Quake 3 maps in UrT?

[bagheera]

Few years ago I found Q3 maps by Hipshot in some UrT map repository. The climate of these maps is amazing. So here is a question: what you guys think about setting up a small FFA server just for them (lets say 6 slots + 2 spec). Server would be sr8 (+ knife?) only to prevent teleport camping and to play without kevlar --> to move faster and jump higher, what is very important for q3 maps.

Here's some links with screenshots and download:
Solitude http://lvlworld.com/media/Solitude

Rustgrad http://lvlworld.com/media/Rustgrad (1 missing texture)

Crescent http://lvlworld.com/media/Crescent

History http://ws.q3df.org/map/history/ (few missing textures)

Industrial http://ws.q3df.org/map/industrial/

Solar http://lvlworld.com/media/Solar%20-%20AEon%27s%20Edit (too many missing textures , so disqualified)

Estatica by Cardigan is also beautiful map http://lvlworld.com/media/id:1555

If you guys know more maps from Q3 (loading properly in urt) with similar climate please post links.

setting up another gameserver is always a big issue for since theres many 3rd party apps to be connected.
we have the 22226 multi server for such, we could do it there.

Yes please as soon as possible. There is a group of players who likes sr8 only. Often when there are below 4 players on the bomb server, people agree to play sr8 only.

There are often more servers than players. In my mind its simple market economy, more servers - less players on each server. Less players on each server makes the game less interesting. Making it less interesting, causes players not to play. Having a downward spiral.

But we are democratic, we could vote on it.

Since zietsh mentioned once on the server about copyright issues in conjunction with Q3 maps on urt. Here is some helpful discussion: http://www.urbanterror.info/forums/topic/32677-map-quake-to-urt/

For Frankie V there is no problem about 3rd party Q3 maps in urt: http://www.urbanterror.info/forums/topic/32677-map-quake-to-urt/page__view__findpost__p__359424

PS. I played these Hipshot's maps + estatica with bots. Pure fun, also due to a lot of curb stomps.

I am so sorry that I did not put northport on the server yet (. Tomorrow I will (promise!) !!!!
