This channel works like #mpuktf2.pickup however its just for playtesting maps that have a thread in this board for the mapping contest. Remember the purpose of this is to leave feedback for the authors to improve on, so ALWAYS leave feedback on the thread associated to the map if theres something to note.
Note:
no voting, the map chosen is at random
type !maplist for a list of maps currently on rotation
type !mapinfo to be shown information on the current map or !mapinfo for another map
type !lastmap to be shown the map information for the last map played, so you can find the thread link to post feedback in.
no you cannot ask an admin for a particular map to be put on, this channel is for testing purposes.

TESTERS
—————————
Download the mappack before !add ing. Unzip the mappack and place it in your map directory for tf2. This mappack is updated every monday with latest releases for all maps that have a thread on this board. If there is no new mappack version dont bother to download the old one :) links to the mappack versions will be listed at the top of this thread with their release date

MAPPERS
—————————
make sure you have your thread up on this board, authors without a thread will not have their map entered in the pickup channel.

Provide a link on the first post of your map thread to the latest map version. Your latest map version will then be included in every weekly update

STV demo’s are recorded constantly, if you want to request downloading of these stv demo’s contact me on either irc (im idle in #etf2l) or add me to steamfriends: akill_

Great idea. Will be very useful for us mappers to get feedback. Please please please if you play one of our maps, post some feedback in our threads. We need the feedback a lot and I can assure you each one of us will appreciate it.

Great!

seemed to be working out great yesterday..

Would be awesome if some other clan / group loans us another server because running a maptest pickup on 1 tf2 server isn’t gonna cut it i’m afraid..
show the love!

GoT is doing this as well (right, from what I saw on the GoT forums?). But they don’t use a IRC channel or anything, contact Neusbeer or Brainstorm. I think they well be interested ;)

sorry, its difficult to keep track of everyones latest releases when they arent in the first post in the topic. id like mappers to make a list of all their releases in the first post from now on please.

mappack v2 has been added, all new maps are added to the rotation:

cp_hillside_beta3
cp_worselands_b2
cp_drylands_a3
cp_erosion_b4c
cp_trainstation_a4
cp_compound_a3
cp_mapnel_a4
cp_greenvalley_a3

Akill, just get them to post in here whenever they make a big update :s Would that not be easier?
