Custom maps ... for future reference

Can all the maps be selected through Rcon?
 

Yes.

It started off quite well with the first 2 maps, but after that no one apart from me can join, it seems to keep looping the download, and it looks like it's stuck on .iwd file rather than the ff, any idea's :g:

I tested all but three of the maps with SJ earlier.  What map is causing the problem? as some forum posts suggest that some maps need to have the .iwd files stored in the mod folder as well as (or instead of) the usermap folder.

[Snokio]

all the maps it seems, even ones that were previously working, looked it up a little, does seem to be iwd related
 
edit: One thing i did do when i first tried map testing was put them in my 'main' folder and renamed them e.g. iw_16.iwd, i'll try one that i have not done and see if that works

Just downloaded that map manually, first time i have seen nuke, and still works fine for me.
 
The only thing that I think we did differently was to change map manually, long shot, but could it of been me changing the map via console that screwed something ('/rcon map mp_dust2_classic' for example)

It shouldn't have been a problem as I was using HLSW earlier to change the maps and we didn't have any issues (with just 2 people on).  I wonder if it's to do with the number of people who were trying to download all at the same time. I'll look into it a bit more when I have some time.

As long as most of them are in the dark. :eyebrow:
