Yes! I have been porting DryIce from UT2004 to UT3 and you thought I disappeared, huh?!? Not a chance!
Man oh man! Do I miss the Cain's Lair days when we all played a 16v16 DryIce for over an hour (and Dawn and Ascendancy and on and on)!
Maybe with the pending expansion pack (and patch), we could get a 24v24 some day? This map port has excellent frame rates and might even be suitable for 32v32.
Who knows what the future holds?
Enjoy!

Here is what I posted at Epic.
Name: WAR-UGL-DryIce
Version: Beta3
Compatibility: UT3 Patch V1.3
Description: UT2004 to UT3 port of ONS-DryIce for UGL
Comments:
ONS-DryIce originally created by Michael -Kodiak- Joy (Stephen "Piglet" C-E created a 32 player version).
This map requires fairly large teams (i.e., 8v8 or more) and therefore, the likelihood of it being played in competition is is small. Regardless, this is one of my favorite ONS maps and hence, with Kodiak's permission, I am converting it.
WAR-UGL-DryIce is part of a series of warfare maps that attempts to bring the best of the best competitive UT2004 onslaught to UT3. The goal is not always visual aesthetics, but rather a series of maps that are fun to play on public servers as well as the more serious private match servers.
