    Hello,

    as the latest Thread about replacing DD with Mkart went with a "Yes" from the overriding majority, I've decided to replace DD in the next few days.
    However, I need good Map Suggestions - should be keep the "old" mario_kart or install a new one.

    If the last one, please specify one + a link to Gamebanana!

    Best Regards

    That map idea is good, but how the creator made it is not very good (my opinion on it) as the blimp is a way too good place to camp in, there aren't as many carts etc. It would be more fun if he created it around the already existing mario_kart (it might be impossible, so maybe i'm just whining). Unless it goes into a map rotation with some other maps that are currently available.

    I haven't tested these maps, but i was just looking on GameBanana :3 Going to test em now

    The 2012 looks Awesome with the tower. But the map with the blimp has a warp zone, secret location with a boss fight (Headless horseless horseman) so its got some stuff to make up for the lack of cars.

    Yeah its pretty neat but i just don't like the hordes of snipers, spawn camping heavy/scouts/pyros and middle building/roof engineers. I mean all that aside and its a fun map, Even if most of the team are sniper, scout and spy.

    Maybe have the one Doktor suggested, the 1st one Bunnie suggested and the original one on a rotation, maybe 1 hour per map?

    I guess there will be much of spawncamping again, ever though of making some moderators on it? not such powerfull like admins but moderators so they can kill/kick people.Looks cool to me +1 :)

    i don't think there will be, the newer maps are made to counter it, so unless they got a serious tryhard team of co-operating engineers covering all 6 spawn points then spawn camping should be much less of a problem.

    Okay, after looking into the Map a bit more, I saw that it is crashing the Server more often.

    So, we are gonna use the "normal" Mario Kart for the beginning, you may suggest any Map anyways.
    Also, I am trying to set up some kind of "Kill Zones" which automatically slaps the Players if they enter a specific Location.

    I guess a killzone should stop heavies from spawnkilling but engineers and snipers might still be a problem.
    Also make the roof of the buildings a kill zone to stop demomen.

    Hmm, the Plugin which I found does not seems to be working...
    It just does nothing.
