Do yu know who medor is? He says my version is the correct one... but whether or not it is, did you try my map with your version of BPAK or are you just assuming it could crash?
Try your version on my map, I'm pretty sure there won't be any issues and if I'm right, then you can avoid mismatches.

Yes I tried your map with my version on the server and it crashed. Your file could totally be the original one. Mars set this server up a long time ago so there's no telling.

Ok here's the scoop on BPack and then i'm not wasting any more time on it, lol. Like I said, Apparently there are several versions of BPack out there in server land because people don't rename files when they change them. I'm not saying anyone here did that but it happens. I never assume anything when adding maps to a server, been doing this for almost 20 years. When a map crashes it crashes. I just did a brand new install of UT99 on my wifes computer and the Bpack on the mars server is exactly the same as the BPack on my wifes computer. Even still I am not trying to point the finger or prove who is right or wrong. The mars MH server is an iconic server that has been around a long time. I have chosen to make as few changes as possible. I am sure BPack is used on more than one map on the server and I won't sacrifice any of them for one map. I have been gracious enough to put 3 other maps on the server for you and I am willing to add more but I am not adding any maps with a mismatch file no matter the circumstances. Say hi to medor for me.

I can't wait to try these MH maps on CMH this weekend! Also, on the CMM server, the Monsters in this map didn't stand (much of) a chance against the PirateDeemerCMM. Well, 1 or 2 of them lasted a "while", and gave me some grief, but succumbed to this deemer. More later, after I play it some more this weekend - maybe the monsters in this map will try harder this time? Is there a way to Tweak the monsters in this map?

Is there a way to Tweak the monsters in this map? Individually yes, but that works best when they're placed directly onto a map rather than spawned from Creature Factories. I've some MonsterPacks with insanely powerful monsters that would basically laugh at the PirateDeemer... but thought I'd hold off on those until later. Although... unreal-games.livejournal.com/63310.html...try that if you don't wanna wait.

So, tell me more about tweaking the monsters ... Do you do it in the map's properties? - Or how/where? (I should remember this as I used to do this - but it has been so many years now) Hmm, maybe you should Post a tutorial about these Monster laden maps and tweaking, etc? (maybe we could create a Section here at HUTP just for your "stuff*)

Maybe a post later. With monsters placed on a map individually you do it one at a time or all at a time with monsters of the same type. Select the monster or "select all" of that monster, right click on 1 and bring up its properties. I usually go with different skins and/or projectiles, while increasing the amount of health it has and damage it can do.
