Just ask the author if you can have it. I'm sure he's not a big fat guy sitting on his couch waiting to give you a hard time. ;)

Ok... I Will Try Both... Though i'll try q3map first ;-)

Textures are always screwed up, and brushes are everywhere. I wouldn't suggest a decompile. I would suggest asking the author of ATCS for the .map file.

I for one would not like to download gazillion clones just because some moron decided to modify it.

Absolutely. Hollowed cube spam is bad, ATCS clone spam is worse.
