Disabled incapped grenade plugin

I have disabled the incapped grenade plugin.
It causes some bug (see forum)

Installed Simple AFK Manager

Installed Simple Afk Manager on all servers.
Settings are the plugins default.
Idle players will be kicked after 2 minutes.
Admins are immune (with flag "k").
Hope it works.

Updated the dynamic list of maps on the servers

Updated the dynamic list of maps on the servers.
Added further columns.
Added sorting by "Campaign Name" and "Changed" column.
I know these columns are not filled so much at the moment but I will add each new or updated map.
Older maps may be completed later.

New coop map: Lambda L4D2

We have installed a new coop campaign on alServ2016:
Lambda L4D2
Seems to be a nice campaig.
9 maps.
The first 5 are quite short and easy then it is getting more difficult.
Didn't play it till the end until now.

The talker.vpk also has problems with this map.
Crash dump occurs when connecting to the map.
Talker.vpk is disabled therefore at the moment on alServ2016.
We have to find a compatible talker.vpk version quickly.

Some also report incompatibilities with the "I hate mountains" campaign.
So if you see any problems please report them in the forum.

New survival map: Left For Evil Dead

We have installed a new survival map on alServ2020:
Left For Evil Dead
Seems to be funny with a lot of details from the movie "Army of Darkness"

Map update: Crash Bandicoot: The Return of Dr. Cortex

Updated custom map Crash Bandicoot: The Return of Dr. Cortex to v2.0 (final) 10/22/2012
When I tested the map, the bots were all dead when I connected.
The same problem has the Helms Deep survival map.
As a workaround you can vote for campaign restart via game menu.
After that the bots were alive.
I have loaded the second map and this problem did not occurs there.
So maybe only a problem on the first map (campaign start)

And have a look at the dynamic list of custom maps on our servers here

"Newbie" names are banned now

"Newbie" seems to be a new generic player name.
The HLstatsX shows 44 "Newbie" from several countries.
So this name is banned now for 5 minutes as all other bad names.
So change your name if you want to play on the servers.
