UT4_HERRING by codemadeflesh

Ulvön was the location for the largest factory of surströmming (fermented herring) in Sweden but after original founder
Bertil Broström passed away the new multi-national corporate management forced up profits while letting security go lax
until the build-up of methane gas in the sewers ignited and caused all stored tinned cans to blow up as well.
The resulting toxic cloud forced nearby city of Örnsköldsvik to be evacuated for two weeks and the facility was left
derelict for decades until intrepid members of the Urban Terror clan easy Company found it and decided to turn it into
their training ground. With the friendly help of clans Haagenti, Head Shots Only and Urban Terroritz they cleaned up
the place, repaired, re-built and added new obstacles from a occupied oil depot until it has become a excellent training
facility. So good in fact that eC decided to open the site for the general public. However the waters still remain
lethally acid so do not bring your bathing suit.

Welcome to Herring!
Now you got to ask yourself; red or blue?


Notes:
This map has very detailed geometry and many textures. Perfomance on lower end machines may vary.
I made this map looks in mind and put performance on backburner, thus r_speeds peak at 14k and average
between 7k and 10k. The lighting and texturing is done for r_mapoverbrightbits 0 and r_overbrightbits 0 according to
Urban Terror 4 standards. A speed boost for older video cards and/or low video ram is setting r_detailtextures 0 in console, 1 to set it back.
