I'm guessing it has to do with amount of storage in bytes since it seems i sometimes have to remove several maps to get 1 to upload right

Yes it is to do with storage space, the map record numbers should be good for a couple of 100 thousand or even more.

if i remember correctly as that was a previous error when i was here cant remember exact figures im old and senile now.

I'm willing to help, so feel free to remove any or all of my maps under my user name.
I tried to put the links to them in here, but when I checked them, I got some kind of error, guess I'm doing something wrong.
I think I only have 3 uploaded:
How I Would Kill OJ-JOTR
How I Would Kill OJ-(IC)

Thank You for providing us with an awesome web-site,

I have made this post before, however someone deleted it. We can not play any of the old IC mod map that were made for IC mod 1 or IC mod 2. The buildings and terrains have changed. Why not delete those and it would be a start to space saving.

no way around them being unusable?

I was thinking if it was still possible with the right old JO updates to roll back to where you could play these maps. It might be ok just to leave the SP for now and remove all the MP maps.

Are some of the maps in the IC MDB still playable??? IC MOD 3 maybe????

If this was the case it might be hard to determine which maps are unusable(mod1 & 2) and which are usable

Can I assume that we have archived all the maps that were removed, or have they just been completely deleted / lost forever? :(

Deleted.

Alot of what was trashed had either invalid files, or didnt work any longer due to a few game updates and some were just absoloute junk that had sat for years with little or no downloads, rateings or feedback.

good to have saved the skins they can be made available in the future in their own area but most of the maps removed(speaking of those Ive removed) would need an area all their own called "junk maps" most of those removed have long been forgotten and wont be missed by but a few(mapper).

Its the MDB tough love thats long been needed to keep those 4-50 total objects that float glitch and or flash maps from being dumped and polluting the MDB so much as to where its tough for people to find a good map. Its a different story if they at least try to update but you get some that say "If it needs to be fixed your welcome to fix it"

Those that are either to arrogant, or to lazy to fix problems in their maps when clear to every1 but them that their map is total crap its time to say bye to that map.

No offense mate, but I dont work that way. If its crap, its gone. No tears, no remorse. Im sick and tired of the cry babies that put out the garbage were cleaning...I havent seen a single complaint yet about a map that was remooved.

Give it time and youll have the same problem at Reload. Bunch of crap maps and youll have to sort it.

Maybe then youll agree. Until then, i'm not gonna bust a staff member at all for dumping the trash.

It's still cleaning time.

Tough Love.

Better update quick then, because if your map is over a week old and not updated...its toast. Work on your english and grammar while your at it. And quit digging up old and dead threads.

I have 0 tolerance. Don't push my buttons.

The cleaning of the JO sections is done.

So the maps which are in there now ,will stay.

Unfixed newer maps or dumpers will be removed weekly.

When you know or made some BHD or DF2 maps which can go bye bye,post the Title and ID in here please.

We will take care of them.

Thank you

Major Headache tells me our space has been doubled, so you can stop cleaning maps.

You may carry on with maintainance, and remove stuff that doesn't work..etc...

If we have any errors now, I'll need to know what they are, so I can get Mich from the host to take a look at the php code for us.
