I think it was removed on ShadowRunner's request who is the author of the map. I'm not sure though.

Yeah it seems many veteran players dislike it. I find it amazing. In fact much of my inspiration for my pyramid setup comes from that map, and thus from Shadow himself. Thank you sir for that.

Sorry Proph, you may find my map annoying then :P

I liked it very much too, but I think he wanted it removed for the number of bugs it included.

I remember I fixed a number of issues one of one of Shadow's maps, can't remember if it was this Prodigy one though.

Wow that is weird I hardly ever came across any bugs. The only reason I could think of why people would want it gone was the convenient way you could put vacuum grenades under the doors. Hell I would get 20+ kills per game just for those bad boys :)

Damn was I the reason they took it off cause I'll stop doing that if I can have my favorite map back.

You should negotiate with Nobody, he's the one to manage Altfire Backup server

I think there's still two versions of my Titan ship on the server still, the beta0 needs to go, I'll have to update that map again soon, add a 2 way teleporter if possible, I have had issues with them in past.

Oh titan was yours. Very nice indeed. I'm sure you've heard this a million times, but it needs some more light.

Well ... Maybe this helps you:

It's a teleporter that gives you the possibility to choose where to teleport to ...

BTT:
Prodigy is a nice map. But it realy got some bugs. Some of them made it kinda hard to fight siriously. I think the best maps for altfire are Scoutzknivez (this map only rocks on low-grav!) and Encounter. As soon as I got enough time and enough interesst, I continue making my small chess map. It's completly remade though ...

Thanks Ani, the lighting thing I just like dark maps, plus darkness hides a multitude of sins :P I don't consider myself a mapper.
