I don't think another version is needed, but well it's up to you. What about MH-TheLanding1 instead? Is that fine as is?

Never mind, got your PMs.

OK BIG thanks to gopo for giving me a fast and direct link to HellFire's missing maps:

http://www.utsurvival.com/pots/MH-MayhemCastlev2.zip
http://www.utsurvival.com/pots/MH-TheLanding1_fix.zip

Thanks also to HellFire for fixing the maps.

[Update]
Herm I noticed the following maps crash the server:

MH-NaliC
MH-Sky_Isles

The first requires the following packages:
MHCoopMonsters.u
UTMHpack.u
WarLord.umx

while the second requires these packages:
DawnT.utx
Deadsounds.uax
HauntedCreatures.u
QJet.u
Surface.umx
UTMHpack.u

I also noticed Andromeda_Ancient has been removed, may I ask why? :?

P.S. There's one more missing map left: MH-Skyjump, do you want me to post a download link for that one as well?

I assume by "hellfy's maps" you mean "maps hellfy recommended", because I think TheLanding1 is a converted co-op map.

PS: Skyjump is what I like to call a noob trap :wink:

Yes, I'm just too lazy and I don't like long messages. :P

BTW that guy named 3 (the admin of 3's co-op server) asked for MH-Demons][
He said also that map is awesome and we cannot NOT have it on the server.

Exactly the one I expected and I can't see the goodness in it.
It's just a big map with lots of plain rooms.
The gameplay of the map is nice though, it's long and doesn't look to bad.
Here it is anyways:

I believe not having the map is perfectly understandable, it's not exactly an Andromeda. To put it mildly.

I mean, hey look a bunch of elite mercs in a one textured room. Wow.

I think it's a sort of improved TGES-like map. Neither ugly nor excellent.

OK folks (POTS), I know several of them crash the server. The problem is that I got tired and went to bed knowing if they weren't complete it would just start another map or the same one over again. Then I went out of town and this is my first moment back. It is now also 10:20 PM here and I'm still tired from being out of town. I'll get all of the se maps fixed and working and will add the lost ones to. I certainly did not remove Andromeda so something must have crashed it and map vote removed it or something. I'll get it back in working order again.

To all of you young grasshoppers a note from me: The best way to mess up a well running server is to make changes to it like adding maps. To resolve this issue just don't ever make changes.
~Peace~

Nice try Herm, I wonder why Hook, MEAT and the others keep on adding maps to their servers. :P

I also have a Plan-B:

1 - You can start a Co-op server, since that's the only kind of server that doesn't require any map updates, you just put one or more Unreal series on both the server and the redirect and you're golden. You don't even need to use the MapVote at all, just add a Portal Map which links the players to the different series;

2 - I may find a way to put 20 maps and all their required packages all together into a self installing UMOD;

3 - I'm pretty sure there's a deal hidden somewhere where you have to put at least one new map on the server per month, or 12 all together the last day of the year;

4 - You can always give me full FTP access to your server and rename the server as {MHP} Monster Hunt POTS :twisted:

I'm not saying it is hard or anything. I'm just saying that when it is running perfectly, the best way to get it to break or mess up in any way is to make changes to it. I taught MEAT very carefully about how to add maps and stuff to avoid issues. Hook just already knew how to do it right without causing issues.

Maps and skins and anything that uses lots of files if installed and unchecked can wreck a server in the fast lane. I think I may take more care than any Admin to make sure I don't make those mistakes. It feeds my OCD well too!

OK, Tonight I stayed up and finished adding and testing all of these maps you wanted. They are installed and working. I also found a nice list of maps taken out of the cycle for various reasons. MH-Andromeda being on of them and it was removed for no reason at all that Ican see but it is back in the list again now along with MH-HellFireV3. I'm still fixing MH-Hebreke_Kai and something called MH-MonsterPlanet and MH-Dark_Laws.

I'm very upset to see that people still don't know how to use proper naming conventions in MH. Example: mh-bigmonstersmapv2 should be MH-BigMonstersMapV2. It is little things like this that drive me nuts and I'm well known for adjusting map names to try to get them back into the proper UT naming convention form. It is just sad to me that peeps can do all the map work and not pay attention to the basics. It also kills me when a map has a name on it like MH-Escape but it list in MapVote as some totally different name. I don't know if MH-Escape is actually guilty of this but plenty of them are gulity!

So now what do you want folks? I'm all caught up again and POTS, I'll talk about your suggestion but don't get your hopes up. Don't forget that I'm old and slow and pleasantly lazy! What was that movie where the guy kept saying "It's good to be the King"?

Gad-Zooks Hermskii - You must be my long lost twin brother or something. :shock:
I have that same pet-peeve about map names!
Drives me nuts too!
I especially hate those idiotic graphical names like...
DM-(((@@@MieClann@@@))):)_:0_Hebe-Jebes_]|[_MMIV.unr
I just don't get why they do that - sucks big time!

And I am old, slow and pleasantly lazy also! (King? I guess) :lol:
