints out there..??

Excellent map Nomad... probably the best HL2 has produced to this
point... It's strange about Mouse, on Feb 2nd he posted that his
"PrisonRats would be finished in a few day then disappeared.... You
asked for map suggestions on your web site www.nomadmaps.com ... I've
always begged Mouse to create a "SaloonRats" or a "PubRats".. Perhaps
you'll kick the idea around a bit... A JukeBox, Darts, Bowling machine
spittoon, or whatever...

Easier is to get on the roof of the dolls house and jump into the foot
locker.... Also you can use the GG and toss a couple of the building
blocks onto the ledge by the window, climb on them and jump out...

It's not a great spot to be.... It's hard to see inside the room... Ya
gotta shoot through the broken glass and aim after it passes
