Yeah, my last attempt lasted for what a month then it got inactive,
Freelancer makes a good point.
So what if I had a server of Portent, No_remorse, teletubbies, cmt fragment v2, blood gulch, sidewinder, wizard, danger canyon and infinity.

problem with any custom map server, is most players could give a shit less to even have any custom maps..
Even myself, I can't say I have many custom maps, cause the likelyhood of even 4 players being online, WITH the map, AND having a server running it, is almost impossible, unless I have a massive maps folder filled with crap loads of maps..
Kinda why I gave up on the whole map creating process in general XD
Yoyorast still gets some hits...
Yea but there's at least three Yoyorast_Island 24/7 servers usually. If only someone could build some kind of app that auto downloaded maps that players didn't have... God, Halo CE would be win. I'm sure that it would be possible, some kind of 3rd party application like Xfire that can throw a GUI over the Halo UI. When you try to join a server and get an invalid map file error, the app could pop up and ask you if you want to download it. If the server is using the server side part of the app the client app could grab the IP address of the server and download the map from the servers map folder.
I know next to nothing about coding, but I assume this would be incredibly hard.
But that would involve restarting halo to make it register the new maps (read: too long, didn't DL).
Prime.
Excavation.
Hydration.
My favorite maps.
Some servers like TG's are custom maps 24/7 and they're quite popular. Start with well known custom maps and then remove some and add a good custom map that not everyone has. But then people know it's worth downloading, even your server runs it. I think this is the way how 2MA servers work.
Pen Island?
Oddly pen island doesn't look so bad.

That made by zsdg06 lets players download the map if they don't have it. But that's trhough xfire. and all it does it open a browser and give them the search result of hte map at halomaps.org
