Its amazing how easy links can make it for a server admin to add a map to the rotation. :D

:D CTF-Avaris from the Epic Bonus Pack. Sorry, I just assumed after playing this one, that much like Cher, it would need only 1 name.

And yeah, I know it is not a "perfect" map. And yeah, I've seen folks slamming it already. But that's Ok, to each his own, let them complain if they wish. Whatever makes 'em happy.

But me? Sure, I've seen both bot glitches and map glitches, and I don't care. (would be nice if they weren't there, but so what) I've played a few Chaos rounds with bots on it already (for the most part causing me to ignore rest of pack), and it's just plain fun.

Bah, maybe some doors are too small, some paths used too much..., perhaps frames run a bit low in spots, but again, I don't care. Because despite all of that, it delivers. A Carry the Flag gametype, the rest of the Chaos swag, and many more custom player models on my harddrive, is all this thing needs.

It's large and in charge. And for now anyway, I'm hooked.

I'm missing something here. What kind of links? symbolic, hyper, shortcut? I download a map, switch to linux box and copy to maps dir. Then Admin from browser to add to rotation, yadayadayada.

There's an easier method? Maybe? Share please, Furry.

As I hadn't played the BP, I didn't know it was part of the BP maps. I thought it was a map he found, but he didn't provide a link for me to download it.

Aside from making a batch file that copies the files automatically to the right folders, you've got it right. You can use the same batch file to create the compressed files if you are using a redirection setup.
