Mod maps not showing in Dedicated Server
Posted: Sat Nov 07, 2009 2:01 am
Again a weird problem thingie I have...
I have created a new mod (minimod for Battlegroup42) and now have the problem that its maps (which basically only are patchfiles, changing the MapID, some might remember it from the thread where I asked about batch renaming) do show up in the ingame "set up LAN-server" and singleplayer screen without problem, but do not show in the dedicated server or any server tool. I can select them allright for the battlegroup42 mod, but not for my BG42_WGP mod...only the vanilla maps do show up in the Server tool when I choose the BG42_WGP mod...but not even the "custom" Vanilla maps, like the ones included in the EA Mappack (faidpass, rommel, greatpursuit etc.). Wtf went wrong?

. I think the problem lies somehow within the level files itself. If I copy a full map and then only change the MapID in it, it works. For some obscure reason it just doesn't read these map patchfiles...the big question is why not?
