I took a couple hours today and found/setup maps for a couple completely NEW short 5-map rotations. Some of these maps are gorgeous (well, for CoD:UO they are) if you can run the eye-candy settings on maximum. So you might want to connect in early to get the downloads done, tho' the largest is only 5MB in size.
As usual, I put the smaller ones up front rotation-wise. A couple of the later ones are largish but were so good-looking I had to give them a try. I did HQ the largest one as that helps teams find each other more quickly and it has at least one working tank and an 88...didn't fully explore it.
One of the smaller maps only supports DM, which is okay on occasion especially to begin. Several of these maps have lots of "Crow roosts" and most all are fairly open so should play pretty well. I didn't test the multiplayer spawn points, guess we'll just see.
Also want to welcome Sgt. Schultz to the club; hope he can become a regular soon. And our old buddy RoadDoc might be joining us on occasion too, but he works weird hours as an EMT so who knows.
Anyway, hope you ALL had a great Xmas and have a safe and prosperous New Year!

When I was troubleshoot'n the previous post mod problem I found out from the original MW mod author (Tally) that he's get'n ready to finally release this CoD:UO mod. Looks schwweet but dunno yet if it has any more to offer besides the fancy window-dress'n of the screens, models, etc. along with the weapon mods. Obviously those are stock maps in the demo screenshots. Will keep an eye on development and see what happens. If it appears to be "worthy" then should have time to test it out over the Xmas break.

A Merry Christmas
SAAAAAAALute
to one and all!
A few members have whin....umm....voiced their opinions about the stock weapons in CoD:UO. Guess we all got spoiled somewhat by the original "Modern Weapons 2" mod that we ran for quite awhile. So I put that back in today, and it should download in the usual manner...just make sure your downloads are turned on. I'll test it out when I get home. Crikeys, I really hate to give Hock his AK47 back (that's like hand'n O.J. a Ginsu gift card) but dammit I miss my M4A1 too!
I was also think'n of scheduling another "UO Marathon" event sometime during the Xmas week as quite a few folk usually are off then....I am. Might be my last hurrah for awhile depending on what works out with the job hunt in January.
On the weird side o'things, I've written several times to Randor after he wrote me on Nov 23rd in regard to rejoining our particular brand of insanity, but not one steenkn' reply. Hope he's doing okay....I yanked his chain AGAIN today.
