Locations
Overview
Spawn
Each team spawns inside a tomb, which expels into two different paths leading to an additional three. The left path leads to a small tunnel with two health packs. The middle path leads underneath the battlements bridge, directly to center point. The right path offers a ramp to the battlements.

Update history
- Added koth_lakeside_final
- Water sources around the map now use modern custom materials, instead of water_well
- The fog distance has been slightly tweaked to account for the newer radial fog, revealing some previously-invisible skybox detail
- The sun angle has been slightly tweaked to allow sun to shine into the water temple
- Cubemaps in the team spawns and water temple are now parallax-corrected
- Brush materials inside of the water temple are slightly reflective, for a wet "pseudo-phong" look
- The sand-tile blend material used in many places now has a proper $blendmodulatetexture
- The map's stone floor material now has a proper bumpmap (the same one as the concrete floor texture it was derived from)
- The lightmap scale has been adjusted across the map to make shadows less blobby where it was previously noticeable
- A few playerclips have been converted to blockbullets where appropriate
