Hey, just wondering where I might download Siege_005 or whatever. Thanks in advance! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
One of the grooviest features of Half-Life is that you automatically download a map you don't have. It's usually a slow download, but it's a good fallback measure.
Most servers that run a lot of custom maps will tell you what site to download the maps from in the MOTD, since it can lag their server a bit to serve as the download location.
Most NS servers I've played on have disabled the map download feature, purely because it lags the server to hell, and as a result they automatically kick you. So it is advisable to go and get the popular maps beforehand if you don't want to be ejected from the server.
