Re: custom maps

Post by ZacharyS »

Hey there 56ketchup - firstly are you running the "Openwarfare" mod - OR is it the "Openwarfare 2" mod?

I don't really have much experience with the origianl Openwarfare mod but I know for a fact that the OW2 mod requires you to put the maps into a separate config file and NOT in the main config file. Look for a file called "mapcontrol.cfg" somewhere in your config files. It's usually in a folder called "configs/servers".

Also AND THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT change your rcon password IMMEDIATELY because you've posted it above :wink:

If you don't need to use the separate "mapcontrol.cfg" file then I notice that in your post you haven't actually removed the "//" before any of the map rotations, so the server will just continue loading the default map/gametype I think (can't be sure because I've never had a maprotation problem). You've told the game to choose a default gametype of "sd" but then you haven't un-commented one of the following lines. Make sure you remove the "//" before your chosen map rotation and then restart the server - the rotation should then follow the gametype and rotation that you want.

To clarify at least one of the lines starting with
"//set sv_mapRotation blah blah "


Needs the "//" at the start of the line removed,otherwise the gametype/rotation you want won't work and don't forget to restart the server will you :wink: :lol: .

BUT the first thing to check is whether or not you need to be editing the other config file I mentioned at the start.

Wow so many "'s :lol:

Hope that helps. (Don't forget to remove any passwords from configs before you post them ;) )

Peace.

Zac. :D

Yes if it's OpenWarfare 2 then the maps should go in the mapcontrol.cfg file not the normal server.cfg or whatever you called it (you did change the name right? - it's always a good idea to do that).

Hope it works :)

Peace.

Zac. :D
