1st: what is the etpro map ?
2nd: after uploading you have to at least load another map or restart the server otherwise it won't recognise and will not open the pk3.

what do you mean with etpro map..?
yes I changed the map it even downloads the pk3 from the server when I connect..
normally al settings should be correct..
I have uploaded the .pk3 in the etpro directory..
still nothing to see after changing map

check the other b_watermark cvars on your server/client
do a
/rcon cvarlist b_wa
to see them all
maybe you have b_watermarkalpha on your client set to 0 so it is invisible.
do you see watermarks on other servers ?

the settings on server are:
b_watermarkFadeTime "1.5"
b_watermarkFadeAfter "-1"
b_watermark"\ 13th/13th\"
on client:
b_watermarkAlpha "1"
b_watermark "1"
b_watermarkFadeTime "1.5"
b_watermarkFadeAfter "-1"
correct wright??
and yes I see other watermarks on other server

Thanks, got it working now.
I have one question though:
How i can force ppl to download watermark?
Since if they have cl_allowdownload set to "0" they just connect to server without downloading my watermark.
I want them not to be able to connect unless they download my watermark
I have the watermark-mywatermar.pk3 file in my sv_referencedPakNames but clients still r not forced to download?

is your server set to "pure" ?

Yes, it is set to pure.

how do you know that they havent downloaded it? If they dont see it, it may be because they have their cvars to see the watermark off.

If cl_allowdownload is set to 1 then it will download it and it will show properly.
Then i tryed setting cl_allowdownload to 0
and deleted the watermark file from my etpro folder.
ofcourse It didn't download the file, but it connected to the server and watermark was not shown. Thats pretty obvious.
What i want is the server to show missing watermar-xxxxx.pk3 and disconnect if someone tryes to connect with cl_allowdownload 0, like it is set on many other servers.

If your server is set to pure and they are on your server, then yes, they downloaded it. If they say that they dont see it then they have one or all of the following cvars set to a value that prevents them from seeing the watermark. The following values on these will stop a watermark from showing.
b_watermarkAlpha "0"
b_watermark "0"
b_watermarkFadeTime "0"
b_watermarkFadeAfter "0"
PS. if these values are set then you might have zipped the file incorrectly. Remember that you have to use the correct zip program. For some reason the, popular brand doesnt zip the way pk3's need them to be zipped. This happened to me. Read prior posts on this thread.
