Hi this is probably peace of cake for you guys

I've put a new map on my server in etmain named mml_helmsdeep_fp.pk3
but it doesn't show up in the maplist...

I can run the map by typing it into console but how do I get it in the maplist?

thx

Single maps show only up when game type is Stopwatch or Single Map Objective (or LMS). For Campaign game type you have to create a campaign file.

yes off course...

but it doesn't show the map... maybe the name is too long?

maybe it is lacking an arena file.

You need all of the versions that came out for HelmsDeep.

mml_helmsdeep_fp
mml_helmsdeep_a3
mml_helmsdeep_a3_sp1
mml_helmsdeep_a3_sp1b

Had this problem before with a Campaign.

ok, got 1st campaign:

Code: Select all

&#123;
	name			"^1Standardowe"
	shortname		"cmpgn_s_mapy_ok"
	description		"1. Oasis*2. Fueldump*3. Battery*4. Railgun*5. Radar*6. Goldrush"
	maps			"oasis;fueldump;battery;railgun;radar;goldrush"
	mapTC			374 374
	type			"wolfmp"
&#125;

and 2nd campaign:

Code: Select all

&#123;
	name			"^1Niestandardowe"
	shortname		"cmpgn_nies_mapy_ok"
	description		"1. Caen*2. Supply Depot 2*3. TC Base*4. Desert Temple*5. Venice *6. Dubrovnik"
	maps			"caen;supplydepot2;tc_base;temple_final;venice;dubrovnik_final"
	mapTC			374 374
	type			"wolfmp"
&#125;

rotation.cfg:

Code: Select all

// WATCHDOG
set com_watchdog_cmd "vstr d_initial ; say watchdog found no map running - restarted mapcycle"

set d1 "shuffleteamsxp_norestart ; campaign cmpgn_s_mapy_ok ; set nextcampaign vstr d2"
set d2 "shuffleteamsxp_norestart ; campaign cmpgn_nies_mapy_ok ; set nextcampaign vstr d1"

set d_initial "set g_gametype 4 ; map oasis ; set nextcampaign vstr d2"
vstr d_initial

and why cant i use any of the command such: nextmap, listmap etc.

is it a way to do this in campaign mode?

Probably overkill to mention but you actually need to have helmsdeep installed on your pc as well before it shows up.

afaik, you have to have mml_helmsdeep_fp in the campaign file for it to work, you don't have it in either campaign

Luk4ward · Post by **Luk4ward** » Mon Oct 30, 2006 5:42 am

erm, i think u r joking...why putting some map called: mml_helmsdeep_fp in the campaign file will sort the problem with nextmap or maplist in campaigne mod? can any1 explain me that or help?

nextmap calls the next map, which is, while in cmpgn mode, the next cmpgn.
So don't use in while in cmpgn mode.

If you want to skip a map decrease the timelimit.

regarding the maplist thing: there are 2 many reasons which have been mentioned but you did not give further information to rule something out.

- You need all the files on your server
- You need all the files on your client
- The file/s is/are lacking the *.arena file
- Maps are not shown while in cmpgn mode

Allies surrender is a good way to skip in a campaign... right?

Luk4ward · Post by **Luk4ward** » Tue Oct 31, 2006 4:26 am

thats the only way lol..

thx for the relpies, thought it is some way....
i set 2 campaigns with b campaignfile, so the button nextmap is now changed to next campaign...i think in the further i would try with stopwatch but not in the usual way

. i mean the campaign style wont be changed so much and nextmap option will be available

This is not possible, except you have them in one campaignfile, though it does not sound like you have it that way.

erm, sorry i had to hurry, i created 2 campaigns in one campaign file so that i could use b_campaignfile, and i would recommend all to do this in such way. It doesnt help with nextmap, but at least ppl can see in vote section: nextcampaign instead of nextmap so that they wont be moaning about changing to the nextmap. Hope now its cleared:P
