Download
You can download the maps with this link:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/17002839/S5maps.vl2
Extract into your base directory.
DELETE PREVIOUS WIP VL2 FILES if you have those, as this update replaces them.
DELETE THE S3 MAP PACK as this map pack replaces it.
Maps have an "S5" prefix at the beginning.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description of S5 Update
The S5 map pack is intended to completely replace the S3 map pack, as many improved versions of the S3 maps are making their way into the S5 pack, and the S5 pack will be fractions of the size of the S3 pack due to removal of custom textures and scripts (such as the boost pads) in order to be utilized on the Goon Haven server and other pub servers once Thyth's auto-downloader is complete. Possible future map packs will stand apart from earlier ones and not replace them- but S5 is an exception because of the size difference and the quality of the maps.

Why do we need to remove the s3 map pack. If it actually conflicts (the only reason to remove it, really), then that means you are going to unable to watch any demos that were recorded on the S3 maps. At least without jumping through hoops anyway.

Did anybody actually deadstop on the woody stand? The angles are so different than damnation where you have to touch down on the flagstand, I think 99% of my woody grabs are toe grabs.

If anyone has recordings of the last PU, please hit me up and I'll give you an address to e-mail them along- I'm planning on making a video to showcase maps for professional reasons, so this would be helpful.
