Breezie has update his popular RtCW Map Downloader to version 1.0

What?:
This is an application that works together with the game 'Return to Castle Wolfenstein'.
It automatically downloads missing custom maps for the game.

Why?:
Unfortunately RTCW does not support HTTP downloads.
Downloading maps at 12kb/s takes way too much time.
Thats where this app. comes in handy.

How?:
1. Open the EXE file.
2. An icon will appear in your tray.
3. If a map is missing, RTCW will be shut down, the map will be downloaded and RTCW will restart.

Requirements:
   - RTCW (1.0, 1.33 or 1.4)
   - .NET Framework 4.6.1
   - Downloads must be enabled on both client and server (sv_allowdownload 1 & cl_allowdownload 1)

Notes:
   - You can view a list of supported maps on the website. You can also add maps and download URL's.

1.0 Changes:
       - Completely rewritten from scratch in C#
       - Fixed several bugs from previous version
       - Downloaded PK3s are now checked on integrity

Return to Castle Wolfenstein Singleplayer Misssion - Vendetta 2 - Demo Version

Yo$hik has released a demo version of his "Return to Castle Wolfenstein" singleplayer addon mission, "Vendetta 2". This 3-map adventure, although still a work in progress, has made superb progress already and it has been a real pleasure to test it.
Hopefully, after this successful demo version, Yo$hik will continue his work on this superb project and our "RtCW" Community will get to play this singleplayer mission in its entirety. In the meantime, download and enjoy these excellent maps.
