Hmmm... that looks too much like the same operations i made with Havoc - enjoy the comparison: http://www.planetavp.com/mods/motw/hadleyshope/
Sorry, I didn't see this earlier. There's no denying it. Hevoc DID provide me with the original Hadley's Hope raw map file for this Project. He is credited as doing so in the readme:
"Base : An heavily modified version of Hevoc's 'Hadleys Hope' is featured in this map. "
and
"My Thanks Goes to These People: ... To Hevoc who created the original Hadleys Hope map that was the inspiration for this Project."
Hevoc's original Hadley's Hope map was extensively revised for this Project. It was used as a base map but completely torn down and rebuilt with many, many locations changed to accommodate the gameplay, optimisations and additions well beyond the original map.
That being said, it's still much of Hevoc's work. I never denied it.
Also, it's unfortunate that planetavp.com is no longer with us. IGN took all the Planet sites down a few years back. Too bad, really. I wrote a lot of reviews for custom maps for both 'AvP' and 'AvP2' appearing on that site. Including the one you linked to.
Hope this clears things up a bit.

Hey there (:
Thanks for the credit! I did very true indeed release the bulk of me ED-files before leaving for new frontiers - with the explicit intention of having people using them one way or another. Glad that it was used.
One very dark frustration for most mappers 'back 'in 'em 'days where the lack of ed-files. On the other hand, those ED-files that were released by Monolith, they were used a lot by the mappers, and to my taste maybe had a too direct impact on the released content for a long time in terms of style as the result of various prefabs. Though, this made the work of some extraordinary mappers more unique and interesting. Psykore and Redriot would be great mentions here
I'm right now reinstalling AVP2 and will most likely have the pleasure to play Hostile Appetite this weekend - looking forward!
