OK that didnt go were I thought it would,
Anyway, i have finihsed a Map called FHI-Canyon. However, not being very great on internet things, I dont know how to upload the file, I have a simple home web page with some screen shots of some of my maps and info. but i cant upload my file to it, so guesing I have to host some were else?
Any help would be nice, willing to send it to some one who could then possibly put it up on a download link for me or something....sorry for being an idiot!

Ok, first of all, how big is the map zipped? If it's under 1MB email it to parser@beyondunreal.com
If it's over 1MB and you know how to use IRC, catch me or another team member in #fraghouse on EnterTheGame and send it to one of us, that should work.
Unfortunately I don't know of any decent webspace that allows for file storage without requiring a website itself. Hrmm...

Please could you let us know about it when the file is available to download? We'd like to try it out.
Ok, it is done Parser..

Download bcwood16's map:
FHI-Canyon (3.70 mb)
EDIT: There was a file missing, but it's now included in the zip, in case you've got the map -which i doubt in such short time- before i fixed the missing file, please re-download it. The link remained the same
/EDIT
Got bugs (eh.. the real ones) comments, suggestions, whatever, either post it here or send bcwood16 a mail: bazutmaps@blueyonder.co.uk

Ok ok.. it's a bit my fault as well, i should have checked if the map was running or not before putting it online and make a post.. sorry about that.
I have tested this time and it runs fine.

Cool
Though I have some issues with it. First worry is the size, hope people can handle it, especially sometimes when u zoom in, but the FPS compared to other maps with equal settings is about the same...so hopeing its ok
Second, hope its not too easy, thats why i had to use mostly normal weapons, not that i dun like FH weapons, just that their too powerfull for this map, but the mini rocket launcher is at the other end of the base, that comes in handy
Please give imput if anyone thinks it needs improvments any were or changes. Like to make it a map that all FH players will enjoy playing.

It's a nice map, yeah, I enjoyed playing it.
I opened it up in UED and understood that you tried to optimise it the best you can, so anybody whining will just have to put up with it if they get low frame rates.
I did notice that a lot of StaticMeshes had bUnlit set to true. Why is this? It makes them look ugly!
Anyway, with your permission, we'd like to include this in FHI2k4 v3. May we? (with a few static mesh tweaks, perhaps? 
)

(with a few static mesh tweaks, perhaps? )yup, i was expecting that about the static meshes, was sometihng i was thinking of fixing. Reason for this, was at the time i thought using lights would decrease frame rates. though one question about this. in UT normal mode, as if it was a DM or in version 1 of FH, things looked ok, but in version 2, it was too bright, no matter what i did? like the gamma was permently up? Not saying its extream, but did look different.
A lot was on bUnlet as i was messing about with something...didnt quite work. Will wait a bit longer then make changes, let me know when u need it ready by. Of course u can use it in version 3, would be very cool. In future they will not be that big lol

Let me know when you have a final version of this map and I'll host in on my server, if there is a redirect available.
No hurry, the original package came with enough maps to lat a while.

Hmm.. my feedback on this map.
First impression "cool".
1) Should have more health/armour pickups, as far as i could find only one of each in the bhack of the base.
Possibly put some health on top of the walls where sniper rifles are --> make it dangerous to reach them?
2) put somehting in the canyon (where the water is). at the moment doesnt seem to be much point in it.. looks v cool, but no waeps/ armour, except that sentry machine gun. Try moving the flare gun behind the fountain, and put some health/armour by the lower teleports?
3)Railguns seem to be missing and the ammo is floating :-D
4)like the base.
5)Next to the armour, where that invis walled off area is, are you meant to be able to go behind it by walking out of the base and folowing the wall left to the end and jumping over.. theres a small corridor you can pass down. bit odd :-D
6)seems to get slow fps at the opposite end of the waterfall when up top. Not sure why, all monsters but one were dead when looking around.
7) some form of vehicle.. maybe a tank or a raptor or more likely a manta
Manta will still be vulnerable form shots fired from across the canyon.
Nice map.
And these oppions are mine only. others will prolly disagree, and so will you. so feel free to ignore them all. :-D
EDIT---
8) Hmm just a thought maybe make the water lava?? This way any monsters caught in it will just die so you dont have to run around looking for them , and also makes fighting here more dangerous :-D

Cool, thats does help, im in the process of making a version 2. At the moment i have been consentrating on better lighting etc.
Here are are my replies.
1) I agree, it could do with more health and armour, may put some on other side of base and in the cave. Il have a look into it.
2) Not sure exactly what u mean by put sometihng there, if u mean weapons, yea possibly, though there is a sort of secret weapon in the canyon, not too hard to find.
3) Didnt notice the floating ammo lol, will correct that, thanks. A problem with the rail gun and other more powerfull weapons is that fact i found the game play too easy with them. I have tested it lots times, map is big so monsters get it bad from far off. Guess i could put one more powerfull weapon in it though.
4) Thanks, though it should look a tad better in version 2, lighting ways anyway
5) I know about the small corridor, a problem with a blocking volume, needs moving a tad. But no, ur not really supposed to get in that part. There are reasons for this, but wont get into it right now.
6) Not sure exactly were u mean by this, but it has done that sometimes to me, its all the waterfall effects when it hits the water, also some on top to look like lots mini splashes. Cant do much about that, unless i delete all the effects. Hasnt been a major issue yet
7)I did want to put a vehicle in it, but if it falls into canyon, u can drive about under water....its just silly. I will tihnk about it again though.
8) I did have that idea about lava, but I prefere water, though it would solve the vehicle problem i just said about. I think i will be leaving it water though
Glad u gave it a go though, and thanks again for imput. I will be improving on some of the points shortly

Will you be taking bUnlit off all the static meshes?
Also, just a point, you might benefit from lowering the sunlight's brightness slightly. Maybe from 150 to 100 or something? It'll make it look less "fullbright".
