Giving final touches for HOTZ with a sound overhaul! - HotZ 2.45 to 2.65

This is my first map I have ever uploaded into a workshop on steam and I love to improve it whenever I can :) So I finally found out how to work with interactive Wwise sounds! Wwise is a new soundsystem implemented into the source engine by Monochrome. The official guide does not cover interactive sounds at all since they never made one. This update is also focused in sounds which does lack a little in HOTZ. There are also some improvements for this map that I noted while I watching all the let's play videos on Youtube :) I hope you like the changes:
