Looking for a specific DM map

Someone made a DM map a couple of years back. The map was basically a series of overlapping bridges connected by tunnels which acted as ramps to get to the lower and higher areas of the map. The entire ground area at the bottom of the map was comprised of lava.
This is an exceptionally good DM map and I would like to include it in VSR. Does anyone know anything about this map, like who the author is or where I can get it?

Yep that's the one. I will have to do some tweaking though so bots will use the bridge segments properly. Right now they're likely normal segments that are meant to be linked (f) to bridge struts -- and maybe change the weapons crates a bit (to include Hadean weapons) but the rest of the map looks good.
BTW, have you guys seen K-Barter's tunnel DM maps? They're completely indoor maps with custom tunnels and platforms. I do think that multilevel maps like that are interesting.

I have seen it, are the assets available for others to use/modify?

I sent a PM to him using the BZU archives. Not sure he'll actually get an email notification though. I don't have any other 'leads' on how to contact him as contact info only states his age and country of residence, not email; website or anything else I can use. Couldnt find anything on the facebook group either.
Does anyone know if Mr.X is the same person as -X- (of X-Mod)?

No, different guy. We spoke a lot when the first iteration of the CP was underway, and if ever I can actually connect to Windows Live again I'll give you his e-mail.

Can someone point me to this map with custom tunnels?
Also, ZA, you should probably make some special bridge pieces that have the correct AI pathing and name them with a very stock style naming scheme so they can be included in the patch proper at some point.
I have a ton of custom tunnels that allow you to make massive rooms and things if those are of any interest to anyone. They also allow junctions between small and large tunnels.

I'm thinking of naming the bridge segments 'ibbseg01te' (for 'tunnel entry').
I am interested in seeing your custom tunnels.
