Darth Link Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 Arena Files: If you are making a MP map, you will now need to create an arena script. An arena script is what tells Jedi Knight 2 where to place your map when they look at their list of maps in the game (at the Create Server screen). Create a blank text file and name it yourmap.arena (replacing yourmap with the name of your map, of course). Then copy the following template: { map "ffa_map" longname "Map Name" type "ctf cty duel ffa holocron jedimaster team" } For the map field, put the actul name of your map (i.e. ffa_yourmap). For the longname field, put the text you want to appear in the map list. Be warned, only 25 characters (give or take 5) will fit in the server list without being truncated (cut off). For type, leave whichever gametypes you want and delete the rest. (CTY is Capture the Ysalamiri and FFA is Free for All (Deathmatch) if it didn't seem obvious). from, rich deisals mapping university Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny-Rico Posted December 23, 2002 Author Share Posted December 23, 2002 i got it know but how to do so the text will change to the arena i did like mymap.arena and its still stays text file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt-Liell Posted December 23, 2002 Share Posted December 23, 2002 get an existing .arena file, edit it in notepad and save it. dont do save as something else, save it under its existing name then rename the file and it will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leslie Judge Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 Or you can turn off that extension hiding Windows feature in the Folder Options of your Windows Explorer's Tools Menu. Then you will be able to change the .txt extension to .arena. In long term it is better turned off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
