Map description         : Test box map for www.quake3world.com forums!



Notes                   : Someone posted a picture of these stairs in real life.

                          And said they'd be difficult to do.  SO I did em, just

                          for the hell of it.

                          

			  Oh, and I scaled up the steps in size *ALOT* just to

                          make a little map out of this.



                          If anyone knows where these stairs are in real life

                          then let me know!

                          

Thanks to               : id software, without you guys this would not exist

Mad Props to            : IBM, for making a laptop that I can actually run Q3

                          on, albeit at a lowly 25FPS. :-)

                          LvL for a great level review/pimping site.
