.loc files for maps

[Panix]

During our nightly CTF games (11pm CST/12am EST @ crctf.clanhdz.com) I've ran into not having the .loc files for several maps that we've played. I was wanting to see if anyone had locs that I've missed downloading.

Particularly, I've wanted .loc for ctf3m2 (Red Alert). These would be cool to:

• ctfgold8
• ctf7
• ctf3m3

If anyone is looking for .loc files, you can download frenzy's pack of locs here:

Frenzy's .loc pack

Also, r00k, please hook up a link with updated .locs for customized e2m1 and e1m1 on crctf.clanhdz.com if you have 'em.

You can use Qrack to make your own locs.

Load up any map, and use noclip. Then to make a location u must define a location box. To do this move your POV to upper north west corner of your area, and type loc_startpoint and it will mark your current position, then move your POV to the bottom south east corner of your area and type loc_endpoint location where 'location' is the name YOU specify for that given area.
Also for fun type r_drawlocs 1 to display a grid of the current Location
and/or
show_locname 1 will display the name of the current area you are standing in.
this displays the name of each location, on the HUD, as you are playing.

and of course loc_save will save to /id1/locs/mapname.loc

if in all type loc_ and press tab to see other location commands
