<div class="IPBDescription">Screens and RC1 Download inside</div> The URY273 Project
U.R.Y. – Un-Related Ysakis, was an attempt to provide off earth mining that worked well, until the 275th mining planet was founded.
The URY Project was originally a concept founded by Nissan, and the South Australian Government, in 2056, but only became feasible once the introduction of Phase Tech was implemented and accepted World, and Space wide a few years latter.
The URY273 Project was founded on a planet that had at one stage held life, but that life had long gone, and only there 2 massive triangular pyramids still stood, able to be seen from any where on the planet. The URY Project team, had sent a small mission to the pyramids, and reports that came back had said that the pyramids where at least 3 KM in height, and 23 KM to a side. The reports also said that the material they where made out of was nanite rich, and was also very hardy, and could be sold off to the Lament Machinery Works to make the Resource accreditation LM67 Class ships.
The LM67 Class ship’s, in there hay day were used for Resource accreditation, Resource accreditation was what the corporate’ of the foundling planet did when the planet was not exporting its share of income, from its operations, such as raw resource, being trees, minerals, clean water, or what ever the planets industries could make cheaper then on earth, or where not made on earth. These Resource accreditation missions would needed a full Battalion – 10 of these LM67 class ships, to go to the planet, and claim anything that was of worth, to sell back on earth, and keep the peace of the populace, that thought it was not part of the corporate it was founded under. However the last Resource accreditation mission was some 15 years ago, and the last LM67 was produced 5 years before that mission. The Lament Machinery Works was now closed up; and as such URY273 is now unfeasible.
The URY273 close out team, had not made contact, on the date due, so we phased in a small S&R Team, to find the issue behind it.
The S&R Team reported that the URY273 storage and living complex had become over run by some sort of bacterium, and where investigating it to its origin. Now we have lost contact with the S&R Team, and from reports of late, the Kahraa infection is with in the range of the URY273 Project. We send the TSA team into the URY273 complex to hopefully salvage what they can, or remove the Kahraa infection before it becomes to big, and destroys the TSA them self.
The URY273 Complex has 3 main locations of bacterium – One is in the Cesspool, a second is in the Café Loading Dock, while a third is believed to be within the complex, but we are yet to know where.
The Resource nozzles throughout the complex are TSA Compatible, along with weld points. The reports from the S&R Team have also said that obtaining access to some areas was restricted.
Good Luck TSA Team

Comments
Some things to fix.
The red lights in power generator- these make this room HORRIDLY ugly
The very high celings in certain areas
The rails, all over the map, you can walk rightt over them, this is a BIG, problem
Doors, will they ramp your ENT count up?
R-speeds, i didnt check them, and i assume that you know what to do here
Hive area, to square, raindrops appear to be going up, sorta like they do when under a strobe light in the real world
Keep up the good work, you might have something here <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
EDIT-
I like your old sky lighting color better, i had a nice feel, the new red is really wierd, stick with the white
Oh something else very intresting happened to me on yer map amc in the marine base I was able to "electrify" the infantry portals hehe I placed a tf in front of the CC and a ip on both sides of tf and a armory on the other side of tf then afew turrets.I proceeded to electrify the tf,upgrade was finished I looked and the ip was electrified lol.It might be the way the rine base is built or something but I like it <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->.I believe this can be reproduced everytime.Alittle more testing should do the trick.I'll let ya's know what's up.
Oh when I was doing the electrification thing it kept switching to other things hmm I think this has allowed me to electrify the ip's I guess also of how close I put everything to one another.
I think this may be cool to electrify ip's maybe to early skulk rushes etc and that lone rambo skulk lol.
The rails, all over the map, you can walk rightt over them, this is a BIG, problem
Explain?
The rails are in fact 1 unit x 1 unit x length world brushes, its so that skulks can walk up them, unlike the {railname here - with clip texture rails that are around now.
Dave J uses the style i used (look at qnt open source)
<b>Hyperion2010</b>
I like hte bunk area the best...
RR or A-04?
---------------------
<b>R_speeds</b>
All r_speeds are within the old r_speed cap, of 800 - the max they hit is about 720 (looking out off rr double spawn door), and about 760 in commander view, next to the gen/base road
<b>Elect</b>
I was able to elect my arms lab much the same way, i think it is something to do with the way the T.S.A Out Post Alpha is set up.
Screen of elect arms lab - <a href='http://hl2hosting.com/amckern/ns_2wad0030.JPG' target='_blank'>http://hl2hosting.com/amckern/ns_2wad0030.JPG</a>
I think it might be the weldable doors, to protect T.S.A equitment, i will bug test this, or might just leave it - make some nice screen shots latter on.
<b>Ent Count</b>
The map has lots of entitys, and even worse texture data - so this map won't be offical - unless i do some major clean up
entity count -
Point entity 237
Brush entity 489 (How the hell did i get that many?)
amckern
i actually meant the rails on the stairs, when you run up to them (as a marine) you run over them becaue they are too low, just move them up and you should be ok
I will work on making the rails on the side of the stairs 48 units, and thats probley why i hear the hl metal sound when going up them<< ahh
The A-04 bunk was just a quick 5 min job, becuase i moved the hive back, i had to remove the hive sound room, that i had there in the 1st place - btw thanks
Also what do pplz think of the small room with the vending machines, and table in the vent? is that a better way to light it?
I found the sudjestion at one of the forum posts about 1 month ago, and thought i might use it
