Hey guys 
So after checking the fastdl, I noticed that Panda attempted to run dr_wackyforest_hmx3b since it's in there. I'm not sure if it worked as this was an HmX exclusive map and exclusives maps are protected. Protected maps can't be ran anywhere else other than on HmX servers (which are long gone now). Now it's possible that it wasn't, if whoever uploaded it forgot to enable it.
I happen to be guy who made the HmX version, roughly 9 years go (credits still go to Wacker for the original one). Luckily, I still have both the full BSP and the VMF. Therefore, if you guys are down for it, we could resurrect it. Of course, it might not be great for 2025/2026 and for Panda standards, so I'm willing to spin up Hammer and make some additions and adjustements to it. For instance, add some elements to slow down rushers, add more hazards, adjust some traps and add minigames (and also remove the instant kill freerun button).
Here's a poll, feel free to vote and also post below so I can hear your thoughts and opinions.
For those who aren't old enough, dr_wackyforest is an old map made by Wacker, which can be found on GameBanana: https://gamebanana.com/mods/74607.
However, this version is insanely broken (and that was already with the old DR plugin before Neu came). Wacker being long gone, I took it upon myself to make a fixed + revamped version. That version was an HmX exclusive at the time, which is why it can't be found anywhere.
