When the three Polo’s finally returned to Venice, the city state was at war with neighbooring Genoa. It has been assumed that the Polos travelled along the Northern Silk Road, although the possibility of a southern route has also been advanced by some scholars. This trip, which would end up taking 24 years since they stayed for very long in China, is the one chronicled by Marco Polo in his book. Later, the Polo brother’s embarked on a new journey, and this time they brought Marco with them.

Even before Marco was born, the brothers had travelled extensively, setting up trading posts in Constantinople, Sudak, Crimea, and the western part of the Mongolian Empire. In English, this book is also known as The Travels of Marco Polo, and it describes – among other things – Polo’s travels along the Silk Road and the various Asian regions and cities that he traverses, including China.Ī citizen of the Republic of Venice, Polo grew up in a family where both his father Niccoló and uncle Maffeo were merchants. It should mostly happen on lower end computers, but who knows.One of the most well-known Europeans to travel the silk road in Medieval times was Marco Polo (1245-1324), a merchant, explorer and writer who recorded his travels in the book “ Livres des merveilles du monde” (Book of the world’s marvels), published around the year 1300. It seems I've managed to happen a little more rarely in the latest update, but it still happens. I've spent hours looking, Googling, everything.

'Too many indices for index buffer' No one really knows what this is. I could not find a fix for this, so I decided to not put cubemaps in :( There IS a fix for it, however, it ends up making many props overly-shiny. SteamPipe games have been having problems with building cubemaps. I put a lot of work into this so just message me if you think something should be changed :) Be aware that sometimes Steam removes links Before you download, however, keep in mind that in the Steam Subscriber Agreement () you do not have permission to redistribute my files or edits of my files without my permission. I understand that a lot of mapmakers use the workshop for ideas, and I personally love looking at how someone else made their map, so here are the download links to the VMF and the BSP if you prefer the file over the GMA. If you notice any problems or have any ideas for the map, I ask that you message me, rather than re-creating the map and re-uploading it. Only the main layout is really based off of it. TTT_Silk_Road was originally based off of the main campsite in the Battlefield 4 Map, Silk Road, however, there is only a little resemblance. The map *CAN* support up to 70 players, but it is NOT RECOMMENDED, as there are not enough weapons, and the map is really not meant for that many players. You WILL need CS Source in order to run this, but that goes with any TTT map. No work is needed to be done by the user.) Cool mechanics are also brought in, like being able to shoot through the tents and generators affecting lights when blown up.

(Don't worry about the texture and sound, they are loaded automatically. In addition to that, there is only 1 custom texture, and 1 custom sound, which means this map will download much faster than other maps. With plenty of tactical positions, interesting traps, and easter eggs, this map brings a lot of re-playability for a TTT game.

After 2 months/my entire summer, it is complete! TTT_Silk_Road is finally here!
