This is my 2nd map i have made. It has 2 teams which have 2 flags each. I have also added a jail i can remove if it is not required. Here are some pics:
All 4 bases are like this.
Mid High.
Both Mid Lows are like this.
The Jail.
Heres the link to the file:

Looks like it needs lighting. Make sure you hit the 'final compile' option, in the compile menu.

You need to light your maps before you release them. Also, make sure you don't have any leaks.

Will put some lighting when i get around to it. Which final compile, im pretty sure i used the high quality for that one but that might have been the wrong file. I'll put some lighting in and i'll wait until i find out which compile to do.

I've attached a demo of things you should revise. I've also uploaded the map to the beta server for testing. See PM for details.

Ok, after a while i found time to do beta 4. Ive fixed all of the textures problems and also added a bit down the bottom where im considering putting the back door entrance. Problem with the backdoor is there are 2 ways to cap. So im still deciding.
Here it is:

No, i mean that there are 2 places to cap, meaning that there would be 4 ways to take one or both flags to cap them.
Base 1 Normal
Base 1 Backdoor
Base 2 Normal
Base 2 Backdoor
Much more difficult when you are on your own again 2 or 3, mabye even 1.

You should probably just make the caps at the main bases.

Both are main. I might move the capping point and make a new area up higher above the ladder at the ends of the map. Then somehow run a backdoor up there. Still thinking about b5 and also wondering if anybody thinks there is anything that needs fixing in b4.

Well I just downloaded b4 and took a look around. I like the map but those caps are treacherous if someone actually gets the flag. My suggestion is to make a tunnel going out the back of each flag and make it so that the tunnel loops around to the back and then make like a path to go low and one to go mid. I will post a pic of what I am trying to explain if I get around to making it. This will also make the map new player friendly.
