It has alot of unreal maps but is very odd... first they are in a weird format second there is no pic or descrtion of the map and third how did all those maps get on that site... http://uz2.gameservers.net/ut2004/?C=D;O=A mabey thats not the main site but it is very odd but has a bunch of maps...
what I use it for is if I want a certain type of map like a stargate map... you can word search other wise its just a odd site...
the weird format could be a special decompressor made just for that site, or it could be something they added on to the end of the name ... try to download one and rename it without the uz2 and see if it runs.

No, .UZ2 format isn't specific to that site. It's a compression format used on many sites, specially for UT2K4 textures.
Hm it looks that that all the files belong to a UT2004 server, or maybe multiple ones.
It looks like a ftp site. Perhaps it isn't even wanted that people can download/acces files from there...and perhaps they forgot to enter a password? Maybe you lag the servers when you download files from there It is strange that even default files are available to download. I don't think that Epic would allow such things.
And who would pay the traffic?
Uz2 files are used by servers for faster uploads to the clients I think. I always asked why UT2004 wasn't able to compress the files before it sends them to the clients. But with a tool you can do this.

oh yeah I found a special decompresser for it its called uz tool... but how do those files get on the site? mabey if you play a map on a stat tracking the site then gets on the index... I have played my maps online but now on stat track mabey thats why its not there... I don't see other wise how it could get so big with such a plain site like that...
Oh btw Ill probly submit the cache extertor and the uhh uz tool to the site
uh wow nvm I found some of my maps on there... thats sorta creepy...............
yup, now thats creepy
I found my two maps InstallationXY15 and BlastedCanyon on the list. I don't think these were ever played, but they are there.
There are no ONS- or VCTF maps (and many other missing gametypes) which is strange. Gaming sites wouldn't host only CTF DM and BR for Ut2004.
Very nice find
How are the download speeds?

Yeah, the document file is a < 1 MB download LOL (I can see that in the Opera browser)
The site doesnt even have pictures but loads so long
But I cant see the download speed because that computer is using a proxy and wireless lan and alot more stuff that I dont know about
