The Massive Map Pack project Options

[Team Black]

Well I'm sure everyone's thought of this at one time or another, but I decided to take the step to put it into action..

To make a HUGE map pack of tibweb/ppm's best TS maps.

I scoured both forums and came up with a list of about eighty maps for this pack.
These maps are all set and ready to go, but I want to get feedback before I get the actual pack together.
>I need recommendations on what maps I should ADD to the list
>which maps should be REMOVED from the list (if any)
> any changes that should be made to any maps on the list (like, if there's an IE problem on one of the maps)
> If any the authors want to update/revamp their maps for this pack, please do

To give proper credit, the author will be added into each map's title like this:


I'm also planning to make a MS Word doc file will be made with the map name, author, a link to the topic where it was originally posted, and maybe a minimap.
When new maps are added to the list, this pack will be updated, using a version number. I'll release the alpha here on tiberiumweb for testing, then after any bugs are worked out, I'll post it up all over CNC forums, so everyone else can play, quite honestly, the best TS maps ever made.
A goal on this is to get these maps available to most TS players, so that not everyone will have to be stuck playing nooby flat maps like the one you saw in my youtube vid..
Another goal is that these maps find their way into EA's new CNC saga pack somehow..
I expect neither goal to happen, but it's worth hoping for

Here's the map list, sorted by author:

..Well this will be one BIG map pack.

[Aurora196]

Well, if making this pack, please remove my following maps: 'A Rivers' Journey', 'Frozen Hell', 'In The Line of Fire', 'Tiberium Lake', 'Tiberium Night' and 'Tiberium Atmosphere' (and maybe 'Seclusion' too). It may seem like a lot, but I really think those maps do not represent my best work (in other words, they're crap). But, I was thinking of redoing some of my old maps, at least 'In the Line of Fire', and also 'updating' others, like 'Tiberium Night' and 'Tiberium Atmosphere'.

[Team Black]

Maps removed. I'm hoping you'll revamp as many of those as you can-
Those are nice maps, even if they're not your best. I think it would be a shame to drop them completely.

I might also put a campaign together of our good SP maps, maybe 'Trojan Horse', and some others like ARO's and Crashking's.

[ORCACommander]

you can add in polaris when I release it. Also when you got all the maps that will be included put them into .map and inside and expandXX.mix and make an MultiXX.pkt where the XX matches the mix file number and it won't cause any lag on loading.

[Crash]

Please remove:

Shiny Mountain 2.0 - Crashking
Shiny mountain - CrashKing

Reason: I never liked it, and I'm pretty sure the other two are better

BTW: I believe GLOMMA should be renamed in small letters, lol. I'll rename the topic too.

[Ixith]

hmm last night it sounded like it was only going to be all the spotlighted maps. Meh a nice big map pack is perfectly fine with me.

oh but could you remove Desolated River since it is simply just Holixe River converted into a mutated theme. (Unless of course people want Desolated River in the map pack still.)

[Team Black]

Removed. I don't know why anyone would really want their maps removed, after putting a lot of time and effort into them
(well everyone except Ixith - that guy makes maps in his sleep )

@Bloodreign - yeah, I came across a prog called 'mscg' that does that automatically. Quite a useful tool, that

[Aurora196]

Removed. I don't know why anyone would really want their maps removed, after putting a lot of time and effort into them

Well, yeah, I just think it's better to show your best work, than to show all your work. I just don't like my old maps anymore. But you can be happy, I've started remaking my first map, with others to follow. It was something I've wanted to do for a long time, but thanks to this topic, I finally started it .

BTW, you can keep Seclusion (for now at least), it's sufficient enough, and I did spend a lot of time on it...

[daTSchikinhed]

lol, I'm flattered that mine were included. I will, however, be reworking my Island Warfare map if you wish to include it as well.


by the way, be sure that it's the latest versions of the maps...

...oh but could you remove Desolated River...

NOOOOO!!!111!!!one! Keep Desolated River because it's better than the unmutated Holixe River version, simply because it's mutated, it looks cooler and I just like playing it because it's mutated. It's waaaaaaay better than Holixe River (Holixe River is kinda boring without the mutated feeling thats in the Desolated River, in my opinion at least ).

[Wess]

plz remove:
-Neutral Territory - Wess aka Wes.com
-The Long Run - Wess aka Wes.com
-Waterfalls - Wess aka Wes.com

option to remove (i leave it up to u)
-Grazzy Knoll Redux [2-4] - Wess aka Wes.com

be sure to credit me under my current and older name plz (Wess aka Wes.com), some people are confused as it is lol.

[Team Black]

remove "The Long run?" that map's a classic..

anyways, all requested maps have been removed. ( ) and the credit will go to "Wess aka Wes.com"

I did my best to make sure these maps were the most updated versions, and they were all downloaded within the past 3 days.. though it's not impossible that some may have slipped below the radar..

Any new/updated maps after the actual release, we can add to the pack and use a 'version number' to tell the most recent one.
I'll do the best I can to keep with updates & new spotlighted maps, but a post in this topic would help (I won't mind a bump)

is there anyone that wants me to ADD maps to the list???

[The Raven]

I'm good with all my maps, as long as I'm credited.
What about adding in the DvD's Cracks in the Sand?

[j4m3sb0nd]

Sure looks fine, but my map is called Treacherous Lands, not Teacherous. Also, it is 2-6 players.

I am working on a new map which I hope to release soon, so you can include that in the pack when it's done.

One more thing is that you should include all the readme's, I don't know if many of the other maps have them (mine do), but you could make an appropriate folder (simply called Readme Files or something) for them which is included in the pack.

[vOi!king ship]

Great idea. But without TS's function to have gamemodes, this is going to be one huges list.

Still, I'll definetly download.

[Crimsonum]

I might start a few maps, just for this project. I really hope I have the time/patience to finish them, I'd really want to

[ORCACommander]

Removed. I don't know why anyone would really want their maps removed, after putting a lot of time and effort into them
(well everyone except Ixith - that guy makes maps in his sleep )

@Bloodreign - yeah, I came across a prog called 'mscg' that does that automatically. Quite a useful tool, that

Don't use it. Its buggy as hell when it comes to creating the pkt file. Do it all by hand my friend

[Ixith]

NOOOOO!!!111!!!one! Keep Desolated River because it's better than the unmutated Holixe River version, simply because it's mutated, it looks cooler and I just like playing it because it's mutated.

lol apparently someone really liked Desolated River....hmmm I'm not sure what to say about keeping it in there or removing it or not.... I think I shall leave that up to everyone else. If you guys think it should stay in the map pack then make the decision.

lol BTW newer versions of old maps may make their way up after some of my WIPs of right now finish up.

[Team Black]

Added J4m3's new map. With that added, and Siege City, there's really no more maps that I know of to add to this pack (at the time of this post)
I think I'll release the first version in 1 week.
If anyone wants to get any more updates and into the first release, please get it uploaded by SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 10th.

[Clazzy]

Could you remove Primeval? I know it got second place in OMC2 but I don't particularly think it's very good, I think it just got marks for playing well instead of actual goodness. If you want a map that I would consider really good, try FS Dammed instead.

[Bittah Commander]

I wonder wat my RETRO map is doing in that list tbh It was intentionally one of those flat maps you usually catch online (so it could be transferred to other players easily); most actual work on that map really went in the mod I coded into the map...

[Team Black]

oh yeah
That was purely just for fun. I figure it wouldn't hurt to throw that one in

[Team Black]

Anyways, the map pack is now posted! be sure to download it!

And with that, I will loxor the topixor
