And here’s a lot of others, not sure how well they play:

Wondering with ATW3: does not having a Tormentor or radar for the Strogg make the last stage too easy? Just swim, and they’ll never find you I would think. I guess that’s a bad way to do it in stopwatch though, it would take some time.

I’ve asked MaD if they want to give this map a shakedown on Tuesday night.

First impressions

Submitted by ltmon on Sun, 28/09/2008 - 21:03.

Just played it through…

1. It’s a small map, but there’s some complexity. Lots of nice little vantage points, and good snipers are going to be invaluable.
2. The attention to detail is pretty cool. I like how the computer has a display of the hack level on it while you hack: shows the author put some time and thought in.
3. A few glitches. Clipping, and getting stuck between (e.g.) trains and hills and having to respawn. I assume there’ll be some exploits or something, but what maps don’t on release.
4. Pretty intensive on the ol’ graphics card, just the amount of stuff always on screen. I’m probably going to almost have to tune down a bit further.
5. That last fight through to grab the blueprints is going to be hell on the GDF (through the trucks and other obstacles). There’s not too many ways to traverse through, which means mines will be a PITA. Add a hyperblaster trained on a convenient choke point and it’s going to be a bit lemming like. Guess we’ll see how it plays out.

I’m currently putting together an IPX Map Pack with about 30 Maps

After playing sum they are a bit small and in BETA form therfore we should try them

thats the plan

Submitted by n0mad on Sat, 04/10/2008 - 10:35.

Thats the plan
I’m just messing around with Mega Textures and seeing if they work from the Pak file with a few special tweaks therfore
making it a one step drop into the base directory. I have a few maps that are not working this way but sum are working well.

Also I’ve created an installer to do this automaticlly but i’ve never been fond of third party free installers therfore I think I’ll
stick to just a rar file that you unrar into the base directoy.

Anyway off to try another few maps but yer I’m up to 30 so far and a few stand outs are;

> Meltdown
> Arctic Assault (MCP fun)
> Andes

Map auto-download

Submitted by Robag on Sun, 19/10/2008 - 11:34.

Hi HP

gr8 work with the server u 2 n0mad

here is a link that may help with redirecting the map auto-download to the external webserver

<—-snip http://community.enemyterritory.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21058&highli... —->

net_serverDownload is the mode selector for downloads.
0 = off
1 = client exits and opens si_serverURL
2 = redirect to EXTERNAL web server (ie: another process, or another host)
3 = direct to INTERNAL (embedded HTTP server)

I believe mode 2 requires net_serverDlBaseURL, net_serverDlTable to be set.

It’s worth mentioning that when using the embedded HTTP server, you can also set limits on per-client and global bandwidth consumption for downloads so this should make auto-downloads play real nice with game servers – see net_httpServerPlayerBW and net_httpServerGlobalBW. If you have a 10mbit pipe to Internet, then setting global to 500 would limit map downloads, etc, to a combined max of 500KB/s, or roughly 40-50% of server’s capacity. These controls are excellent, IMO.
