the maps are in the duke3d folder itself, and the file really is there...
i've tried it with and without the .map at the end... i've even renamed it
to lowercase letters in the hope that it would somehow matter

on the other hand... i tried your floater map and it worked fine (even
though you say it's for atomic only)... nice map too... took me 37:44 to do
it with my usual cheats (god/weapons)

by the way... is there any way to have unlimited jetpack without the god
mode cheat?  i've looked through all the con files and haven't seen anything
for it... as much as i love playing god, it just makes the game pointless...
even with my health, armor, and weapons at 999 :)

that's the one... i even tried to get around it (being a web designer, i
know a few tricks) and just got error messages from the server... actually,
i'm kinda surprised to find anything on the net for this game at all
anymore... must be due to all you loyal fans who are still waiting forever
for forever... hopefully i won't die of old age before it comes out
