Sorry for all the questions... a bit lost here I'd like to be able to run all maps available at the moment... incuding custom maps. Which mod to install please and how do I get the maps on our server?
Ok you had to create to folders on your server one called Mods and Usermaps (i did this for you)
To add a custom map to your server:
1. Make a folder name is usermaps called mp_mapname for example and upload the .ff and the .iwd files inside this folder.
2. Create a redirect space and folder on some web space. An example: Clicky Me Create in this folder 2 additional folders.. mods and usermaps. Create an additional folder inside the mods folder called mymod. Copy the folder that contain the .ff and .iwd files into the the usermaps folder (mp_kalsville is folder name and has .ff files and .iwd inside with same name)
3. Edit this into your config file.
Add/change the redirect info in this server.cfg file i.e.:
// HTTP Redirect/Downloads (0=off/1=on) Used for MODs and custom maps set sv_allowdownload "1" seta sv_wwwDownload "1" seta sv_wwwBaseURL "http://www.myspace.com/cod5maps" seta sv_wwwDlDisconnected "0"
also set your map rotation like this example so that your game will startup on the custom map: set sv_mapRotation "gametype CTF map mp_mapname"
4. Create a new cmd line
+set fs_game mods/mymod
5. Restart server and you're map will load and download.
You don't have to upload the maps to a web space but if you want it to download from the server i think it's capped at 12 kb/s and if its hosted it will go a lot faster.
