-Before you start mapping, MAKE YOUR OWN <MAPNAME>.CFG !
-The config/default_map_settings.cfg is only an example and
-might change with every release, so you might lose the layout
-of your map !
-Use the defaul_map_settings.cfg as base for your own .cfg, comment
-'texture-lines' you won't use and uncomment those you want. Choose
-which skymap you d'like, etc.
-
-Note the comments on particular mapmodel´s usage.

-:Maps for the ActionCube Project:
-
-If you want send us the maps you will make, you need to read the following 
-lines. These rules/definitions are necessary because the maps who comes with an
-ActionCube release should be high-grade.
-
-
-- AC maps should look a bit grim, dusky .At the moment the texture set is by no means perfect, 
-  so choosing the right texture for the job might take some time.
-
-- The theme should be industrial/realistic setting
-	You can mix them with nature-stuff when we have done some 
-	nature-mapmodels (plants,trees,etc)
-
-- Be frugal with lights:
-	- no heavy lights
-	- dont use _some_ different colors for lights
-                
-
-- No dark corners/places for campers
-
-- Be frugal with mapmodels:
-	- mapmodels slow down the gamespeed, thats a problem on older machines
-	- place them well, without repeating
-                - don´t use a mapmodel just because it´s there, it must be somewhat reasonable
-                 -less is more if placed well ;) 
-
-- There _must_ be one start place for each (2) teams.
-	The map should be 'a line' between these place, there must be more than
-	one way to rush from the one place to the other, like (as example) 
-	cs maps.
-
-- Own textures and mapmodels:
-	feel free to include custom textures/mapmodels, but be aware that they might need to be
-	discussed with the ChiefMapper/AssistantChiefMapper.
-                Any custom stuff you want to use must either be totally free to use or made by yourself. You must include
-                the original authors copyright notes, and have author´s permission to use if required.
-	
-- Desired average wqd: 2000-3000 (leaves enough room for models)
-	Absolute maximum wqd  :6000 (special cases might be subject to discussion).
-
--> Check the maps that are already included, your map should have a layout somewhat simillar to this.
-
-General Tips : Use solids wisely to allow for a map of reasonable size. Due to more mapmodels and higher player/hudgun polycount performance 
-                          is very important. 
-                          Leave enough room for strafing. Intended to be a fast paced game enough space to strafe around is neccesairy.
-                          While building the rough layout it is a good idea to spam the whole level with small, high contrast light sources
-                         (2/3/4 255 lights) to simulate a highly detailed scene regarding wqd count.
-                         Replace those lights when going into details.
-                         The current texture set is somewhat sensitive to very bright light, a good effect can be achieved by using  (7-12  100-180) raduis/strengh  lights  to 
-                         add some "ambient" lighning first , and use smaller 2/3 255 for the highlights (where there are lamps/lamp models)   
-                         by no means use the L button please. :)
