Vertigo - By Midiguy or Vertigo is a Multiplayer level in Threewave Capture. This level is designed for Capture the Flag.
Like all other custom levels in Threewave Capture, this map was entirely designed to be used on their specific server. While it can be used outside of the server without the proper version of Threewave Capture, it will not be identical to how it was intended to be played.
Also note that all players spawn inside of their base when Capture the Flag is enabled. Spawn locations designates locations players spawn if Capture the Flag is disabled. In Capture the Flag, the flags themselves can be found on the upper floor of each base.
The 3.01 release of Threewave Capture was a hotfix for this level, removing a few Doors that were not defined in the level and were causing the server to crash.
If teamplay is not set to 768, this level will lead to E1M2: Castle of the Damned.

Glitches
- The level exit's location is not clearly defined and therefore it goes to the origin point along with a couple Doors. The player can hit the level exit earlier than was likely intended by using the Grappling Hook mode of the Axe on the sky in the Blue Base. Note that exact positioning and functionality is not consistent, meaning sometimes it will cause the player to exit while other times only the Doors opening and closing will be heard. Note that the Doors were removed in the 3.01 update, but the level exit remained.
