Where did all the CTF maps go?

See topic.

If this has been posted already, I searched the forum a few times and couldn't find anything, so sorry.

Aren't they in the 70's or 80's range?

 

[zhinchliffe]

erm.... eh? I'm not sure what you mean by in the 70s or 80s range. =/

Also, I noticed that there are only 6 match maps up there. There's gotta be more than that.

Are you talking about downloadable CTF maps or the ones that come with SRB2?

 

[The Yellow Blue Dude]

CTF maps are not in the 70's they are the race maps (my favorites)

OH. Sorry. My bad. I'm talking about the wads from the addons section of the site.

Check out the contest wads, they have some CTF maps thrown in there.

I was actually more looking for a SPECIFIC wad that seems to have vanished. It is not in the Level Packs section, either.

Any Idea what zone it was? For example Zero Ring CTF?

 

[zhinchliffe]

I doubt any of you have it, it was made in 2003 or 2004. =|

It was called Green Hill Arena, if anyone DOES somehow have it.

it was very mediocre, only reason I still want it is because I made it

 

[glaber]

03 or 04? That would explane why it's gone. It's proably in the old wad zip.

If it's from that period, it might be in the archive of 1.08 wads: http://mystic.sepwich.com/srb2wad/files/108addons.zip.

 

[zhinchliffe]

A ha! That's why everything's missing - all the 1.08 wads are gone. It completely slipped my mind that we updated from 1.08 to 1.09. Okay, that helped a lot! Thanks!

EDIT: Unzipped, and sure enough, I found it. (mtfa_greenhillarena) Now, how am I to go about updating this WAD for 1.09?

 

[glaber]

Load it up in doom builder (SRB2 specific or original) and copy the sectors and things to a new file. (Open doom Builder twice for two windows of the program.)

The main change between 1.08 and 1.09 that breaks compatibility with old WADs is that the old level headers (MAPXXN) no longer work. You need to update it to a new header (MAPXXD) or a MAINCFG.

That and possibly a rearrangement of the executors as I've seen with Zero Ring.
