The [BC] Crew (visit homepage for more details) has finally compiled and packaged a rather freaking large new MAP-PACK-N-YO-ASS (Update #9), which is released in eight 7.95 meg chunks (to be as friendly as we think we can be to the modem folks). It includes a shitload of new textures (a bunch from upcoming new maps), new sounds, half dozen original source .MAP files (not decompiled, the originals) and the following 39 new or revised maps:

You can grab the (7) zip files from here. For those of you who NEVER bother to download the map packs you are missing out. The packs include missing SKY textures, and custom SOUNDS; something servers cant send down -- PLUS you save a hell of A LOT of time by downloading them compressed.
