@raspatan haha yes and no but I understand the confusion... you're right. It is an interpunction error.
Instead off I wanted to say:
The two maps in this pack and Des Hertogens Hove...
Cheers

@Takkie I think you got the maps wrong. THose are not in this mappack.
ctctf1: an ok map. Connectivity is rather poor, particularly in bottom floor of middle. If you are down there, you have a long way to go. It's also massive.
ctctf2: quite nice, resembling q3wcp22 by same author. Refreshing to see battlefield in a CTF map. Should be used more imo.
ctctf3: gorgeous egyptian-themed map. Plays fine.
ctctf4: worst of all. Very coarse design too.

In quake3 Geit excelled in ctf maps. The two maps in this pack, Des Hertogens Hove by Geit and Castle CTF by Geit are all great. Perhaps the use of distinct colours in ctf helps, Geits (later) DM maps are also great but are more monotone in colour and that works a bit against the layout.

Furious is also an official map in Quake Live too - one of the very last to be added to the game in fact (in its final update back in 2015, which also included The Olden Domain and The Duke's Garden by the same author). I am a little disappointed that the QL team chose that map considering how flat and corridor-y it is, over Midnight Keep from the same pack which has more vertical action and breathing room.

ctctf3 (Furious) by Geit can also be found in the alliance ctf pack. great pack btw. love the flag rooms on each and every one but 2 and 4 are my favourites. fyi: all these maps play well in the alliance mod.

STB = Some tasty bird
LMAO I finally got that!!! My favorites in this pack were Midnight keep and Crosstown traffic

"Download now!" is a very good description of this mappack :D
Download! NOW!

Best CTF maps I played for a long time. My favourites are Crosstown Traffic & Furious. Only had problem with Bold as Love. Playabilty was very choppy. I have PIII 450 with GeForce 3, 256 MB RAM, point release 1.32. It did't matter was I playing with 3x3 or 4x4 with bots - it was exactly the same.

edit: as Dazzler says, maybe it's a conflict between wtf-v1 and ctctf. i just can't tell for sure 'cause i never had it on my hd.

hmmm, i never had wtf-v1 on my hd. but i just tested wtf-v2(thanks for that credit, btw ;)), and that was not a problem...

so, actually i stil don't know what's causing problems for some :.

I can now play these maps after I deleted WTF-Q3A-v1, so they could've been causing the problem

thank all of you for those great comments. you make us proud and asure us to have done well.

Dazzler, can you give more detailed info? what point release/ when exactly does it kick you to main menu (loading map, awaiting gamestate, etc.)/ what vid-card are you using/ are you using some not-so-common settings/ are there any error messages in the console?

the time we released the pak (about 9 months ago:)), we got 3 or 4 out of a lot comments concerning about just the same problem as you are having now. those players never gave detailed info when asked so we still are unsure about the reasons for this "uncompatibility" :(.

thank you.

I stopped playing CTF for some time because the maps were getting so stale.

I'm looking for servers running these maps now.

Great werks!

Are you on the latest q3 point release (1.31) Dazzler? This is the only reason I know of why they wouldn't appear in the menu as they do have arena files. You can download the point release from Barrysworld. Hope that helps :).

How do you play them?...there is no picture to select in the menu and when I try /map ctctf1 etc it tries to load the level but just quits back to main menu :-(

Great pack. Well done. A permanent pk3 addition.

Four awesome maps. Definately a must to download.

Looking forward to more stuff of you guys.

well, we did not really disband.

we all have had exams, geit was having a "creative-break" and we decided to stop activities for a short period of time.

we will release a duelmap soon.

chickenteam leading chicken

I was surfing Quake3world when I first downloaded a ChickenTeam map pak.

I read that they disbanded. I am VERy pleases to see the team back at work! Only Threewave does CTF better.

This really is a great pack of maps, good work guys. If you like ctf this is an essential download. I quite like Bold as Love but it took a while to get my head round as the layout is very confusing when you're learning it. I couldn't really fault anything in the pack (I'm not the best person to comment as I can't get enough humans to play against but..). I'm giving it a 10 as it's so rare to see a map pack of this overall quality goes off to play some more. Nice map pack :).

Furious is quite fun 4v4, and though I do enjoy crosstown traffic and Midnight keep, they feel more suitable for 5v5, which we don't play (though the Euros do...how did we ever get this 4v4-5v5 Euro-US split?). Bold as Love I'm not keen on. Taken as a whole, this represents a fine effort at community-based map development. I hope these cats stick with this kind of arrangement.

kicks ass!

Great pack, as the review suggests. Grab it if you even half like ctf :-) 9/10
