Forest Gulch
XBox-only Blood Gulch with platforms
Balanced gulch

The site HaloMods.com seems to have a whole bunch of these. Unfortunately they require you to run a windows-only utility over the files before using them. Maybe there is a Mac equivalent? I’m not sure. Post here if you find out!

Sony’s “Video iPod”

Wednesday, February 25th, 2004

(b) it has minimal codec support

Interesting, nonetheless.

This page has lots of goodies about how to admin. The whole site is geared towards running UT servers. Cool.

Iain, Ronnie and I played a bit tonight. It’s definitely more fun with more than 2 people!

Give it a try!
