isn't mapping technically impossible because of the megatexture thingy making maps weighting something like 200+MB ? (meaning : nearly nobody will download 200MB for a map)

doesnt take a mega texture to port supply depot to etqw ^^

can you bypass the using of megatexture for floors ?
or can you make something which will not weight more than xxMB and will look decent ?

You can make maps without a megatexture - think q4 like maps.

Of course theres nothing to stop you releasing a 200Mb map, and I'm certain people will. Whether they'll be popular on servers (especially as they'll be unranked) remains to be seen.

I'm waiting for the tribes mod, that's about it.
