This thread is dedicated to investigating which old synergy maps work and which don't, and how they might be fixed. I will attempt to keep this first post up to date, although mods/admins should feel free to edit it too.
gmc.jimmy has already posted some generalised suggestions on fixing maps. It should be noted that ALL maps will require a generalized .edt file. Will post here one based off Jimmy's plan when I've tested a little.
Maps are listed so far from my collection, will add others on mention.
Format is as follows:
/Mapname with download link if known/ /Works in OB? (Tested)/ /Fix .edt file / (Any notes)

Request: Split official and community maps.
Tell me which they are, as I have long since forgotten.

I suggest we dont' look too much into this until the new map pack is released by steam.
unless you want to MAKE THEM WORK your own way and feel a sense of accomplishment.
can't wait for the new pack my server was always mostly custom map pub and I still get so mnay crashes on ep2

I think some of the maps that came with 1.1, once tested should be included in a synergy update and added. There isn't very many syn maps been played as of now because of this.

You can kiss all the trials maps goodbye. They are completely dependent on the weapon_medkit, and standing on each others heads. The maps need major structural changes to function, and when the adjustments are made the maps won't be the same.

yes you can kiss them good bye and welcome trial4 which contains all the trials in one

Yes, Lexxy's Trials4 map works amazingly well on Synergy OB.
He's even included some of the newer Synergy entities.
His maps will be in the next Synergy Steam update.

Any estimation on when these new maps will be out / when the update will be released?
I'm eager for some new maps
Oh and the thing is..now that you have Steam behind you, couldn't you just add a few maps on one day to stop us bothering you, then bug fixes and perhaps another map the next day?
Just a thought

I could fix up of some of these maps if needed, (Recompile in OB engine/HDR) and remove weapons like the flare guns and fists etc.

Well thing is flame, Valve doesn't work weekends. We still need their help to get updates out on Steam.

Ah bugger. Thought that could be one of the advantages of a mod...being able to release updates and offer support all week long
Plus, it's Monday where I am..so I have to remember to think in the past.
So, how does the update process work anyway? You send it to them, they put it on their servers, and tell everyone's clients that an update is out? Probably a lot more complicated haha
