yep, i know that there is a new version of CTF-Face on gamespot, there you should find the most user made maps around. 53 so far 
I was working on a UT3 version of my UT99 CTF map CTF-Dagnys-PussyWhIpPeD which would feel like a UT99 map and not a static mesh cluttered UT 2004 or UT3 map, but I kind of lost interest in UT3 and UT3 mapping and now it's sitting on the cutting room floor--cut out and textured and with half of the lighting done. It's hard to get motivated to map for a game and a game type that so few people are playing.
Theres tempest X pack and stalwart remakes, liandri isnt bad either. Oh yeah and a few different morpheus variants along with a closer attempt to recreate it
crnt wait for the bonus packs i say, there are no good community maps at the moment that are at epic quality... iv only downloaded one DM one, and thats the small one with the snow blowing in the wind. my hopes in the community this time arround are low
The problem with the remakes that people have done is that they are not of the standard that we should expect in 2008, iv seen soem maps look like UT2004, people need to remember that we are playing ut3.
iv seen some ut2004 maps look better then some of whats come out.. i only hope some experienced mappers are working on somthing

No good community maps at epic quality? Really? I can think of a few.
Dm-Shrine
Dm-Krodan
Dm-Yard
Dm-Garden of Dreams
And the entire HOLP pack
Dm-Shrine - I must say its "OK"
Dm-Krodan - lil bit disapointed with this, i know hes done great work in the past
Dm-Yard - havent looked at it - standard DM
Dm-Garden of Dreams - havent looked at it - sick of DM now
And the entire HOLP pack - lol you must be kidding, im talking about epic qulity from 2008, not 1999
ok there are some good DM maps, but im sick of DM, people need to make some CTF

There's CTF-Orbital2007 (OK it's a remake of the 2k4 version), DM-SPC-Pyramid and DM-TheConveyor. I haven't played any of them yet, although Orbital looks fun.
You mistake quality with clutter.
And CBP / UCMP are not the type of projects to release in such a short period after a game's release.
Yeah, I think it's a bit off to say there are no maps of the same visual quality as the stock maps out there. Krodan and a few of the others I've tried are definitely on par or better. At least in Warfare, which is mostly what I play these days, the stock maps are pretty conservative and are actually easy to outshine if all you're going for is the visual wow factor.
Regarding things like the HOLP: Just because more visual complexity is possible with new engine iterations doesn't mean that needs to be the ideal. The HOLP maps aren't even meant to be visual masterpieces but they all deliver quality visuals in a nice, uncluttered style.

UT99 maps are matter of nostalgy I think. Many of those maps are overcome in terms of gameplay thinking and general level design rules. Surely there are few that could be remade. I like UT99 maps but I'd rather not see them all in map rotations because I believe we are all further.
About HOLP... I'd rather play HOLP map than stock map simply because of gameplay level HOLP delivers. I still can put UT3 stock map as a wallpaper to get the best of both worlds (gameplay and visuals).

Hahaha... New advertising slogan?
UT3. Makes great desktop wallpapers!
Anywho, I just downloaded this remake of Codex. Very accurate rendition, though he seems to have forgotten the invisibility.

I guess what i mean by quality it high polly detail, not flat walls and blocky rooms.
No offence to the makers, I a fussy fussy person, small things can put me off a level, and I expect a high standard as i did with the previous generations (but people still managed to provide great maps)
I didnt like Krodan because the detail of the textures were not that flash, otherwise everything else was nice!
Dm-conveyor - I guess once you make a map and know how a map is made, when i look at his screen shots and see sh*ty mesh placement (or lack of) im not going to be downloading it. also the texture choise and alignment is bad.. ill wait for a real map thanks, if anyone can release one..
reply to others:
you call meshes clutter? do they get in your way? if thats what your thinking, then you know nothing about making maps and you are an idiot for saying such a thing. I say this because you can make a high poly detailed wall, and simple set it to block weapons only then put a flat blocking volume along the wall (think of this as your flat bsp wall that you all love so much), this way the player does not get stuck on anything, and the player can run up against the wall and glide across it.. I dont have a single bsp wall showing on my map, I put a mesh on every face and dis a smooth collision over it. so "clutter" you call it.. lol it makes me laugh that you think this. hmm i shall restrain from saying any more
