Barrysworld TFC Server 4 - Map Rotation - A COMPLAINT

[old.[FMD]Stu_Granger]

Umm, just to make it clear that I and a few others are slightly pissed that a public BW TFC server has new map rotation without any warning nor communication from Dr Chris or Mr Bee in any news release or TFC forum message.

It would be considerate of BW to advise us (on this board) of said changes and instruct us of what maps are in the rotation as well as where to download them. Instead, it seems that the map names and download locations are only privvy to Mr Bee's [A&I] clan members.

Additionally, there seems to be a "block" on downloading from TFC server 4 (everytime I log into the server with a "new" map it kicks me out - stating clearly that the map is not available to download), which is a change of direction from BW, before when we asked for this action BW stated it was not in its philosophy to stop people downloading maps from BW servers.

This situation is of course unacceptable and suggest that a listing of new maps as well as locations for download be relayed to us on this forum as soon as possible.

I look forward to improved communication from BW on this matter.

With thanks

sorry about this but I came home from work today to find them up and running. I didnt know "benny" would be that quick to get them up...which i thank him for.

There is a bug in one of the maps and I will be updating the map in question for tomorrow.

but for now here is the map rotation excluding the bugged map

openfire comes from the opposing forces CD but with permission from gearbox can be made available to download

I hope these maps will become available on barrysworld ftp soon.

I'll try not to be so prompt in future

Anyhow, current map rotation on BWTFC4 is:

2fort
openfire ftp://ftp.barrysworld.com/halflife/mods/tfc/maps/openfire.zip
rock2
*bugged map*
well
double pen ftp://ftp.barrysworld.com/halflife/mods/tfc/maps/dp.zip

badlands
nuclear ftp://ftp.barrysworld.com/halflife/mods/tfc/maps/nuclear.zip
crossover2

Other points to note...

The per map class limits that were on BWTFC4 are now on BWTFC1, 2 & 3. Also, the order that the maps cycle on those servers has been 'randomised' to try to combat all the servers being on the same map at the same time.

BWTFC4's name has been change to reflect the fact it is running custom maps.

This lot should be appearing on the 'Barrysworld' news section soon.

Regards,

Benny

Re: classlimit for hunted.

I put this past MrBee, and he's cool with it, so at some point later today you should notice this being enforced on BWTFC1,2 & 3.
