Add the link monkey boy. I would help but have no broadband and if your planning to play before Dec 7th, still won't :(
:withstupid:

If you do I can DL then UL it to our DL section for easy access.

I have got the PM from CB.

I'll DL the fils and add them to the mapcycle this weekend. I'll post here when all is ready :)

I've got the mappack and have run a test install. You need to point it to the counterstrike folder that is below your steam username. For me that meant selecting:

C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\blueball@sutherlandweb.co.uk\counter-strike\

as the installation folder.

Hope this helps?

Sadako, can you add it to the download page of the webby internet thing?

Yes if someone is kind enough to give me a link.

I have done a full install and tested every map change (dedication thats what it is). As well as the mappack you also need two wad files that are missing. I have uploaded them too.

To recap:

Install the mappack to:
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\yourname@yourdomain\counter-strike\

Unzip the moviewads to the SAME location (the zip file has the correct folder structure to cope from there)

Sadako, I have placed both files in LEECH/games/cs/MovieNight

You will need both for a succesful install

BB is proud to announce that BBs server is now running the following mapcycle:

de_batcave
cs_boxoffice2k
cs_duke2k
de_enterprise-D
helms_deep
helms_deep_ag
cs_moria2
panic_room
cs_pelham123
de_predator
de_rock
de_simpsons
de_springfield_v2
starwars2
cs_starwars
cs_theatre
de_tombraid

You will note that 747 is not there. That's because it sucks like a sucky thing and since it is my server I am boss :)  :ph34r:  So there :narnar:

Sadako will (I'm sure) shortly have the maps avail for download from the webby thingy

Sounds like it'll be fun on BB's server.  :rolleyes:
Lots of new maps that I don't know!  <_<
Come on Sadako get the webby thing sorted!  :blink:
I do exactly what the little voices tell me to.

PC Specs:- Black box with some fans that go whirrr, a few lights, things inside that get warm, headphones, keyboard (a clicky one), mouse (with buttons and no squeak), disks (2-off SSD and HDD) and a monitor of sufficient proportions.

Zok

looking forward to some of that
nice one chaps

I will not upload the files while ppl are on our servers. It will create serious lag.

Cheers Sadako. Website updated. Files are available here

Extract zip file to same location as you install mappack (if you want to extract the wad files manually then place them in your cstrike folder)

My thoughts on the maps so far:

de_batcave <- has possibilities
cs_boxoffice2k <- Not too bad but could be a bit "linear" - cute hossies :)
cs_duke2k <- Very nice :)
de_enterprise-D  <- no use for TCS - not a good map
helms_deep <- OK poss difficult for TCS
helms_deep_ag <- OK  poss difficult for TCS
as_moria <- a bit of a race - there is another Moria map that is better REMOVED
cs_moria2 <- this replaces as_moria
panic_room   <- possibly not suited to TCS - a bit small
cs_pelham123 <- awesome map - really well done - no good with small numbers
de_predator <- we know this one :)
de_rock <- could be good
de_simpsons <- we know this one :)
de_springfield_v2 <- we know this one :)
starwars2 <- apart from the fact you can drive a tiefighter that sounds like a tractor this doesn't have much to recommend it :(
cs_starwars <- a bit too linear to be interesting
cs_theatre <- this has possibilities too
de_tombraid <- excellent map

To follow from BB I would say my faves are below.  However if we do a theme night it should NOT be TCS in style (as Sadako said before).  Therefore this alters my views somewhat from BB.

Definately:
Batcave
Duke 2k
Helms Deep
Pelham (from what film is this?)
Rock
Predator
Simpsons (1 &/or 2)
Tombraid

Possibly:
Moria (can you link to the better versio BB for me to check out?)
Panic Room (yes a bit small, but good fun for a total blast-fest)
Theatre OR Boxoffice (not both - too much the same imo)

Todays Homework Assignment -
I've been looking around for other maps based on movies and noticed a few but the links were all dead.  Could a few peeps look around in your well-known map haunts for the following (or any other movie maps) to see if they are interesting:

Resident Evil map
Die Hard map
There are also several Matrix maps flying around

Perhaps also the escape map where you have to escape from the bank vault as an ode to Heat?

In terms of skins there are very few decent film ones around so this part may well have to be binned.

Thanks for your work on this BB - Much appreciated  8)
If I wanted you to understand I would have explained it better

The taking of Pelham 123 with Walther Matthau and Robert Shaw.

Great film Shaw and Balsam were fantasic together.

Also Theme Night is for giggles and laughs, so I agree we could drop the TCS or at least use it where it works and play for fun on the maps that don't support it.
