This is it, you dont need to go to a Map Download Center anymore and search for maps, this probram download it for you.
You choose a database map(or just use the default), and a list shows to you, then you click on the box and the program download the map you want.
Features:
* The most know it(and un know it) maps.
* Download the maps from multiple mirrors in a incredible download rate
* Its Eazy: For download any map just click in the square.
* Remove old maps: For remove, you just need to uncheck the square
Requirements:
* .NET Framework 2.0

Download: SourceForge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/tremulous-br/files/Map%20Downloader/TremulousMapDownloader-1.4.1.zip/download)
Source: SourceForge (http://tremulous-br.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tremulous-br/tools/mapdownloader/tags/1.4.1.tar.gz?view=tar)
Wiki/Manual: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/tremulous-br/index.php?title=MapDownloader
Change Log:
Version 1.1:
-Now the download is simultaneity between the mirrors
Version 1.2:
- Need only .NET Framework 2.0 and removed references from the control of WebBrowser(for linux in wine)
- Using HtmlAgilityPack for HTML parsing
- Uses only one mirror for archives smalls than 1MB
- Now you can choose download multiple parts in the same file, if the mirrors supports.
- Possibility to cancel the downloads
- The download now is show in a new windown
- Now is Open Source, under the GPL v3.0
Version 1.3:
- New Interface
- Support for more than just one "base" folder
- Now, there is no need to select the "base" folder, simply select the root folder of Tremulous; i.e, C:\tremulous instead of C:\tremulous\base
- More adaptable to different connections, with User-configurable settings
- Downloads in parallel with setting the amount of downloads that will be held(download 2 or more maps at the same time).
- Checking identical IPs when downloading files
Version 1.4:
- Now, it detect map conflicts. Still basic, only detects the conflicts, but don't do any action. For use the Conflict Detector, you most refresh the PK3s list first. Screenshot: http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/318/tmdcd.png
Version 1.4.1:
-Some code refactoring
-Added file deletion for conflict detector
Credits go to Chimaera, a Brazillian guy who made this.

Awesome!

Ok so your saying that we can download all the maps in one go. And if so where do you download the files to
-
Is there an option to select/deselect everything?
-
You really don't want everything. Most on that list are never played (either crap or old versions) and having too many maps can make server's crapout, so probably not great for the client.
And there's 4.4gb on dl.mg.net atm, and it's only going up.
-
In that case, for the next version, I think it would be nice to have an option to download some of the essentials (pulse, procyon, UTCS/ATCS-Z, maybe hamunaptra, etc) more easily (maybe something to check them all off, or just a button/menu option to do it immediately). I'm just suggesting that, it might take a bit to get a decent list together.

some of those maps stink....

Gee! Noway!

Does it consider that many servers have multiple domain names (and some domain names may refer to multiple servers)? I know that it extracts its mirror list from http://betaserv.game-host.org/paklist.html which has, e.g., tremmap.omgwtf.nl and tremmap.ttzn.nl which resolve to 77.249.62.218. It might be a good idea to assume they are the same server and not have multiple simultaneous connections to the same server to download the same file.
Also I wonder what it does when a server does not properly support ranges.

Thanks for the Feedback, the Devoloper of the program appreciates.
New 1.3 Version Released

Out of curiosity, are you Chimaera's PR guy? Or do you contribute to the coding of the program as well?

I am not Chimaera ;)

I know it is popular but a cross platform tool would be great
