Some Custom maps not displaying in list

Hello,

I downloaded about 200 custom maps from a Torrent, the problem is not all of them display on the list, but I am still able to access the maps that dont display in the list VIA the console command "/map chronic.bsp" for example.

Only about 60 of my custom maps display, the rest do not.

I know that some maps only display under sections such as FFA or Tournament, but most of the maps are FFA and they dont show in the list.
Is there a limit of maps that quake 3 shows in the list under skirmish?

Any Ideas?

Thanks.

Yep, only the first 64 are shown. But check out Map Man: http://www.jwivie.com/mapman.rar

Thanks,

Is there anyway to raise this limit from 64?

Another problem I have is that whenever I load some custom maps in my base3q folder, and then I try to run Team Arena,
The textures in the main menu are missing.

Thanks,
kidcash.

The limit is hard-coded, but I think the UI Enhanced mod bumped it a fair bit: http://uie.planetquake.gamespy.com/

Regarding the missing textures, what does the console say? (The thing you get when you tap the tilde. You can make a dump with '/condump condump.txt')
