comments: 
------------------------------
Toxic Feud is an evac map focused on tactical team gameplay. It’s no rez nor mod and it’s done for AvpII. Alien Lifecycle offers additional features. Class Weapon Sets should be off, as gaining supplies is an essential part of the map. Sorry for the preds out there, but this is a matter to be settled between humans and aliens only. 

As I had not yet the chance to test this map in multiplay, there might be some major bugs. So please report any bugs or comments you have about this map to drex@brainpain.net. Consider this version an experimental one, that will be modified or polished based on community feedback, if possible. In particular balancing the map without extensive testing is very hard. Fortunately you can make a lot of adjustments to balance the gameplay yourself: 

-   set an evac time limit for the marines, 
-   allow 0, 1 or 2 exosuits, 
-   adjust lives for evacs and attackers, 
-   try Queen Molding and Alien Lifecycle. 

  To find your way down to the evac zone, I recommend to take a look at the detailed description of the map

installation: 
-----------------------------
(1) Extract the zip file into your AvP2 directory: The zip file contains a subfolder structure that must be maintained. 
For example, using Winzip do the following: 

click "extract" 
make sure the boxes "all files" are "use foldernames" are checked 
extract 

The file "toxic_feud.dat" should have been placed in the "evac" folder in your AVP2 directory (usually c:\programme\fox\aliens vs. predator 2) as follows (\maps\worlds\multi\evac). See screenshot "install". 

(2) Start Alien versus Predator 2. 

(3) In the launcher klick on "Options" and type in the following command line: -rez maps 
See screenshot "run"

(4) Check the box "always specify these command-line parameters" , if desired. 

 
To test the map's features in single player deathmatch mode, you can do this: copy the dat file into a "Dm" folder inside the "multi" folder, then start a lan session with "Toxic Feud " as deathmatch (dm) map.
