I appreciate your will to help out, but look here:

http://forums.bots-united.com/showthread.php?t=2814

You will see that this site has already been linked. In fact, its admin is registered here and pops in once in a while. Well, let's say used to pop in once in a while. Now, with CS:S and HL2DM, it's much more quiet about PODBot than it used to be. :-/

When downloading from that site, bear in mind the following things:

1) 99% of all waypoints there are likely to have been made with PB 2.5. This means three things:
(a) bots will look in stupid directions when camping. This is due to a slight change in the way the waypoint data is interpreted.
(b) if there are buttons, bots might not use them correctly, as the button code has been changed considerably in PODBot mm.
(c) the WP editor in PB 2.5 didn't allow for some pretty nifty little things which make it much easier to make quality waypoints. This means that genuine PODBot mm waypoints have more potential when it comes to precision and features. These features would have been so hard and laborious to implement with the old WP editor that only the weirdest freaks on this planet would be willing to put up with the work.

2) The waypoints on this site come from various sources and many waypointers. Good ones, bad ones. You may find a good quality waypoint, you may find a WP file that sucks.

I recommend this site if you want to check a map with bots. Even with average or bad waypoints, you can sometimes see if a map has potential. Besides, some maps are so easy to waypoint that not much can go wrong. If you find that a WP is bad, you can still request a better one here. So go ahead and check for yourself. If you're pleased with what you get, all the better.

But as I said: A genuine PODBot mm WP file made by SF, biohazerd, Huntakillaz (where's that bloke anyway?) or me is likely to be a tad better than waypoints you find there (see reasons above) - which is not intended as a criticism against this superb site. I jsut wanted to inform you about some aspects you might not be aware of.
