HDR: This map supports HDR, so if you think your videocard is good enough (DX9 and ~256mb+) you can activate HDR in HL2DM (mat_hdr_enabled 1 in console or Options|Video|Advanced...|High Dynamic Range -> Full). If you get performance problems you should turn it off :) if this does not help you could even deactivate reflections (by mat_specular 0) or normalmaps (mat_bumpmap 0).

HDR: Die Map unterstützt HDR, welches jedoch ziemlich performancelastig ist, deshalb würde ich es nur bei besseren Graphikkarten empfehlen zu aktivieren (mat_hdr_enabled 1 in der Konsole oder Options|Video|Advanced...|High Dynamic Range -> Full). Sollten trotz abgeschalteten HDR Performance Probleme vorliegen so kann man noch die Spiegelungen in der Map (mit mat_specular 0) und auch die Normalmaps (mat_bumpmap 0) ausschalten.
