New Maps

Subject: New Maps

Ok am on the hunt for new maps. So far I've fouund the install for de_venice although am not 100% sure about that map even. Am thinking of adding a couple of surf maps - its tricky at first but can be quite fun and is very surreal. Also am gonna go find the installs for some of the better maps I've seen on public servers. blah blah blah Basically I'm telling you all this cos all the new maps will go into one huge map pack. It will be the only new map pack for the foreseeable future so if you have a favourite thats not on the server, let me know. Be picky though as we dont want the menus to become unusable. and no you can't have rio, its not out for source yet

ok so done my research and my nominations for the new map pack are: => surf_skyworld - very silly and requires new skills but yes it is possible to surf in CSS => knas_speedcastle - just because its different => glass_chaos - best of the glass levels in my opinion - we should have one glass level and this is it I believe => de_NewportBeach - very well done - reminisscent of the old classic the cs_mansion => de_Bora - for those of you who like small levels - its very small but perty => de_avril - this is staying on the list - its fucking going in - killer level => de_abbaye - oh so pretty and very 3d for those of you missing rio => cs_retranche - its gritty and scary and dark in there but do you really wanna switch on that flashlight? => cs_kismayo - nice in places and a bit of a rio replacement - great gameplay => cs_junkyard - very well put together - more grist for the mill in order to be considered, levels needed to be small, feel professional and use HDR etc My near misses were as follows: => de_storm_h - exactly the same as the old one - may as well play 1.6 => de_cpl_fire - good map but too industrial for my taste - not a good reason to dump it I know - I'll put it in if anyone asks => de_allyrush_s = brutally simple but fun 1 on 1 or 1 on 2 - in? => cs_assault_zt - exactly the same as the original assault - why bother => de_monach - pretty but nonsense and you cant get inside the buildings => de_losttemple - another aztec - yawn! => bhd_convoy - tempted to put this in but its just not perty enough => de_venice - I'll include this if anyone else thinks its good => de_quebec - nice cultural references and pretty in places but too damn big and not enough attention to detail what do you lot think? can anyone find me the installs for the ones on the list? I kind of think we should have one frenzie level too but if so it needs to be special...

fixed your router http port forwarding for port 8888 and 8889 so when you make the map pack it can be downloaded your hardware sensors also work again

about time! did you claw your way in through ssh? So, people, you've all been moaning about the same old maps - I expect you to play test my suggestions and give me feedback. If you can't be arsed play testing my nominations then feedback along the lines of "Oh nick, you're the greatest for doing all this research for us. I expect your nominations are the perfect ones and I just know we'll all be so deliriously happy with the wonderful new maps you found with all your hard work that we'll never piss and moan again as long as we live - we promise!" will be fine.
