2 New KZ Maps, 3 New Custom Maps

By Juhmp·
Hello everyone! The map checking team has had a lot of work cut out for them these past few weeks. We present to you 5 new maps for your recording enjoyment!

cg_lighthops by Mentalo:

This is a cool bhop map with a lot of combos on the climbing part. All the speed freaks will definitely like this map. Another "goldbhop" map, for sure :D

kz_cg_venice by DaMp:

Truly a one of a kind map. Fast bhops with nice textures based on cs_italy. No need to jump around trying to find new jumps on cs_italy anymore, just go ahead and play this map. Geek your brains out! ^_^

kz_kzsca_cons by XaSer:

A very beautiful and well made map by XaSer. Again the textures is based on an old CS map, de_vertigo. The jumps are very creative and fit well with the environment.

kzcn_mahjong by sllove:

Ok, we are finally ready to release this bug free version of kzcn_mahjong. It's a map with a very nice & unique color theme and fun jumps. People who like long maps will love this :)

cg_oldtexas by Malvin:

A new texan-style map. You climb your way trough some fields then into mine to eventually get to the timer. There is a lot to explore. The skill level on the jumps are easy-average. // Updated 15:50 EST at request of Malvin. Please update your map. Sorry for inconvenience.

// MAP UPDATED AT 19:34 GMT+1, make sure you have the newest version on your server!

Good luck and have fun!

Special thanks to faker and omilo.

removing oldtexas was a really bad move imo.......

11/01/2008 17:22:00

agree with radon. ...i get really angry, because of those problems i make with my map -.- sorry for that :<

11/01/2008 17:31:00

jeah but it ruins the whole good work you did , so i think it's the best way to remove it first , so you can fix it . i like the map , but this sc is too bad

11/01/2008 17:31:00

much love from me forDaMp! making a map with "detail"-texture Nice one , sir!

Mr.Jumper
11/01/2008 17:35:00

The mapchecking team is soo embarrassing... You dont have any teamworking with the mapper and inside the team. In every single release one map is getting removed... that definitely sux! You know, just stop it with the maps... You dont get it -.- Let other people checking that stuff, who are dedicated to their work and have time to! If you say, that you are the only one, who are allowed to release official "kreedz maps", than do you job right! -! just my opinion !- Btw. a lot of friends and other communities are making fun of this, what you perform here... You should use your monopoly and dont discreate it. I hope you admins see the things, like I do and maybe I am just the one who speaks it out and dont blame me for this.

11/01/2008 17:42:00

gj MAPS

11/01/2008 17:46:00

Mr. Jumper ----> Agree

11/01/2008 18:01:00

Mr.Jumper no. We don't update maps because mapcheck team did something wrong, it's because someone finds a huge sc or a bug etc. Maps should be tested properly and checked that everything is right before sending them to us. We just test the maps are enjoyable to jump and look good. WE ARE NOT BETATESTERS.

11/01/2008 18:09:00

dudes just chill... everybody is human here and xj isnt a full time job... someone has found this sc now and the map will get updated soon.. ok, its a bit annyoing but its better to play an updated map without a easy uber sc :x I havent found this sc too, so I cant blame anyone here. I dont care if I need to update a map at every release, its just a few mouse clicks and perhaps an upload. at deMolite : youre allways against the "main stream" because you think its cool , but sry it isnt :/

Mr.Jumper
11/01/2008 18:14:00

just look one year back, or some more years... there werent any mistunderstanding things with any stuff here on XJ... and now its in every release (icebean, mahjong, oldtexas) and maybe someone has recorded oldtexas and than it has been removed... he records it again and than it is getting removed again... just sux.

11/01/2008 18:27:00

Mr. Jumper ----> Agree 100%

11/01/2008 18:59:00

agree with Jumper, too!

11/01/2008 19:08:00

Well "mr. Jumper" were [b]NOT[/b] betatesters.. We just test the damn maps judge their looks , jumps and performance. Sure we can look for SC's and we found some.. But its not us who make the map so possibly how the FUCK we should know malvin made another SC in the newest update? It was his request to reupload the map first. And your friends are making fun of the "mapchecking team" hahaha fuck em all I dont give a shit if you dont like me if you dont like XJ admins If you dont like the whole community were not payed to check maps.. So please understand that we have our own lifes and were not sitting 24/7 like you and waiting for the new maps to come.. I guess youll say something like "If you dont have time to check maps dont do it". So maybe im gonna rent you my place in the XJ for you. :D:D:D

11/01/2008 19:11:00

ye u r right mr. jumper :)

Mr.Jumper
11/01/2008 19:22:00

I am not sitting 24/7 in front of my computer... I am 18 years old and I have my own real-live and I dont have much time for kz. So i dont wanna get fame and glory as an admin, I refuse your offer for the XJ-admin place, but ty anyway. Please dont offense my friends, I have a lot and not only noobs... maybe you underestimate it. We as community have no fuckn idea what is going on inside the mapchecking team. So that is why I judge about it in a negative way. I think, that you are a TEAM, who is working together and is dedicated to their work to give the community a nice maprelease. Or is it the way, that you just know each others from WR-demos, maps, or from some chat in IRC...? We dont know, but you know...so I think you have no plan about, what the majority of this community is thinking about XJ. You are the one who is allowed to give maps the kz_ status and not the community with saying on this map is a bug you should remove it and fix it... It is all up to YOU! You should decide, if you want to check those maps and doing some other stuff, or if you want to do other stuff, which is more interesting for you... hard decision, but a good one for the whole community

11/01/2008 19:37:00

Yes we have the abbility to give the map a kz tag.. Were checking the maps were trying to fix almost everything we can but how can you just fix something that wasnt there before you fixed it? And understand that were not online most of the time I mean the whole team together so how do you think we can check the maps together and search every little unit of the map? About the decision thing well we want to check the maps.. If we didnt want to check these upcomming maps we wouldnt be here..

11/01/2008 19:55:00

You people are right about the updated maps, it's very annoying and has to stop. This was the LAST update AFTER the release, promised! In the future we will go back to the old system, which means if there are uber SC's in the map (example: risk_compound) the map WON'T get updated. The mapper has to live with his fault. If there are major bugs we didn't see we might remove the kz_ tag afterwards and trash the map. No re-submissions possible, so watch out before you submit your map. Mappers: GET YOUR OWN BETA TESTERS, we are here to judge the quality of your map, not to find shortcuts or bugs. Of course we will tell you all bugs and SC's we find, but thats not our primary objective! --- Mr.Jumper: The mapcheck system is based on our intern forum where maps are posted. Every admin posts has to post his vote in these forums. There is an IRC channel but only a few admins are around in IRC. So you are kinda right, we are not a real team and we aren't "friends" (@team: that doesn't mean I like you, it just means that we all don't chat 24/7 and you all know that :p), just people that work together in a forum. The mapteam shouldn't be a team anyway, just a group of people having the skills and experience to represent the community and to make fair votes on the maps to ensure good quality kz_ maps. And believe me... It's easier to talk than to do the actual work... The first months every new admin is motivated because it's new and fun to vote for the maps, but after few months EVERY admin gets demotivated and a bit inactive. I'm around for 3 years, it's the same with almost everyone. Humans are like that, they do what is fun for them... Unless they get paid, and we don't get paid ;) We do this all for your pleasure. Amen

Mr.Jumper
11/01/2008 19:58:00

We will see it in the future ;) I hope there wont be any mistakes again. I think 3 in 2months are enough, isnt it?

11/01/2008 20:01:00

2 little corrections: *Every admin /-posts/ has to post his vote in these forums * team: that doesn't mean I [b]don't[/b] like you, it just means that we all don't chat 24/7 and you all know that :p

11/01/2008 20:15:00

I agree with Mr.Jumper, theese updates to finished maps have to stop! I run a kz server and i am finding it really annoying to have to update maps everytime i visit the xj website.

11/01/2008 20:38:00

good work mappers and checkers and i dont care for updates... i got used to from windows ahhahaha :x

11/01/2008 20:58:00

yeah you all got 56k modems so it's very annoying to download ~3mb again *phew* :P

11/01/2008 22:11:00

if you got 56k modem the whole internet is annoying :E

11/01/2008 22:15:00

that's true faker , that's true :P

12/01/2008 01:40:00

it's the same with my cg_islands the sc i tested the map on and on it is absolutely my fault that i didn't see the sc but i think i have to live with that everyone here is still a human and makes mistakes but i think mappers should have the ability to update thair map after the release but not 4 weeks later or something ... and at cg_islands i jumped at the same place and i can't get the jump after 10 times so it was impossible for me .. some things in maps are standart and won't need such tests a good mapper does a good map .. i won't say that malvin has made a bad job but i want to say that it is malvins fault at mapping and when he's so sad about this sc let him fix it we are not at the army here .... but in one point i have to agree this updates are annoying... so in future let them betatest from some idiots they will find everything ^^ when u let test it from promappers or good mappers they won't find such bugs because they think the skybox is there and they will never come on the idea so jump there ... after partying and 24 hours non-sleep i'll love my bed now :)

12/01/2008 10:01:00

The mapchecking team are humans , too :/ just be happy that we get new maps at all. Dont offend people for doing mistakes... What s is SO ANNOYING about one click @ the xj page? Just let them try to give their best.

12/01/2008 17:37:00

I think I've fallen in love with your map XaSer :O <33 If I could you know I would have rated it 20+ :D

14/01/2008 13:30:00

stop updating XD
