"underwater_trailer_lambda.hpm"

I'm rather new to the tools, but I don't think I've ever seen .hpm files before. Is this a new HPL Movie format? Cool

Luis is a machine, I didn't know he was solely responsible for the tools! That's quite an undertaking! And is it just me, or does he look a little like Russell Brand? XD

I think it's new map format. HPM = Howard Philips Map

Ahhh of course! I assumed it was a "movie" format because it was the trailer scene, but of course trailers and movies are designed in the level editor, too. D'oh!

EDIT: It seems that the .map extension is still being used:

So, what is the .hpm extension for?
