Why
I have a dedicated tf2 server that I have been using for my map. I am stopping working on my map so I want to share with the community.

How it will work
I am willing to have 1 map run 24/7 for up to 14 days at a time (depending on demand) so that people can try out your map without having to download it. For example, if 4 people want their map hosted, I will try to rotate every ~3 days.

This will be a first come, first serve basis. I will host any version of map.

Bonus
As an added bonus, I will be providing HLSTATSX ( http://tf2.resolveme.com ). If I personally like your map, I will generate heatmaps for your map.

Also, ingame commands like hlx and rank will work.

Also, their is Roll the Dice on the server, for fun. I can disable upon request...(i guess :( )

Server Info:




What I Want
A link to the map. Recognition.


Good luck everyone!

Yeah. Why not have a week or two of havign that server just be contest maps? Haarp, Vector, Panamint, Bayou, Snowdrift, Premuda for a week (30 or so minutes a map?) and then the following week, have the plr contest entries: Scoville, Nightfall, and...the others (I forget >.>)

I was thinking of hosting a specific night of just the contest maps for each gamemode on my UK based server sometime in October, probably on a Thursday night, UK time from 8pm, with a follow up event the next week.

Arctic and Panic are the two other main entries though I know there are a few lower-profile ones.

Ok guys. I setup a 30 minute per map rotation of:
  • koth_photofinish_b5
  • arena_blackwood_rc2
  • koth_courtyard_b4

I plan on doing the contest maps for all of next week.

Also the DL's for the map are crazy fast. I downloaded Blackwood in less than 30 seconds in game :), Photofinish was even faster!

Stats will only work with 4+ players, and I can't figure out how to change that.

thanks for hosting my map. It's only a bit of a shame the server isnt populated. I am the only one on the server right now, so I idling right now.

I will join the server when there are some people on, but it's not worth joining to have a 1v1 or 2v2 when I get 200 ping.

@zpqrei
:facepalm: sorry. I fixed that

@martijntje
Yeah, my friends and I don't really play during the week. We might play some this weekend on each map and I will get some feedback from them.

@J4CK8
Yeah, this server is in Los Angeles, which is pretty far away from you :D

This makes me want to make a map and get everyone to like it, then put it on your server.

There are also Nightfall, Cornfield, Scoville, Eureka Dunes, Animus, .. and these aren't lower profile maps..
