The Hovel Update | 3/1/2025

1 March - SunnieD_ | 1 Comments

Heyo! Welcome to the month of March! Spring is almost upon us, and with it comes some spring cleaning towards the server. We also have a few new maps for the month up on the server. Take a look!

--- New Maps of the Month ---

Pit

Breaker
https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3424851243

Pall Mall
https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2732296311

This is somewhat important now. We have switched to a new version of UMC (Ultimate Mapchooser) that now allows Workshop support. More than 80% of the maps have been updated to now fetch from the Steam Workshop instead of FastDL.

Another thing to note is, yes, I'm sadly shelving TF2Ware Ultimate. No matter what I try, it is almost a 50/50 chance that it will crash the server. Still can't figure out the cause, and all links seem to point to the map itself.

Other than that, in keeping with the spring cleaning theme, a lot of maps are getting the axe. Say goodbye to a lot of Payload maps! I don't think they'll be missed much...
