Datag: I'd just write in the description one needs a mod for this map.

Ok, that would be a solution. Unfortunately that would make filtering (if it will be implemented in teestuff) impossible.

We'd need "social tagging" for teestuff smile

What IMHO is really missing is versioning. That is to be able to make as author a new default view version of a map. With different map/screenshot or description (the older version however should still be saved for reference, and viewable with an extra click)

Re: TeeStuff :)

@catpaw, link corrected, descriptions can be now filled with dots and colons (even with any other char wink). tags? i planed it and database is ready to store tags. it's case of one, two days smile versioning? hmmm... it isn't hard to do it but i have to think about it a bit. all in all - added to TODO list smile

Just add an extra field beside DM, TDM, CTF where someone can fill in his gametype. So I could add my FlagBall-maps with gametype "FlagBall" (although it appears on master-servers as CTF).

Another solution would be to stay with the gametypes DM|TDM|CTF and you add an extra checkbox and field for "MOD".

Hm, with this solution you need to update your code with every new MOD appearing... Wouldn't it be better to have a simple textbox for this?

Edit: I added my map fb_teamplay
Edit: And maybe you add the info "MOD" on the preview page, too.

Re: TeeStuff :)

I was bored so I did a quick translation into German. It's far from perfect (however the English original wasn't it, too wink ). You may convert entities like "ü" to "ü" and so on.

Re: TeeStuff :)

@datag, but when it would be textbox there will be quite impossible to sort maps with this criterion, because of different users may write the same mod name in different ways hmm new mods aren't released as fast as i can't add it in this way by myself smile big thanks for map smile mod section added in preview. and big thanks for translation :] i'm not so good at english smile

That's up to you wink But I would then prefer a list-/combobox in this case instead of checkboxes.

Please replace all these chars to HTML-entities: "äöüÄÖÜß". Your selected charset doesn't fit with these chars (and won't display in some browsers).

Re: TeeStuff :)

I thought about this a bit, and IMHO there is a "layer" missing. That is "gamemode". A map may depend on a specific custom gamemode or be useable by several. A 'game mode' can be either or both, a mod and/or special tuning.

So the gamemode should IMHO be a new catagory next to "maps", "skins" and "tilesets". When you upload a map, you can multichose from a set of gamemodes known to the teestuff DB for which you designed this map for.

Re: TeeStuff :)

hmm... maybe only tags would be enough to describe whole map? eg. if map needs race_mod to work author should just add "race" tag :]

@datag, deutsch language updated. now if language string soten't exist it will be got from english lang file.

I'd really make it a new group, gameconfigs or something like this. Since several maps could have the same special configuration.

I like toni's design (very much), but I think the actual logo is better...
Just with the curved border :]

What about a section for downloading MODs (patches/binaries)? Just a suggestion wink

Patches seem like a better idea.
