I've been wanting to fire up a CS server running oldschool/unpopular maps from the earlier versions (1.0-1.5) for ages, and I finally got 'round to doing it. It was a huge nostalgia trip going through them all.

I've also been playing a bit of CS Deathmatch lately, so I figured I'd put that on the server as well, especially since most of the maps are too imbalanced/large for normal play. Fast D/L is available, so there won't be much waiting involved either.

While the primary focus of the server is running those ancient maps, I'd still be more than happy to host your 1.6 maps, or any other cool & forgotten stuff for the game. Post any maps you want on the server here and I'll have them uploaded.

If you have any suggestions/feedback, let me know!

Other than that - join in & have a few frags! GL HF!

Stojke:
Right on!

Archie:
You can't beat the nostalgia value of 1.6.

Besides, it's still going to be a while before good custom maps for it start popping out, warranting a custom server. And there's plenty of good standard servers available for GO, which isn't the case for vanilla CSDM.

Given that the only one mentioned now is long gone, and that there are two three more not yet mentioned, I think this is in need of an update: http://twhl.info/servers.php

Yes sir, gg indeed!
Added two new maps: de_jeepathon2k and de_deep6

Deep6 is probably the most beautiful 1.6 map ever made imho. Its scale and detail are amazing.

If you like playing old maps you probably enjoy playing old cstrike versions, too.
A friend of mine has some servers running with cstike beta 5.2 and beta 6.2.
Actually we are not playing the beta-versions often, because there are not many players. Maybe some of you like to join us

You can find cs-beta at:
betastrike.net (german)

The CSDM you're referring to is called FFA (free for all), Bruce. CS is a team game inherently, so you don't have to mention that in the name. It's the opposite with HLDM.

manionsen:
Nah, I like 1.6. It's just the old maps that I miss.

As for todays play, Bruce and Rufe are pretty good, Captain T was too busy examining the map geometry and textures to shoot XD

We'll need to set up Steam events to orgnanize decent games. TWHL servers are always fantastic when they go up, but we're so small that most memebrs aren't on at the same time.

Changes/additions:

Added de_twhl2011 and cs_mansion
sv_airaccelerate is now 100
Players now spawn with an HE grenade along with their selected gear

Existing bugs:

The VIP still can't equip primary weapons in as_ maps. I've done some googling, but I couldn't find any plugins that would fix that. Does anyone know of a plugin that would enable primary weapons for the VIP in CSDM? If not, maybe someone with the appropriate knowledge could write one? (pleease?) :3

Keep those map requests coming guys.

You could eliminate the as maps from the rotation 'till it's sorted--though i would really miss oilrig--, or possbily search for existing ports to normal gameplay, i.e. cs,de, maps.

OR

Is there any way you could do some entity hacking to remove the info_vip_start from the as maps?

I could write a tiny plugin to do that actually, good point. I'll get to it.

EDIT: Couldn't fix it. I'm pretty bad at writing plugins. I'll be keeping the as_ maps regardless of the bug.

Added a bunch of maps!

mp_farm
cs_malibu
de_rats_2001
de_rats2_2002
de_rats3
nth_lets_take_mothers_tank
de_storm

Mp_farm is up, as requested by 2muchvideogames. Thanks to Elof for reminding me about the rats series - I've added the whole official trilogy. Malibu was also made by CyberRat - it's quite the nostalgic piece of work. It also reminded me of lets_take_mothers_tank, another epic random fun map. Finally, I've included de_storm in the map cycle, not sure why it ended up being overlooked.

I didn't add the knife maps, as requested by Stojke, purely because CSDM overrides all map weapon settings, meaning they would just turn into mindless killboxes. We'll have to stick to regular maps I'm afraid, sorry man.

Keep those map requests coming!

Oh and thanks to everyone who joined in tonight's game! I think we had 12 players at one point tearing it up on arabstreets. Bloody awesome!

The funnest dm server I ever played was like this. Player started with long jump. Weapons weren't selected but spread amongst the maps. You had a hook shot. It was an xxl pros server for condition zero but it eventually dissapeared

. I think it was only de_dust2 though. It would be awesome if you included this stuff, it made for such a fun server.

I'm glad to see you have surfing enabled.

zeeba-G:
I can see where you're coming from, but there's already loads of CSDM servers running extra mods like WC3, sentries, etc. I want this to stay vanilla cause there's a real shortage of pure DM servers without extra mods or restrictions, at least in my region. Not to mention the lack of variety in maps as you've mentioned. Those are the reasons why I started this in the first place.

Deathan:
Yeah, the bulk of the players join in the evening at around 22:00 GMT. That's probably the only time when the EU and US playtimes overlap, so aim for that and you're likely to find company!
That can be a bit late for Central/Eastern Europe though, so there's often smaller groups playing at ~ 20:00 GMT.

Oh, and speaking of players, if any of you are a part of a clan or any other group that plays CS, do invite them over. The more the merrier!

de_wallmart
de_vertigo

Added a couple of 3D_Mike's maps (bikini, predator) - those were always way ahead of their time. Also remembered de_wallmart, a nostalgic lulzy map by Squall. I've also added dfg_hmm_dust4, as requested by Rufee, and included vertigo in the mapcycle.
