Anyone know of any huge quantity of map zips on the web?

Post by schwim »

Heya folks!

I seem to have misplaced my huge archive of custom maps which makes me a sad panda, indeed :( Does anyone have any links/torrents/zips that contains large quantities of the custom maps that have been created over the years? I think I remember one absolutely massive zip with hundreds in it, but if it's out there, my GoogleFoo isn't finding it.

Thanks a bunch!

Thanks a bunch theft. I was actually looking for zips of bunches of files so I didn't have to browse through each and download them separately. I did manage to find a link to lvlworld's archive as it was in 2013, so that's probably the best I'm going to do. I doubt it will be missing much.

There is a package on the q3df.org forums that contains all maps on worldspawn, just search for "all maps repack".

Sorry, next time I'll use the level forum to ask how to solve world hunger.

It's actually not all maps - no DM maps - but all DF, CTF, freestyle etc.

You could go and use wget to batch download entire websites and in your case I'd go for the map files only which means going for ZIP, RAR and 7ZIP files specifically to get them all (at least on lvlworld). With this program you can get every map on lvlworld and ws.q3df.org yourself. But honestly, I recommend not going down that route as downloading every single map will cause a fuckton of traffic on the servers and I don't think that this is something Tig wants to see. Not sure about ws.q3df.org's stance to this.
Be sure to contact the respective site owner if you're going to use wget (or httrack and the likes). ;)
