of course, another good idea shut down by the people who play the least amount of time.

It would be a good idea if the downloads weren't so fast, you know?

It's best to let the user pick what they want to download.

I'd vote for:

-Include a separate package of the most recent build and a lofty map pack
or
-Place a download link for a good and up-to-date map pack along side of or right below most recent build. (update map pack with builds)

Community Edition would do this, but needs updating.

i wasn't saying to include ALL the maps, i said include most of the popular ones. that wouldn't slow down the full download much, if anything at all.

i like your second idea, and it is likely that one may go through.

If this goes through, KnacK will arrive at your door at 2AM the next morning with a chainsaw, a petrol bomb and a particularly viciously sharpened walking cane.

Ideal candidates for inclusion with the game:
- GPL license
- Look good
- Play well
- Take full advantage of the game's features (multiple game modes, jails, etc.)
- Properly compiled with reasonable r_speeds

Do you have any maps in particular in mind?

The more popular pub/match maps are generally the ones we shouldn't be showing off. I say we put our best foot forward- with the new fast downloading, it's not really inconvenient to not have a map.
