set d1 "campaign cmpgn_10maps ; set nextcampaign vstr d1"
set d2 "campaign cmpgn_complete ; set nextcampaign vstr d2"

// server doesn't recognise the campaign command when the gamecode isn't running yet.
set d_initial "set g_gametype 4 ; map battery ; set nextcampaign vstr d1"
vstr d_initial
vstr d1

d2 isnt really used but i let it in for reference.
the campaign cycle works.
but sometimes it changes to sw.
are you at #etpro@freenode?

edit:
10maps.campaign
{

shortname "cmpgn_10maps"

So have a fight in North Africa, the Atlantic coastline and in Germany **The Allies have much work to do before they can hope to mount a successful invasion attempt and must gain expertise in both beach and parachute landings.

do you have a campaign file specified?

ie b_campaignfile "scripts/10maps.campaign"

etpro/etpro.cfg
[..]
// b_campaignfile - allow specification of a specific campaign file instead
// of having the server scan for them all, thereby referencing every
// pk3 containing a campaign file.
// default: ""
set b_campaignfile ""
[..]

i created a pk3 cmpgn file for this reason which includes my 10maps cmpgn file.

deus told me to try without
vstr d1

If this happens on my server, it's because I either mis-typed the map.bsp name in the campaign cycle, or, I forgot to upload the map that I correctly typed in.

It's switching from Camp to SW cause it doesn't know what else to do. It can't go forward to the next specified map, so it just runs the same one over and over in SW. It's actually kind of a smart fail safe, better than the server just crashing, lol.

v2_base perhaps?

mike · Post by **mike** » Fri Jul 08, 2005 9:03 am

v2_base is my last map of my campaign.

normally the campaign runs round.

thats why iam confused!

sw happens only sometimes.
especially in the last days.

can there be a bug/exploit/vote?
or the very very large logfile? (i start from zero today maybe this will help)

Just had the same thing happening...
Whoops.. I changed the campaign shortname in the pk3 but forgot to change it in the .cfg files as well...

Fueldump-spring is a texture addon, not a complete map. Just put Spring.pk3 in the etpro dir and load fueldump as you would normally do.
