I'll be running different rotations on DM1 soon for testing and identification. I'll probably figure it out then, unless someone pulls the name out of their ass sooner. I think that's the problem @@2_MANY_BEERS - you're expecting something to come out of our heads. That's rarely where I pull things from. I think it might hurt less if I did it your way, but I digress...

That's what you get for bringing a spork to a knife fight!

Me too. It's a tropical map with quite dense foliage in the back area which also has a small cabin village. The tunnel exits are by the dock, and the dock compound is surrounded by a fence and there's a couple of guard towers, one of which is at the 180º bend in the road as it winds back toward the compound. The tunnels have wet floors, and there are sub-chambers off the main tunnels with large tanks and stairs/ramps leading in and out of them.

It appears to be true that the Breakfast Club has migrated over to DM2. Opinions vary as to why - some say it's because it works better, others say it's where the people are in the morning by the time they arrive. Chicken, or the egg. An afternoon (US time) crowd is still quite strong on DM1, so it comes down to a matter of time of day. I have some grand plans for DM1 moving forward, so stay tuned on that. I have some other stuff I need to work through, and the Knife Tourney is this weekend, so it won't be till next week before I begin work, but I hope it will be a fun rejuvenation for the original DM workhorse. Beers is running point on DM2, but I can tell you there is an issue with maximum number of maps in a rotation on that server, and to some degree even the size of the map (in total MB) plays into the equation. It's generated a lot of work ensuring a set of maps rotates all the way through without crashing the server. Beers deserves a big round of applause for putting in long hours fine tuning DM2! I'm sure even he would tell you it's a work in progress, though.

I shouldn't have said "kill-house" - I meant that in a generic sense, not the actual name of a map. The "kill-house" I was referring to is the one with the large rectangular pool in the back where you spawn, go charging forward, and end up taking a swim, lol. I called it a "kill-house" because it's a small map with a house as the main feature, and everyone is spawning and killing like madmen in that house. Anyway, I know I played stream2, something else, then that "kill-house" which is apparently called "villa" - so yes, we're talking about the same map. The one that used to be right after villa.

That's the exact map that caused an unhandled exception on my computer this morning right after that kill-house map with the pool in the back. I believe it was a variant of that map that used to always bork out my graphics driver. Could be more than just the linux thing.

Are you fucking kidding me? That's downright AWESOME looking!

Welcome to all 5 new COD5 Admins. Hmm... five for COD5. Has a nice ring to it.

Um... no. lol. All I can say in French is "cheese omlet." Even TIT-HEAD never orders one of those, so the extent of my French skills is virtually useless on the server side or on any side.

Welcome to the newest Idiot

Congrats QBall. You've come a long way from a COD5 Knifer.

Erwin Schrödinger, having discovered the festive property of cones, invented the party hat on New Year's Eve in 1926. Hence their nick name, "Schrödinger's Hats." (or something like that..)

Cool.

Better the latter.

LMAO

Welcome to the forums BigDog.

There has been issues with the redirect server guys. This would cause slow downloads of maps the players don't have, and especially since a couple are brand new. Those new ones force everyone (whose not already played it) to hit the redirect for a download. But since the redirect server has had issues, the game server has to step up to serve up the map. But the game servers aren't optimized to deliver entire maps like the redirect. Not sure what the status is on the redirect as on this writing, but I'm sure it will or has already been resolved. But at least now you have an explanation.

So long Joe. And thank you. And who could forget...

That's too funny @@daniel

That's interesting. Seems like a real opportunity for a community developer.

Yeah, I knew that had to be your hand ediolon.

Intel i7 Haswell chips run markedly cooler for the same benchmark score. Just sayin'.

Looks great, but I think it would look even cooler if you outlined the nuclear reactor's cooling tower that powers all that in lights, too.
