Possible, though I don't see why.

It shows up fine in-game.

A lot of my earlier skins were added to UA by other people, which may explain why they're listed as "author: UNKNOWN".

This?

Is one of mine.

Can somebody put "EvilGrins" on it please?

With the exception of 2 things here...

...those are various map-edits I've done.

Why are they not listed here?

My fault, I suppose, for insisting on crediting everyone.

Need someone to delete this one:
https://unrealarchive.org/maps/unreal-t ... d0b6d.html

Apparently I forgot to put any files in the .zip other than the map.

Also, delete this one:
https://unrealarchive.org/maps/unreal-t ... cab05.html

I forgot to put the monster file in it.

There's a number of things about UA that confuses me, and I may ask about this other thing in a couple days but for now I'd like to address the search engine.

To make sure I'm not uploading the same map more than once (which has happened) I run searches to check, especially as I periodically have done edits of the same map multiple times with monster or weapon swaps; and with XV.

But it's not too effective when what I search for doesn't pop up even though it is on UA.

Why didn't that ⬇ search work?

Because the search probably reads the full map name as "find XV but not FragIsland" since there is a - between XV and FragIsland in the map name. So it won't look beyond "CTF-XV" and will ignore 'FragIsland' - no idea if the search 'engine' can be refined in a way to ensure this doesn't happen.

Search for 'Frag Island' and that map shows up with two others, as the phrase 'Frag Island' is in the text description/title.

I recently upgraded the search backend, and it's created some inconsistencies and breakages with searches, specifically with wildcards. Just haven't got around to sorting it out yet.

You can also try a Google or DDG search for:

I'd like you to delete this map...
https://unrealarchive.org/maps/unreal-t ... 90964.html
...so I can re-submit it with all the files it needs, which it doesn't currently have.

This is the mapping tool I use:

But it didn't mention any of those missing files:

What mapping tool does UA use, so I can get it and avoid these issues in the future?

Looks like it made a typo in his name and it didn't group it properly.

Josh "ReMoRsELeSs: Tyrell - https://unrealarchive.org/unreal-tourna ... 160ff.html

I'll make an alias for it.
