VE_Corran Posted April 28, 2002 Share Posted April 28, 2002 I was wondering how I would go about adding my own maps to the menu on the 'Create Server' page. If any one can help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autero Posted April 28, 2002 Share Posted April 28, 2002 this is just an idea, but would putting a preview pic like the icon file for a model work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VE_Corran Posted April 28, 2002 Author Share Posted April 28, 2002 OK, i've worked out what has to be in the file but I still don't know where the .arena file has to be placed. Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[LoRD]RaoulHooD Posted April 29, 2002 Share Posted April 29, 2002 You have to put it in a folder called scripts under gamedata\base... Personally I got this to work just fine, but nobody can join my game when I run the map... they can load it fine by themselves, but noone can join them either... if you get it to work let me know!

[LoRD]RaoulHooD Posted April 29, 2002 Share Posted April 29, 2002 Ok once you place your .arena file in the right place it will work, however, if you want to be able to play it multiplayer you HAVE to make your .PK3 file... same goes for music, shaders, custom textures, etc... It took me 3 hours, but I finally got it, and of course it was the simplest answer.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DNACowboy Posted April 29, 2002 Share Posted April 29, 2002 does autodownload work for these new maps/textures/etc.. i know autodownload doesn't work for skins ( like they said it would).. just wondering if it works for skins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[LoRD]RaoulHooD Posted April 30, 2002 Share Posted April 30, 2002 No problem. Just to update, you don't absolutely have to make a pk3, you can type sv_pure 0 in the console and it will work too.... . Yes it works for maps, etc.. as long as they are in pk3 format it seems to auto download fine. .... but not skins.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UniKorn Posted April 30, 2002 Share Posted April 30, 2002 When you have a final version of your map, put it in a pk3. There is NO server on the internet that will run on sv_pure 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[LoRD]RaoulHooD Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 Good point Unikorn, I just have found it easier for while I'm testing my map just so I don't have to zip everything up every time I want to check some minor thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
