Subject: ModFest Jan-22 and SW Battlefront Map Pack 1.0

 

We would like to invite everyone to participate in ModFest.

The custom map makers have made many good custom maps, but currently they aren't being played on servers. To help get more play on custom maps, we are having ModFest. To

 

make it easy for players to have the required maps, we have assembled a package of maps that we think will be fun to play. If you install MapPack1 you will be good to go on

 

TAW servers and hopefully others as well. TAW will be running at least 2 servers with the custom maps in the "SW Battlefront Map Pack 1.0". We are hoping to have 3 or 4

 

dedicated machines. We will have servers running 1.11 and 1.2.

 

ModFest:

When: Saturday Jan 22, Noon-3pm Pacific time (we will likey run servers all day)

Where: Star Wars Battlefront Internet Servers, Game servers beginning with the "#" character like:

#1_TAWSITE.COM

Public Teamspeak Server modfest.hopto.org

 

What: The SWBF community is encouraged to serve and play custom maps.

 

 

"SW Battlefront Map Pack 1.0"

This map pack is available at:

ftp://modfest.hopto.org/pub/SWBattlefrontMapPack1.zip

It was fun...now we need to get every server to add the custom maps and mix them in with the originals.

 

Can't wait for Rends next release of Hoth Escape...this is the kind of stuff that keeps a game from dieing out.

 

Keep up the good work and look forward to many more servers getting with the program...:)

I don't know...I haven't played since the 22nd because everytime I check no one is really in servers using custom maps...what is the name of your server?

 

I think the problem is it needs to be a mixture of the Custom maps and the originals to get everyone to jump on those servers.

 

If it runs just the original maps and none of the custom maps it sucks.

 

If it runs just the custom maps and none of the original it is basically the same.

 

I like the idea of both cause it will give you a 20 map rotation and takes the bordem of the same old map away.

 

Also I still think a lot of people are still behind the curve and haven't updated to 1.2 which would be nice if they would get with it....lol.

 

Any other thoughts???

Well yesterday we were 13 playing on TAw#2 mappack server.

So there are people out there playing custommaps. Dunno why yours is/was empty.

 

But keep in mind that we have patch1.2 out since a week or so and half of the online crowd (servers too) havn´t updated yet.

Same situation as we have from Version 1 to 1.1.

this will take 2-3 weeks before most people play latest Version 1.2

Well I will be on that server from here on out if it is running both the original and custom maps.

 

That is what I am looking for and sure hope that we can get about 40 others to join us so we can have 50 people running about.
