EDIT:
Just before I get asked 100 times: NO there no date for a new Soldat version yet ;)

I might be able to join :-) I might also not have enough time to make the maps. So it doesn't need bot waypoints? That owns, since I've only tried foolin' around with 'em once (and that didn't go so well) X-D

Pffff I already made 2 of the official maps :p

we actually going to have a new version of soldat? I don't believe this! I want michal to say it :P

Vehickuls!

Doggfather: really? which ones?

Equinox was one I think...ummm..can't think of the other
.

MMM interesting... I happen to have 3 maps on teh go right now ^^ I suppose I will submit them all when I'm done

this means i gotta start making some new ones :)

wootie... I wish I could use mapmaker :P

I'd give it a go... But waypointing isn't one of my greatest skills. Arrr! I'll give it a go!

The all populair ctf_Chernobyl

I really don't know why it's not being played, I think it's better than Equinox.

It is better than Equinox, but I guess the following problems keep players from playing Equi and Cherno

Equinox:
- unusually dark (minor problem)
- too much rounded -> friggin buggy (many polies are too small, you keep on bouncin very often, precise movement is almost not possible)
- lower tunnels can be controlled by a single barreter or minimier, cause the straight ground provides great ricochet conditions
- Its too open

Cherno:
- background too bright
- too much spray in the tunnels
- design of upper part is not the best

Everything is *imho* of course ;)

both arent bad maps, otherwise michal wouldnt have chosen them, equi would be even great if it wasnt that open and less bouncy.

i want 2 default maps too :P...
my map will rule all others!!!11!1 ;Q

Tha Doggfather - only as a favour xD
The only map i like from the 1.2.1 pack is Maya. :S There's plenty of time to make a normal looking ctf map.

Why would Michal do me a favour? He doesn't owe me anything.

I didn't even ask for my maps to be included, I got an email one day asking if he could use my maps in the next release.

i don't see point making new maps becouse they are not played in clanwars.. and i can say that for sure becouse i did play over 70 cws in xfect and we/others always did choose those normal maps (b2b,kampf,run,viet,laos,voland) sure we played maybe 1-3 times maya but other maps are mainly played on publics

why not remove older cutsom maps that aren't played?
I'd be fine if tropiccave was removed, it isnt played that much.
also dropdown :o

equinox should be removed and some more playable map should be added

maya is quite often played in clanwars (it's a default map for my clan for instance)

Yeah it seems all the new maps get skipped, they just play really poorly...

Still its a good idea to include community maps, so gl with the search!!!

yay im gonna make maps :D

the next version in my mind needs more INF maps. "POW Camp" should be an official inf map in my opinion...

People don't play chernobyl becuase they don't have enought RAM memory to load the huge backgrounds and then soldat crushes...

I always wana play Chernobyl Maya and Dropdown >.<

ahh :'( death match maps can't win :'(

I think chernobyl is an awesome map, but it lacks gameplay in public servers
