Custom Map Choices

Ok, what custom map do you want to see added next. With the new url download option of hlds custom map downloads happen very fast (unless your on dialup) I've added Acropolis2 and probably in a week or two will add another one.

As much as I love Osaka, it just never really brought in the people in large numbers.

I voted Torch2.

Ya, I think staying with custom maps that are played on leagues are going to be the route I take. I already have openfire on the download so you might see it running once in a while until I decide to put it in the vote menu.

Corn is my favourite of the four. However like KRG pointed out, it might not see a lot of action. It's very much like Avanti so I'm surprised it never took.

custom maps have always been a problem cause they took forever to download at about 4-5kb/sec. But with the url download being available you should be able to download any map just like you would click in the files section. For me I'm downloading now at around 150kb/sec when I tested acropolis2.

Ill give it some time for the regular visitors to get acropolis2 downloaded before I add another map. Being in the vote menu, ppl should only vote on the map they wanna play so majority rules.

Torch2 is good for a server with a lot of slots.

Openfire is the worst map in tfc, torch gets old fast, osaka is fun and so is cornfield.

Osaka becuase of the cool sounds

Openfire has been added, so if you dont have it, no biggy. Let it download.

I took them back off. I dont know why but i think ppl just dont understand that they downloaded the map or something. Whenever one of those maps came up they all just left cept a few. I know its working correctly too cause I deleted my files and they dl'ed just fine and I got in. Oh well.

Did you have a message in the MOTD that says that they will download quickly?
