Map Exchange

[ETbyrne 0]

Hi, I was wondering if there is a Red Alert/Yuri's Revenge Map exchange site? You know, where you can upload maps and comment/rate on other peoples maps.

 

I'm wondering this because of two reasons.

 

1. A map exchange would be nice so people can play others maps.

2. If there is no map exchange allready, or there is one but it stinks: Me and my brother where going to make one. :wink:

 

I actualy have the script for the site about 85% done allready, so it would only take a week or two to finnish.

 

Side note: I've been playing red alert for a looong time. (Not that you care. )

Elaborate, that wasn't very clear.

I need something for ES and this would be great.

Sorry if this sounds stupid, what is ES?

Just to let you know I'm very new to this site and haven't been involved in any on-line RA2 communities until recently. (even though I've been playing the game for many years :? )

 

Ok, so it sounds like you want to do an article, am I on the right track?

He misspelled. He meant to say FS, which is his website, FreedomStudios.net

 

He wants you to email him with your situation, so feel free to Private Message him, as he'd like to talk to you more about the map system you speak of.

No. I meant ES... Editing Source. And it needs a mapping section.

Some info on the exchange:

 

1. Depending on how many features I cram into the script depends on how long it will take to complete. Hopefully no more than a month.

 

2. It will have an awarding system where if you DL someones map and you like it, you can give an award to that map.

 

3. All maps will be posted by users and will be added instantly automatically.

 

4. It won't have a forum because I don't want to code it. :lol: I know I could easly get one of those free ones, but that means someone would have to regester twice. Once to do everything on the site, and once to post on the forum. Instead of a traditional foum the site might have a "what board" where you can post a thread like on a regular forum and post replys. It just won't have a lot of features, that's all.

 

5. Oh, and no adds!

The scripting is almost done for the site and hopefully it won't be long until the site is up and running!

 

I got a little behind working on this because I had a robotics competition last weekend and wasn't able to work on it. So that's why it is not done. :wink:

The site is 90% done and hopefully I'll have it up and running by some time next week for the public.

This has to be stalled for a little bit, because I haven't had much time lately with drivers ED and other stuff.

 

The good news is I'm planning on adding support for C&C3 and Generals.
