The Return of Fun Map Fridays

Back in the olden days of Gold, we ran Fun Map Fridays and Old School Saturdays, where certain maps would be on display to change up the normal routine of gaming.

For anyone who's interested in playing some of the lighter, less-realistic maps out there, feel free to stop by.

Also, the main point of this thread is to also request any fun maps that I might have missed in my rotation:

attaque
dod_forest-rush
dod_freedom_b3
dod_the_wall_v1
dod_bridges
dod_dust2_dgs
dod_2pillboxes_v1
dod_bunky
dod_snow_bridge_beta
dod_carentanfield_v1
dod_lerouge
dod_pillbox2
dod_speedball_[bds]_doc
dod_scoutzknives_[bds]_doc

Are there any other fun maps out there worth checking out? I know we have alot of custom map server operators around this forum, and I'm hoping I can get some info from you. Thanks in advance!

Do you know this one ? ]dod_murky_p2 (http://www.dod-spqr.com/request.php?166[/URL)

Actually, I replaced dod_speedball with dod_murky_p1 because there weren't enough spawns.

I also found dod_axis_are_badword and renamed it to a more family-friendly term. I have dod_rennes and dod_canyon on backup too, though there was this foggy bridge map in the early days of Source, and I can't find it now. Any ideas?

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. Can anyone tell me the CFG for a map that allows only 5 people on the Allied, and the rest of the server on Axis?

That axis are "bad word" map is one of mine. It was made to be run our "Defend Maps" server. Due to the nature of the map, I'm not sure how well it's going to be received on a standard server, but id be interested to find out. If you are interested, I have a couple more maps along this style that I made specifically for that server too.

As for the CFG file, the guy that runs our servers spent some time figuring out the ratios to get it right (in its stock form, you need a full server for it to work right). If your still looking for it, I will get ahold of it today for you, and can pm it to you as well.

Another map you might consider throwing up there is DOD_4_Towers. Its another one of mine, and its alot of fun. There are still some minor things that need to be fixed, but it has enough spawns for a 32 man server :-)

Speaking of that, I will fix Speedball today, so if you want that too, just let me know.

Thank you very much, Doc. I actually spent today finding quite a few of your maps, including 4towers, iceworld, and spires.

I hope you don't mind if I change the "bad word" map to something that my son can play on without me feeling guilty. I was considering dod_sitting_ducks, if that's okay with you. I played it on your Defend server, and it was a blast.

Hopefully it'll be received quite well on our funmaps Friday server, since people will have a different mindset than on a normal day, though it does completely hinge on whether or not I can make the CFG work to where there are only 4-5 Allied versus a full side of Axis. I'm still trying to figure out how to set up the CFG to make it work.

Finally, as for Speedball, I would truly appreciate a version with full spawns. It's a chaotic map and a great deal of fun.

I have no problem with you changing the name. I have kids too, so i know how that goes :-) That name really was just a joke when we put it on our defend server, but it got so popular so fast that i havent had the chance to change it.

I am touching up the 4 towers map today, and should have the final version for release tonight. After almost 1.2 million kills on our servers alone, I figured now was the time to fix the minor issues with it.

I will also rework the spawns on Speedball for you as well, and I will try to have it done tonight... If not it will prob be monday, due to tomorrow being my wifes day :-)

As well as a map, I got a plugin that you might find handy for fun nights

It allows players to vote for a single weapon, say all pistols or c96 etc

...and here's a couple of fun maps we use on our servers that go well with it.

dod_[SAS]_SewerFightclub

Great when used with OneWeaponMod to have all carbine fights

dod_freedom_b3

I replaced dod_speedball with dod_murky_p1 because there weren't enough spawns.

Freedom is running 12 spawns on both sides. Let me know if that is not enough. I've still got a lot of things to work on with the b3, and one of those things will be the addition of more spawn points.

BTW... its nice to see freedom getting some playtime. I'm looking to fully release B4 as a WIP sometime before the summer.... then wrap it up with a final B5 following feedback.

Thx Bocasean!

I've only got 22 slots on my server, so it's never been an issue with Freedom.

And thank you all again for the feedback and suggestions!!!!

Hey Bocasean,

The new 4 Towers & the new Speedball have been released. Check out the release section here to grab them.

Enjoy!

Sweet! Thanks, bro. I will have them running tomorrow.

Leader, I assume these are on the UPA server?
