Looking at the maps installed on e.g. MeatHook and Boomer there are more maps on MH. Is it possible to have the same maps on both servers? What I mean is to have MH maps on Boomer as well.

We can but what we have found in the past is that it is even harder to ensure that everyone has the maps plus the bandwidth from your site where the mappacks are hosted will get absolutely raped by hundreds of slavering undead downloading them (oops got carried away there I meant to put "visitors")

Well, the idea I had was to stick pack 3 on there. Then we could throw in a map from time to time to promote the greener pasture.
We can always link the separate maps from the original host where I got them.

I think we should keep the standard maps on Boomer. However it would be good to get all of the maps on Baldric so that we can use it if/when Meathook fills up.

I can easily copy the maps between the folders and will do if so needed - I just wanted to make sure everyone is aware of implications.

Cheers BB. Please do. I had no intention of brining them into the rotation, but rather have the option to use them.

I've copied the maps, materials, models, resources and sounds folders from MH to Baldric and Boomer. I'll work on the maplist files now.

Please don't update the maplist file on Boomer. I only want the maps changed to custom maps on Boomer using RCON.

In that case I'll leave well alone :)
