TBL_X1 My Updates do not show up

[REZ]

Hello,

I did update my map TBL_X1 some time ago. The updates and new screens do not show up.
I did also add a text, that explains what the Update is about (The Bugfixes).
Is that not wanted, so I won`t write so much in the description again.
Don´t want to get someone on the nerve, by wirting the Bugfixes down.

Please do tell me, why are my Updates not shown.

Have a great day,

C.U. R.E.Z.

Since Zarel was marked as inactive , i'm not even sure about who approves the maps now

[JDW]

effigy and Black project are two fellows, that I know of, who are on the map reviewing team. Although, I'm not sure if they have the authorization to approve submitted maps to be added to the Addons section.

Last time i asked, effigy told me that only Zarel can approve maps (though many can review them).
But it was some time ago (: Well, looks like he watches the forum (: Hope he comes and explains what will happen (: (: (:

I'm curious to know as well, I have submitted 5 maps of a friend recently to be added to the Addons, if they are approved of course.

Currently the maps just need to be rated, about 25.

Indeed, AFIAK only Zarel can give addons approved status, moving them to the page http://addons.wz2100.net/ The last I was told simply rating them isn't enough (they are approved manually). So, I guess there is a sort of checks-and-balance to getting things on the addons page. Reviewers give their opinion of the map, and at the same time give a quality check to let the approver know if the map will crash warzone, or is for some other reason unplayable etc., in which case the addon will likely remain in addon-limbo.

Recently, I've learned users can check to see if their upload to addons are approved and what rating they were given. Unfortunately, I've also heard that reviews can not be read by a user if their respective addon was disapproved. I say unfortunately, because if I rate something below the quality threshold (AFAIK <0.5) I will list why in the addon's comment section. In the past I have PM'd a few people about problems, partly because I didn't know they could see their addon was disapproved, and also because I happened to have time.

If a map is unapproved, it doesn't have a rating(not reviewed). Disapproved means, well, it's not approved.

If you're addon has been disapproved feel free to PM me about it, or find me in #warzone2100-games, and we'll discuss the issue.

Similar to what you might recall reading in posts from any given developer, I don't have time to review addons in real time; and obviously, the other reviewers seem to not have had any time for them at all. I'm a reviewer because I'm active in multiplayer, I enjoy playing new maps, and have a good upstanding of the multiplayer side of Warzone (I also enjoy moon lit walks on the beach, having my hair brushed and Chinese food).

If what I'm saying is accurate maybe we could get this post stickied somewhere (I've been asked several times about the process from several different people since the review process was started)? The only threads I've seen about the addons page is a request for unrestricted reviewing/comments. I get the feeling the addons page is under infrequent development, but development non-the-less. It'd be nice if we had a dedicated thread to see what the plans are, and have some notice when changes occur.

While I'm on my soap box, I encourage users uploading maps to include at minimum a screenshot of the mini-map. You can export a bitmap from flaME or by taking a screenshot from the map preview in the skirmish/multiplayer game setup. I also encourage users uploading mods to include some sort of screenshot that gives and example of how the mod affects game play.

Anyhoo, fyi, the attached is what I can see that needs review, atm:

Hello,

TBL_X1 was already updated by me to Version 1.1.1. (not shown) and now days ago to Version 1.2 (not shown).
I did add some screens too.
In the meanwhile some of my ratings for the map got down, even if I did fix a part of mentiond issues and wrote replies to that in the not shown up updates (now time ago).

Please review the TBL_X1 Update 1.2 also.

Thanks for Your efforts.

Have a great day,

C.U. R.E.Z.

I've just PMed Zarel on this strange issue, and he replied that anybody on this list can approve addons.

I feel as if this actually starts to sound as some website problem. Just for the sake of debugging, here's what i see:

Yeah, I can approve addons and I'm guessing the other people on that list can too.

Though we do seem to have varying lists of unapproved addons, the list I see is too big to fit on one page.

Still, those minor updates (by REZ and me) lie rated-and-unapproved for a couple of weeks already.

Someone has made it! Thanks (:
