News: Mapraider v2.0 Is Live!

FreakinMeany FreakinMeany — March 1, 2013
It is with great excitement that I welcome you to the new and improved Mapraider.com! After more than 10 years of hosting and showcasing your maps, the site has been completely redesigned to make finding, downloading, discussing and sharing maps better than ever.

Over the next few weeks, we'll be sharing more about the many new features and improvements on the site. In the meantime, you'll discover some on your own -- everything from larger screenshots and real-time map stats, to a very cool browsing/searching system that's unlike any other gaming site on the net.

In celebration of our 10 years, we've completely opened up the direct download mirror for all members and added a fourth high-speed mirror!

And thanks to a handful of incredible volunteers, the site supports a number of languages other than English. Dutch, Hungarian, Italian, Spanish, Lithuanian and Russian are also currently available. You can let your browser choose automatically or override your language setting in your member preferences.

As with anything new, the site still has a few kinks and loose ends to tie up. Please bear with us as we work through them and let us know if you encounter problems or have any suggestions.

    Hey Freakin, I'm going to post this here, since I haven't got a reply from yesterday morning. I can't send private messages. Was trying to reply to your message for the voting error, tried two times with different messages but I always got the error message.

    The details of my voting error: I was on the map page when voting, clicked on the stars and I instantly got the error message popup (the one with the generic "there was an error, please try again", correctly translated, so translation works :D) but the stars were still grey. I tried to refresh the page before making a second attempt but after the reload the stars were colored.

    That was the PM, more or less :)

    New interface is really awesome !

    Note: when I log, only the fields are visible & not the text (login, password, etc) ?

    THX to everyone for the great work :D

    Thank you everyone for the awesome complimements. There are still a few little odds and ends that need fixing up, but it's running pretty smoothly overall. As soon as I get the last post-launch things taken care of, I'll begin working on the next major update and actively promoting the site again.

    @saka: I keep meaning to send some of the "old guard" an email to let them know that it finally happened (paticularly Sjosz). I just haven't had time to do it. Anyway, glad you discovered the update -- better late than never ;)

    Still having huge problems trying to upload on *ANY computer I try on. Hope you have the update implemented soon! ;) P.S. Figured out that compatibility mode for IE is the closest thing to a functioning upload method, but it still fails despite all efforts :(

    @FreakinMeany

    I'm sorry but I've tried to message you back but I get an error so this seems to be the only reliable way to communicate. If I can email you and you can respond that way, that works too ;) Let me know if thats ok, untill next time :)
