Was downloading a number of the old maps to put back on the server and pulled a number for testing.
As it turned out, it was a very good selection of maps with most being voted on for further testing.
as_coast - very balanced VIP map (which is rare)
de_cherokee - very small map and multi level. Hard for CTs but fun despite never winning a round.
de_soviet - mixed views but left on for further discussion
de_shishi05 - grey map. bit dull to look at but very good to play
de_artmuseum - very good map. CT statue caught many out
de_alps - This has to be the heaviest CPU map ever but the server can cope with it now.
de_grec - bright colours and maybe a bit T biased but needs further testing
de_algeria - scud/dust like in appearance and play
de_isolation - added.
de_downtown - added. Stolen the deadlock and costabrava textures.
de_builder_yard - added (re-tested and no lag on new server)
cs_waterside - added (not tested as we ran out of time but it was a re-test for lag - should be ok)
de_citypool - . Larger than poolday but with bomb planting objective. I'm not sure but it got voted on...for now.
The following maps were tested but not added
de_manilla - One sided map and was actually tested a long time back
de_mog - similar to cityofsin. Better textures but gameplay a bit dull.
The following maps have returned to the server after the new install:
de_scud
de_celtic
de_dust_castle
de_dust2002
de_damaged
de_dam_final
de_karachi01
