Hello friends, freaks, and TF2 veterans alike and welcome to another custom TF2 maps video.

For new viewers:
Today's video showcases the custom VS Saxton Hale and Trade map that I have working on known as "Mannopolis." Mannopolis is a fictional futuristic like city owned by Saxton Hale himself. Mannoopolis is placed in (currently) non-cannon "modern day" Badlands Region and is part of also part of an unofficial "TF2 Freak" universe. Mannopolis itself is structured as a high-tech and futuristic city which includes massive skyscrapers, a sky road where numerous hovercars travel along it, a bluish color scheme, and is home to the famous Mannopolis Mannco Shopping Mall. Mannopolis also has a slightly similar appearance to "Australia" as seen in the TF2 comics.

For returning viewers:
I have recently done a massive update to my Mannopolis map. For starters, many hover cars have been added and they can be seen flying above the map in four separate routes. The map is now under a full/normal VVIS compile and no longer has a lag/ping increase issue possibly seen in previous videos. The shopping mall itself has an actual parking lot now with numinous cars parked as well as some parking lots on the buildings in the main city area. For lore updates, Bonk Girl is referred to as "Electrolass" by the Mannopolis citizens and this name is also present if the map is played on my FF2 server. Saxton Hale himself is called "Mr. Hale" when on the map and I may soon replace his voice with the new offical Vscript Saxton Hale voice. The map also seems to run a lot better now with my finds mentioning how they get 100 plus on the map and that annoying "Render Overflow" error seems to be gone for good now.

The goal for my map is to be a custom VS Saxton Hale map, a custom Freak Fortress 2 map, a custom map for Trade Servers, and with the goal of getting this map added to the game officially using the new Vscript VS Saxton Hale code. This map also has set lore to it that has to do with the Freak Fortress 2/VS Saxton Hale gamemode and the city itself. Brief summary of lore explained below:

Freak Fortress 2 map/universe lore:
Being a part of the TF2 Freak Universe, Mannopolis has faced attacks from various monsters and evil TF2 freaks such as the Vagineer species, Gentle Spy, Christian Brutal Sniper and more. As a result, Mannopolis has a rather powerful and sturdy police force that fights crime, monsters, hippie- (wait what!) and more with the help of Saxton Hale himself. Additionally, Mannoplis is also under the constant protection from Electrolass A.K.A Bonk Girl (who shows up in this video) along with her two partners and friends of Bonk Boy and the Ninjineer. Together, these three (with the addition of a fourth character known as Chozo) make up the famous "Mannopolis Defenders."

Official TF2/VSH lore
As I do plan on getting this map added to the game officially, I have a sort of "backup" lore/story if I'm not allowed to use unofficial characters. The lore for the possible official version of Mannopolis is set in a timeline that is 1-3 years before the arrival of the TF2 Freaks (a prequal of sorts) and the current threats to the city are the crime lords or mafia teams, troublemakers that cause chaos around the city, and the numerous shoplifters that attempt to steal from the Mannopolis shopping mall. If I am allowed to use some "TF2 Freaks" the only ones that may be a part of this lore is Bonk Boy, Gentle Spy, and possible Christain Brutal Sniper.

Stay tuned to my channel as I will continue to upload more updates that I to my map which will include music updates, and a version running the new official Vscript VSH code.
