ctf_Naom or dm_Plastilin. dm_Junglelake looks good but the waterfall effect totally turns me off; the scenery for the water running down diagonally is almost perfectly 45º, flat :-X

We'll see how tonight's testing goes, but so far I can say that this project is a success; it seems to have gotten many mappers to be active again, and there are some nice maps coming up.

We were not able to playtest TW_Battlefield due to the length of its name.  I knew that was gonna happen.  -_-;

The map name consisted of 14 characters (including the tw_ prefix) where the limit is 12.

You could just rename file to ctf_tw_btf.PMS or something... i don't think this is real problem...

^I thought of renaming the file, but the others moved on to the next map before I suggested, so... ¯\º_o/¯.

So many good choices this week, I still think Plastilin should have won for originality.

FFS!
