zOMG i forgot to introduce myself. Ahem. Hi.

[ColdFire]

Well hum hi

I'm ColdFire (u're kidding?!), also known as Coldorak (yeah, a crappy mix with "Goldorak" some of you may have known if you're not too young).

I'm french, global moderator of the big french forum geekzone.fr, and I run their TF2 servers.

I love custom maps, playing with my servers confs and plugins, coding some stupid and useless things (like a php-ized motd, a random daily-generated mapcycle), I'm a beta tester for Psychostats, that's why I take the time to do deathmaps for about every map, custom or official, running on my servers.

Even heroes like Youme found them usefull. And I try to make usefull comments on them, but sometime expect some "zOMG it rocks!" comments, sorry.

Hmm. Nice to meet you guys. Oh and I don't map at all, the only thing I know about hammer is decompiling your maps first, to get the coordinates I want in hammer to make the deathmaps. Don't worry, I don't sell or recompile your maps to make crappy arena versions.

That's all folks. Hi again.

Cold'

PS: you can read about my TF2 servers (in french) here: http://www.coldfire.info
There are automatic sourcetv replays here: http://www.coldfire.info/sourcetv/ so if I put your wip map on my server, the day after you can grab the replay
Stats and deathmaps are here: http://www.coldfire.info/psycho/

Yeah, your psychostats are an enormous help to mappers with enough data on 'em. Thanks for any and all help.

wow those heatmaps are amazing. thank you.

 

[ColdFire]

If any of you heroes mappers have a playable map and want a heatmap, feel free to contact me! If I think your map is playable enough to set a playtest on it, it'll be a pleasure to help and provide you sourcetv replays and heatmaps.

It's people like you doing great maps who help me to manage a great server (and the players too!), so it's my way to thank you for the great job you do. (ok, not every mapper does a great job, but most of you do )
