During past few years I've been reviewing lots of maps and models, for personal collection mostly. But after number of reviewed maps went over 2000 I decided to organize everything into a single project, which could benefit other people. I plan to put everything together in a single out-of-the-box-ready package (most likely, a torrent) for anyone to just download, copy and play. Suggestions regarding media, packaging, distribution, name, are welcome!
Right now there are about 750 maps sorted out of 4000 and about 320 models out of 1500. All "readme-s" and other stuff was carefully kept under map file names, most of resources were found and recovered (sometimes people seemed to upload their maps without skyboxes, models, sprites or sounds). The criteria are strict regarding both the aestethic and technical sides (for example, no skyboxing). Only HLDM maps were allowed.
The project will be finished very soon, but! Because there's a HLDM mapping competition ongoing here on TWHL, I'll be more than happy to delay release a little bit so these maps may enter the list!
IMPORTANT: if you did not find your map in the list and want it to be added, you are welcome to post a download link here!
Reviewing won't be very fast, because map will have to be re-checked against several lists and archive, but no entry will be left without attention, I promise!
But please check this list first:Current list of approved maps: http://pastebin.com/5qWpc5yj
Get well xawari!
