cant test my map

[SkN]

how come when i try to test my map, it says:

 

cannot find map maps/zio.bsp

 

But when I look in the gamedata/base/maps there is a zio.bsp

if you want, you could send me the .map file so I can compile it and see if I get the same thing... dmccarthy100@charter.net

thats wierd... were you running in a mod at the time?

[SkN]

I wasn't using a mod, and im pretty sure that my map is in gamedata/base/maps but it couldn't find the map.

[SkN]

Its a simple map for mp............and I'm guessing you can't test mp maps?!!??!!?

[Andy867]

Yes, you can test ANY map, so long as its in the MAP folder.

 

What exactly are you typing in... are you typing in devmap zio or map zio?

 

and are you adding the .bsp at the end or just calling it zio?

[SkN]

I loaded up jkmp then created my server, then i went into console and typed devmap zio but it says cannot find map maps/zio.bsp then i tried devmap zio.bsp and it says cannot find map maps/zio.bsp.bsp and i did the same thing with map zio and it still cant find it.

where do you have JKRadiant installed, is it in the default Gamedata folder?

[SkN]

yea jk radiant is installed in gamedata/Tools

hm...that happens to me.heres what ya do.when your still in the menu with the two spinny JO symbols type devmap zio in the console.NEVER START A MAP THEN TRY TO LOAD ANOTHER MAP BY USING DEVMAP OR MAP IF YOUR MAP IS IN YOUR MAPS FOLDER. i have no answer as to why it does this.but try it it works

[SkN]

Thats...what I did, so is that why it doesn't load?!?!

 

Then how do i load my map without loading another map?!?

[SkN]

I did what you told me to do and well I was happy to see "
