    I've played in the so mentioned new map server and even that the people are talking to much of it, the topic of the pictures of the server have like 150 post and the server is runnig perfectly guess what, NO ONE CONNECTS there.

    Is a very good server, the maps are great and the mod is excellent so I think that the players should be more interested in playing in the server because I can imagine that it was a very hard job and I guess it was made cause the people demands of new maps and all the shit.

    I think that the making of the new maps and server was for the players, what players should do at least is play there.

    peace!

    first off yes its down and were working on getting it back up

    the big challenge with getting a custom map server populated is that the map downloads are sooooo big that people lose patience and move on
    (no one wants to wait when they can play right?)

    We even had one of our members create a MapSync (it was awesome) utility to help with the problem but still nobody has the patience

    I love playing new COD4 maps and wish it was busier myself


    maybe we can try to schedule a time to get as many peeps in there as possible

    cheers

    ahh, I see. do you have any guesses as to when it'll be back up? gotta say, I REALLY enjoyed those maps. They didn't even take that long to download for me, I got an average of like 500 kb/s on them.

    well, you're right, that's the first thing that I think when I started playing with the new maps but well I wait for it.

    maybe you can just make a patch and upload it in torrent, so we just download the whole package and patch the game or well, I don't know...

    ... just wanna play with more people, I the mean time you have my support, I'll be playing there as soon the server is back up :D

    the schedule think is a good idea tough let's do something like that.

    sounds good man. I've been periodically checking the server to see if it's back up, as well as checking this thread for any news.

    wow! the server is great, the maps are awsome and big and simple to memorize, I hope that people play on this server as much as in COD4 hard core.

    Sup you guys! Welcome to the forums!
    Awesome to see new people here. I agree with what you said. We just need to get this server out there but it's pretty difficult. We did spam the other servers but I guess people can't read or they are just tooo lazy to check it. I'm trying to look up a way to redirect them to our AWE custom map server if the hardcore and stock server are full.

    AWE Custom Map Hardcore Server Rotation:
    Here is the map rotation:
    gametype ctf map mp_ctan
    gametype war map mp_bacalao
    gametype dom map mp_burg
    gametype war map mp_pk_harbor
    gametype dom map mp_docks_n
    gametype war map mp_cc
    gametype ctf map mp_crossfire
    gametype war mp_kob_breakout
    gametype sab map mp_pow_rld
    gametype ctf map mp_broadcast
    gametype war map mp_pripyat
    gametype dom map mp_i2
    gametype ctf map mp_beltot
    gametype war map mp_qmx_matmata
    gametype war map mp_chateaub
    gametype ctf map mp_strike
    gametype war map mp_burgundy_bulls
    gametype dom map mp_steamlab
    gametype ctf map mp_overgrown
    gametype war map mp_stalingrad
    gametype sab map mp_freeb
    gametype ctf map mp_farm
    gametype war map mp_dust2_classic
    gametype dom map mp_doneck

    Map Pack:
    http://www.uangames.net/redirects/COD4/usermaps2.rar - 582mb

    You can download the maps here if redirect is not working
    http://www.fpsbanana.com/maps/games/605

    Example: E:\Games\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\usermaps\mp_kob_breakout
    inside the mp_kob_breakout folder should include:
    mp_kob_breakout.ff
    mp_kob_breakout.iwd
    mp_kob_breakout_load.ff

    all maps should have these 3 files (.ff . iwd & load.ff)

    AFAIK, you can't redirect when full without a mod to do it... that requires ranking to be gone which you know we can't have.. :p

    the server's been stuck at steamlab for almost a day now. the main problem with it just seems to be the amount of time it doesn't work.

    it's back up, it should work fine if no one (admins) manually rotates it or switches to a different map.

    hah, it's down already. looks like there's something more to it other than simple map changing.
