We started running this map I stumbled upon recently... ctf_jumbojet_v3. The map is really a piece of shit... but I have it available for voting. Well it seems HAX found the same map, except they renamed the file CTF_JumboJet_V3.
Notice a difference? Talk about desperate for attention and players.

I keep wanting to see this map, but it never wins the vote... oh wellz. So basically they just capitalized some letters. Are they not allowed to use the same maps?

lol, there's no exclusivity on maps. I just found it humerous that they capitalized it as a way to make it stand out to ctf fans as "NEW CTF MAP!1"

what a load of S**T.
why would it matter if it is capitalized or not, its the same freekin map. once you spend 1 second reading the name, you will realize its the same. personally i prefer things to be all lowercase. it makes everything seem more neat in my mind.

i heard about this map some time back, myke installed it about 3-4 months ago but i've never seen it played. so what if he installed a map you found? at the time that he installed it we were all begging on private forum for new maps, so he delivered to spice things up. its not to get more players and win that #1 server title, myke doesn't even have time for taht shit anymore, he hasn't been online in months. thank you for letting us borrow this map, and thanks for finding it WDF.. if you have more, or can convert openfire, canalzone2, and dm_mulch like we talked about from TFC that would be even greater.. http://www.clanhax.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=472 we are actively seeking new maps and Durden is tryign to program some as well here's a copy of my post with the links to pictures and source maps for the tfc maps: take some maps from fortress forever and TFC www.thecatacombs.nethttp://www.planetfortress.com/jmcstfmapzone/tfcopenfire.htmhttp://www.planetfortress.com/jmcstfmapzone/tfccz2.htmthese were 2 of my favorite maps We need this for DM: http://www.planetfortress.com/jmcstfmapzone/tfcmulch_dm.htmits 2 massive rooms with viewing areas that specators can watch ppl duel it out one of my most favorite maps.. cant remember its name but it was a huge map with 2 castles in the mountain rocks seperated by a large valley / canyons.. it also had a large bridge connecting to the equal sized bases.. Maybe valiums remembers? There used to be a lot of heavy weapons guys and snipers who would try to whore the bridge, and soldiers would try to camp the canyons.. there was also a tunnel that went from one side of the base to the other, down below the base and up into the flag room. it was a lot of fun and had multiple entrances into the base including a large window you could climb a ladder directly, take a side walkway alongside the cliff, or if you were good enough rocket jump directly into.. with so many openings and routes, it made for more cap opportunities and since it was kinda large there was more opportunities for 1v1 dm's while running with flag or trying to defend

I was just trying to get a rise out of you guys, reap... Nothing personal.  If I didn't want you to see it I would have posted it behind locked doors :)

Also, I know Murdy is working on Dustbowl.... I'll talk to some of the mappers here and see if we can't get some of those other classics ported.

Well, I think he said that... I know he's working on a night map at the same time which will come out before... I know he was getting angry at Dustbowl.

we have some version of dustbowl on our server, its pretty fun but there are a lot of those purple / black checkered things on it. Kinda laggy too if I recall. But that was a pretty good map back in the day as well.. when playing it a lot of people didn't like it, but then they admited its because they don't understand it.. and they didn't feel in control of their surroundings..
so i'd like to see it in our line up once murdy releases it
we need a DM Or CTF map based on an island, or somethign you have to run through water to get to, that would be cool.. Kinda like rock2 but brighter and more things to explore / castle like

I agree, I'll powwow with some of the mappers we've got here and see if any of them bite.

Have you ever seen the map dm_island17?
Its a small map, but its very nice, bright and good for up to about 16 players. Mabey not on the main server, but on one of your smaller feeder/overflow servers. Its hard to find this map on servers that arent fked up with everyone running around in god mode or noclip or whatever.

I was the one doing all the map testing on the HAX server last night when you were on. Someone had finally sent me a list of everything we have, and there were a bunch of things I had never seen and so wanted to check out.
There are several mysteriously capitalized maps on there, not just jumbojet, and the fact that someone at some time in the past did this is actually a royal pain as the server is case sensititive. And I can't do anything about it as I have no access to uploads.
Peace...

LOL! That's too bad. I don't recall being on the Hax server last night... but I'm sorry about the case issue. I can see that as being an atomic pain in the ass.
