Map Vote on Ville4

Mr.Vomish · Posted: Fri Feb 27, 2004 12:47 am Post subject: Map Vote on Ville4

Hi its Mr. Vomish here with a Q. Ever since the ville4 implemented its new map vote, I have never found Charlie as one of the map options. So my question is, are the 3 maps that are up for vote completely random or are they set up that way in advance?

Sometimes I only see three maps and sometimes there's five. I wonder how it's rotated.

But yeah, I don't think I've ever seen charlie on there. But I've also never seen a mapvote that includes Charlie which doesn't win.

Hey guys, Silverone removed Charlie, Forest and Vicenza from TV4. I think they were causing some issues with the server crashing and it was narrowed down to these maps being the cause. I'm sure Silver could explain it better but thats the jist of it. I think Vicenza will be put back on soon.

I'd be happy to not see them come back. Charlie is the only one that seems fun to me but it breeds campers more so then the other maps it seems. I have also seem multiple complaints about allies camping axis respawns on Charlie as well.

But to answer your question I do believe the maps are picked at random. I believe there is a sequence involved which takes into account when the maps were up for vote and the maps that have been played.

In amx, you put in maplists in different sets and it chooses a set at random.

Actually, what's really weird is that during the last past while on TV IV, I don't have the ability to vote for the next map. The option doesn't come up for me, and while everyone else is frantically voting I'm sitting there, feeling marginalized like a woman before the 19th Amendment. Viva la Ten Yard suffrage.. er somethin'!

Sorry I didn't respond earlier was at a bowling tournament/vacation in Reno

Charlie was taken out because it was crashing the server once in awile. Also many compaints on the respawn beach issue. So.. took it off for now.

Forest was put back in last week.

Vicenza and the blood plugin don't mix. If Vicenza is loaded it crashes the server if I have the blood on. Since the blood is well liked, I decided to keep it and remove Vicenza until there is a fix.

Usually the only way the menu doesnt appear if you died right before it pops up. But it may be a little buggy too.

Alright I have an update on this

All maps are available for now. I had to disable a couple plugins including the blood. The blood plugin is linked to a mod that may be causing the occasional crash issue. This doesnt mean it wont come back, Im just disabling one by one to make sure. I know most of us love the extra blood, but its the only way to test.

So enjoy seeing vicenza, forest, and charlie for now on TV4.

Thanks guys.
