[cod] [linux] Custom maps no longer work with patch 1.6 ?

[Admin WBD]

I confirm what Vaughan says for mp_argentan. The good point is that no file
has to be copied to zone/english. But the iwd file must be in the mod
folder.

But i still have a map that doesn't work at all... With patch 1.5, i had no
problems on this map...

Could someone try it on his server ? I'd like to be sure it doesn't come
from my server...
Here's the map : http://ks369008.kimsufi.com/cod5/usermaps/mp_panzerfact/

Thanks.
