Posting map threads will be changing a little bit

[GrimGriz]

Is it a bad thing that I used the DL link:
http://forums.tf2maps.net/downloads.php?do=file&id=996&act=down

instead of:
http://forums.tf2maps.net/downloads.php?do=file&id=996

It's a bit weird that I'd have to go into a "submissions" section to post a WiP thread when I could actullay not be submitting anything for some time...

Yay this also fix the moving screen when loading big images. However, is it possible to get back your old comments? That would be sweet.

Youmes suggestions sounds good. The url would change depending on the thread name. That way we would only get real names. Not like my pl map or something.

I think you should bring the WIP forum back, and have map submissions for finished maps.
I liked WIP because you could get feedback from just a picture of the map layout and some screenshots without uploading the actual map.

well...unless it errors out if you don't have a DL link...this is far superior. Why not have a separate one for for final versions?

I think this will ultimately be the case. One for final map submissions, and one for work in progress maps.

Almost all of the maps posted in that section already and work in progress maps, ill probably just rename the forum, and create another for completed maps.

Ohhh ooooh oooh problem!!!

We can't thank replies made in the map threads!!!

The modelers don't seem to have a place to post their WIPs

Update:

Created another forum for COMPLETED works only. This includes maps/models/textures/etc.

The other is a WIP forum to post works in progress.

I've edited a few map submissions to reflect map name, and not file name (no cp_, pl_, etc).

In that case is it possible to add a collumn in the forum view for the gamemode?

I think the only problem I have with the new system is people dont know what kind of map it is if they click on the link. I personally like to avoid arena maps because I dont care to play them, but I dont want to have to click all the new WIP map submissions and find out half of them are arena.

The new column is good, but you missed payload

I always consider my works to be a work in progress.. it's not really 'final' until valve takes it in, but even then we can still make updates.

I don't think I'll ever be posting in Completed Works.

This is my dilemma currently. Im having trouble 'categorizing' sections. To have many of the features i want to ad, the forum needs to be specific. obviously we arent goind to need to see what servers are playing 'Youme's amazing snow textures'.

One of the modes is called Control Points, not Capture Point.

 

[Icarus]

any chance of getting Avatars and Steam Profiles displayed in our comments?

Everyone just seems so faceless

 

[A Boojum Snark]

Still need a Territorial Control checkbox.

 

[GrimGriz]

Speaking of checkboxes...what's attack and defend? Multistage CP? Gravelpit CP? 5-point CP? something else?

 

[Icarus]

I think what we have is sufficient. Don't need to be too specific
