    Ok, 2nd version of map pack. I'm in a rush because i'm going on holiday, but this is the beta for testing. As a result, there is no readme or creditation, because I just don't have time. The full version in a week will have.

    This is to find the bugs and stuff, when I do a full release, it'll be in general discussion, and I was told by dizzyone ages ago I could get front page and shit with it. There's a lot of maps in here, pushing (but not quite yet) on 40. The final release will also have Keef's new map and an updated hazard. They are nearly 600mb each. You only need 1. The exe is easier but the .zip is for people who think .exe automatically makes it a virus. Like I said, I used the empires installer script anyway and just edited the author, so it's secure, but the .zip is there anyway for you.

    http://mirror.kane.cx/freeshare/empires/trickster_map_pack.zip
    http://mirror.kane.cx/freeshare/empires/trickster_map_pack.exe

    Or use the .zip and extract where appropriate, if you have problems, post here and someone will help you. ANY MAP PROBLEMS ALSO NEED TO BE POSTED HERE SO I CAN FIX THEM.

    I'll see you guys in a week unless I get wifi or something.

    BUG EDIT:
    DO NOT OVERWRITE YOUR PARTICLE_MANIFEST.TXT

    This is stored in the particle folder. You MUST back it up and overwrite the map pack version with it once installed. Failure to do this will BREAK YOUR EMPIRES.

    I am not sure what you mean by new one or blue one, but the SOF that I've know since 2.21 (wen I started playing empires) has not worked in versions after 2.21. and this one that Trickster added to the map pack is just like the one that was in 2.21, I think.

    Hey Trickster, could you do a recompile of this for the newest versions, or is this still up to date?

    I'll be updating it when Pastori finishes the next version of midbridge. We've got a test version up on g4tc and it's nearly done, so I doubt it'll be long.

    EDIT: I could do it earlier if you MAKE MIDBRIDGE OFFICIAL.

    Also put in the king particle fix if you haven't already, the OP suggests you haven't.
