Ok I want a mappack for our server v2.0
I want The Best of The Best maps! Not hundreds cuz I don't want to upload so much and ask our host to reserve so much diskspace, but just as many maps as possible. Preferably all maps anyone might callvote for Smiley
I think 50-75 maps is more than enough (standard oa maps not included), but which? Wink That's why I post this, to ask you.

So my request: which maps should a server certainly have? (exept for the standard oa maps). Or where can i find a nice mappack with maps almost everyone has?
Q3 maps allowed too (there are some q3 maps which are pretty nice. Not many, but there are ^^)

I will update this post later

Duels:
aerowalk (hub3aeroq3)
bloodrun (ztn3dm1)
pul1duel-oa

for FFA:
fr3dm1

for CTF:
brickyard
13vast/bubctf
mlctf1beta (but it will be OA map prolly in 0.8.6)

for Elimination/Clan Arena:
mlca1 (it should be in 0.8.6 too)

It's a good idea to review maps from cpma and osp packs - some of them are just great.

Problem is that many good maps require textures which are not included in OA yet. But this can be easily solved with gpl-q3a2oa-textures.pk3 - this file is available on many servers and replaces original q3 textures.

About Q3 maps. Many of them are just very good maps, classics, I wish OA had such fantastic ones. But I'm afriad it'd be illegal to use them on the server without id's permission.

anyway great idea with a mappack, Luc.

q3wcp and other q3w... maps are from original Threewave CTF Mod. They are free to use, just like any other custom maps from mods (like OSP, cpma, Rocket arena and so on) or seperate custom maps.

By Q3 maps I meant only the levels that were originally included in id games: Quake 3 Arena and Team Arena. As those games are not freeware, maps can't be legally used without permission (besides: to use them we must first extract bsp and aas files from q3a pk3s as well as textures and so on. It can be done easily, but is illegal:)). Id Tech 3 is unleashed, but all graphical content of id games is not.

It causes a problem for us - many custom maps use original id textures. And some of those textures still don't have their equivalent in OA (there will be full texture replacement in 0.9.0 - that's the big goal). So to avoid big white squares, .pk3 I mentioned in my last post is needed. But as I said it's not a big problem, this pk3 can be found everywhere. I have one in my fridge Smiley

ok. so much for this crap Smiley This weekend I'll add some maps to my list.
