Anyway, with a LOT of quicksaving, I managed to get past that part and beat all of Strange World. I have to say, this pack is still a blast to play all these years later! I had forgotten a lot of it over time. There are definitely some glaring BSP problems in this pack, but once you get by those - the visuals are not all that bad even today. I can't believe no mapper to date has used the idea of a sunset/sunrise... It really is a cool idea. I know that UB recently said that the skytown map "looks like ass" over in the MOTW thread, but I actually think it still holds up pretty well. Sure, there are far better looking town maps out there today (even in ONP), but there are also so few SkyTown maps to speak of. This one is actually pretty big, and the visuals hold up better than some other older map packs out there... For fun, I also changed the music to "SkyCity.umx" (the beta music), and it fits perfectly! It is much more refreshing to hear than the standard SkyTown.umx.
By the way, if anyone wants an HD Railgun skin with a much better firing sound effect, download this and overwrite the old file from Strange World (may break coop support). The skin was so simple that it took me less than an hour to create (The skin isn't perfect due to an incredibly low-poly model):
