Map Testing - March 1, 2009

Hi all, we're finally back with the results of a new map testing session. A total of 21 maps were tested, and 4 have been found good enough to stay on the server.

On a related matter, our map uploader at http://mtasa.littlewhitey.com/upload.php was broken last week, but is now working again, thanks to raz0.

-- Csena_s_BirthDAY_By_Rao --
- Confusing start ([O.o]Alpha)
- Confusing CP2 ([O.o]Alpha)
- agree (raz0)
- Huge clusterfuck possibility at CP7 ([O.o]Alpha)
- Never liked jumping down the twisty road ([O.o]Alpha)
- some obvious quirks (especially at start), but it has potential (Cygnus)
- Agreed ([O.o]Alpha)
- Wasn't all that exciting. Nothing you haven't seen a hundred times. (raz0)

-- venturas_hard_race --

+ nicely fixed (Cygnus)
- I'd like to see the bike jump fixed. (raz0)

-- ZoomBoomVII --
- Airport ramp seems bugged - got semi-stuck in it twice. (raz0)
+ No hydra this time! (raz0)
- I prefered the Hydra ending; I was only voting for a different plane for it ([O.o]Alpha)
- dont really care about the hydra, so other version stays (Cygnus)

-- MTA --
- I hit the stadium dead on after the jump ([O.o]Alpha)
- Seemed to be easier to get up on the stadium @ CP46? Needs to be easier anyway. (raz0)
- will need to see how the start works out with more players, but looks ok (Cygnus)
+ Except for the stadium ramp, very nice fix. (raz0)
- agreed, one more flaw (Cygnus)

-- SF-LV-LS2 --
- Needs bigger start CPs ([O.o]Alpha)
- CP 45 needs to be bigger ([O.o]Alpha)
- 48-49 sucks, Phoenix optional ([O.o]Alpha)
- Patriot optional too. Use CP changers. (raz0)
- Checkpoints too close together sometimes. Especially in the sanchez part. (raz0)
- too many checkpoints at start, give cars some time to space out first (Cygnus)
- Really boring parts (patroit part especially). (raz0)

-- LosSantos1mission --
- Too small first CPs ([O.o]Alpha)

-- Bowl-DD-by-MIEP_MIEP_fix --

-- Nutter_X-Mas_Present_By_Rao --
- Pickup spam ([O.o]Alpha)
- HORRIBLE path from hotdog to dinghy ([O.o]Alpha)
- too many pickups at finish (Cygnus)
- Very close from the start. Add a bit before the start so people have time to space out. (raz0)
- first part was too tight, hotdog part sucked (Cygnus)
- Also, why the hotdog end? It sucks. End the race just before you exit the city. (raz0)
+ Otherwise, very nice map. (raz0)

-- Fur-Q_X-Mas_Present_By_Rao --
- Horrible change to infernus at CP 30 ([O.o]Alpha)
- agree (raz0)
- Not very fun. Your other x-mas present map was way better. (raz0)
- End is one horrible vehicle after the other, especially the Mesa ([O.o]Alpha)
- also bad boat to start a race, turns horribly (Cygnus)
- and at least add some nitro for the newsvan (Cygnus)
