.TuG.Beaver Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 There's a very nice new looking RvC MapPack 4 from theplatoon.com Link: http://www.theplatoon.com/ravenshield/mod.asp?file=279 Am downloading it right now (198mb) to check it out. I think this might be good to put up on the server. What say you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.TuG.Beaver Posted November 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 ** UPDATE ** I had Scott upload this pack to the server this morning - I just need to look at the configs & which map is compatible with Tango Hunt & add them to the rotation - will sort that out this evening.

.TuG.Beaver Posted November 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 ** UPDATE 2 ** Good news - I have started testing the maps to see which ones work ok with CO-OP Tango Hunt.

Underwater Habitat 7. R6 BioLab 8. R6 Congo 9. RS Ruined City 10. Ruins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.TuG.Beaver Posted November 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2004 ** UPDATE ** Have managed to test the rest of the maps out now - there's a total of 12 that seem to work ok with Tango Hunt. Newest additions are: 11. Shopping Spree 12. Stone Set Luxury I also have 2 converted maps from Ghost Recon - Embassy & Docks to test out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tantalus Posted November 13, 2004 Report Share Posted November 13, 2004 Unfortunately these maps are (individually) quite large and the speed of the 'in-game' download process will probably stop people from joining. I attempted to join our server when it was running 'Asia', the download process stated a 9MB+ download, which crawled like a dog even though I have a decent 1MB ADSL connection - thus I just abandoned the process.. I feel a great many others will too. Perhaps we should add the map-pack as a download file on our TUG Website and advertise the fact that the server is running it (the pack) via the news-feed ? As it stands I think it is likely to remain empty due to the massive overhead - people just won't wait around for new maps... and I certainly think we need the 'old' ones to encourage them to stick around..

.TuG.Beaver Posted November 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2004 mmm. I though I disabled the auto download function. oh well. The map pack is already available for download from the platoon for sometime now & a ton of people have it installed already. I would put it up for download on the TUG website, but it's 198 megs. And would hammer our bandwidth. I had some guys on today playing with me while I was testing which was nice and I think there are a few other servers out there running too. You can change the server from the webadmin page - load the 'ServerAthenaSword' ini file to reset it back to normal. Yes I'll add the details that the server is running it too.
