Dave J, maker of cs_tire, de_dust, and the misspelled de_cbble, has been interviewed by gamesmack.org (SEXY design). Here's a slice:
Grab that whole shindig right here.I really love de_cbble. Personally I think the map is the best around. The textures are amazing in their detail, even down to the moss growing on the lower part of the walls! Are you pleased with the Counter-Strike community's reaction to de_cbble?
I've actually had more response regarding de_dust, which I suppose can only be good. =)
Overall, I'm quite pleased with de_cbble. I knew it can never be as good as Dust, but for those who need a change, then it's one of the alternatives. From what I've heard, most people have found MacMan's textures breathtaking.
