A new mapmaker package is now available from the download page.

This is the latest B5 release of the public maps, arches, and server, and Gridarta.

The main reason for this release is that there has been a change to the way maps store the name of the background music they use -- See this thread.

In theory tou can just unpack this mapmaker over your existing B5 one. In practice, this may overwrite some of your changed maps and arches!

The thing to do is to backup the arch and maps directories from your existing map maker first, then unpack this one. This way you won't lose stuff.

You can the copy your changed maps and arches back as needed -- but note, only copy the ones you have actually changed and you will need to fix the background music as detailed in the thread linked above!

You must also use the 203 client (see news) to connect to a server running these maps (older clients won't work).

Sorry, thhat sound complicated but it's really not -- backup any existing mapmaker to a safe place then download and install the latest client and this map maker over the top of any existing ones and everything will be fine.
