Please suggest any custom maps that you would like to see on rotation in the spearhead freezetag server, post a link to the file too.
SOME QUICK GUIDELINES...
Map game type is not important, obj lib tdm can all be converted.
Please remember that the map will be ran as FREEZETAG, remember this when choosing a map, your favourite objective map, may not play very well as freezetag.
Framerates, just because a map runs really well on your pc doesn't mean it will run well on everyone elses, a good guide would be to check the "mtex" of the map to do this go in a standard map (berlin would be good) and bring up console, type fps 1
the "mtex" rating shows at the bottom of your screen. walk around the map and check for the peak "mtex" number then go and do the same thing on your custom map, if the number is way higher then the map has a chance to be very hard to run on lower spec machines.
once a map is posted here i will check it is suitable and post back, this wont mean you will see the map on the server though, that will be decided by a forum vote later next week

Oil Rig Assault : http://medalofhonor.filefront.com/file/Oil_Rig_Assault;73114 DONE but may be problematic as it has an mtex rating higher than ANZIO
Marakesh : http://medalofhonor.filefront.com/file/Marakesh;47433 DONE

More maps...if you're still interested
- From this site: http://www.mohaasweden.se/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=10
Recommended maps:
Wuesten-kaff (pack 1)
Fallen Village (pack 2)
thechurch_final (pack 4)
watten (pack 5)
Abbey (pack 6)
Also nice map but too high mtex: Tallinn Church (pack 6)
- From this site : http://www.mapraider.com
11thFlotilla: http://www.mapraider.com/maps/?fileid=3589
It's the only map I checked from this site. As you can see it has many more. You can all check it for more proposals.
Another site also seems interesting http://www.tmmworld.com/Default.aspx?tabid=152 but I got no reply when I registered.
PS. I guess Grimm will decide which are playable and after a few games with custom maps we can run a poll to finalize the custom maps rotation (just an idea)

The site for these is: http://www.surfcomputers.com/maps.htm
And having played custom maps for years, I think the best ones (which should be played as ft-obj) are:
-Howitzer
-Morning Assualy
-Navarone
-Neuville
-Renan
-St Lo
-The Lost Village
-VSUK ABBEY
-Canal
-Eagles Nest
-Thechurch_final
Tallin Church is the best map I have ever seen, but is rather complicated and I have never seen it on any server, so might be buggered. Same with that 11thFlotilla.
But the ones mentioned are all solid, clans have been playing them for years, and most people will have them.

tallin church is just one big bug, it doesnt actually run correctly in spearhead or breakthrough, there are a few issues with it, geometricaly it shouldnt even be as heavy as it is :S
navarone, lost village, st lo and st renan are allready done ( its amazing what dmw approval actually gets people playing :S I have to fix stlo or renan cant remember which, as being able to walk all over the roofs is a bit of a p*** take)
canal is a possibility..
abbey (vsuk version too) if i remember correctly had a high rating in certain places too, must check it again.
ill take a look at the other suggestions in the next few days.
these of course will mostly be played as ft, because we dont have enough time to teach kes how to plant a bomb
