[b]Terd's Map Rotation Corner[/b]

:twisted: If you have any suggestions about the map rotation, put it here!

I really enjoy Carentan, Pavlov, Rocket, Harbor, Pow camp, Ponyri, Neuville and Cassino... I'm still researching limiting tanks by map name so that may bring Cassino back into the realm of possibilities...

I'd like to see the original maps and the new UO versions of them too. I still looking for a good place to download the UO map pack from. I think I'll have to upload it to my comcast.net website.

I'll add some of the UO maps tonight. Should I take out Cassino until you can take out the tanks Adogg?

Yes ... still don't have an answer on that one yet. Make sure that Ralph updates the link for the UO map pack first though.

I LOVED the HQ games. Can we have some 'mo?

I emailed the AWE guy about the map rotation not working correctly. He said it should be looking at all the maps but I need to make sure all the old awe files are gone. I'll check that tomorrow.

I restarted the server this morning and verified that cassino did not have any tanks. Put it back in boss!

I never took it out. I'll add a DOM map though.

Here's the answer to the mp_pavlov. (HQ) error we saw last night:

So its the quotation marks, right?

Yes

I'll fix the Pavlov. thing tonight. Thats a good map for HQ.

Finally! And change any thing in else in the map rotation? Add more maps? And gametypes?

More DOM and BAS but no S&D. I'll also add back a few HQ maps. Right now its Pavlov, POW, harbor and one or two others. I'll add HQ casinno, Sicily, and Kursk. Its not too big of a map for HQ.

All sounds good to me ... escpically since the voting is back on.

Just a heads up ... there is a limit to how many maps you can place in there. I've read posts that too much will cause the server to crash.

How many is too much? I took out a ton of HQ maps last week so if I add 5 or 6 more I don't think it will be too bad. Also, once we add the UO maps I'll take out some of the old ones.

Can't find the link to the AWEmod.com forum but it's a lot of maps ... you could probably add quite a few more before hitting the wall... just keep it in mind and think about ones you want to thin out.

Ralph and I are going to try and improve the map voting schedule to put greater emphasis on the maps that often get overlooked so that players can play Carentan all day.

Adogg, I need access to the new server so I can add the UO maps tonight.

Quick question: Are you going to be replacing the standard COD maps with the updated UO versions? That would be wonderful

lol, not much difference in the UO maps anyway. just a hell of a lot more obstacles, which make smaller maps hehe

The maps are in, all we need to do is reset the server. I left the old maps in for now. If it gets to be too much we can take them out. Some of the older ones are better than the new ones like the harbor.

Personally I like the new Harbor better just because it's easier to stay alive for more than 10 seconds when the server is really full. However, there are some maps that are better as old ones (ie. Brecourt... not even sure if they have a new one). I like the new obstacles / 'secret' passages and all that stuff. Gives new life to tired maps. However it is your server, and I'll play no matter what .
