Mapcycle won't work :(

[c-d0g]

Ok, sorry for my bad english, it's a little bit hard for me ...

My server config:

set rconpassword "******"
set sv_hostname "^1-=} ^2c-d0g's s&d + re ^1{=-"
//set g_password ""
set sv_pure "1"
set scr_motd "www.c-dog.de / #streitaxt @q-net"
set sv_maxclients "32"
set sv_privateclients "4"
set sv_privatepassword "******"
set scr_drawfriend "0"
set scr_forcerespawn "1"
set scr_friendlyfire "1"
set scr_allow_vote "1"

// behind enemy lines settings

set scr_dm_timelimit "20"

// maprotation
set sv_mapRotation "gametype sd map mp_carentan gametype re map mp_harbor gametype sd map mp_dawnville"

map_rotate

My shortcut: "D:\Call of Duty\CoDMP.exe" +set dedicated 1 +exec dedicated.cfg

The Problem:
The maprotation won't work !
I have testing some things like different timelimits or different entrys in my dedicated.cfg, but nothing will solve the problem.
I have no idea whats wrong ....
The server is configured for lan and running on win2k with sp3 and dx 9.0b
I start the server, connect with my second pc to the game and do nothing ...

Whats wrong or have anyone a idea for me ?

[AADiC]

Dedicated should be 2 for internet.

and here is my TDM map cfg
sv_maprotationcurrent ""

set g_gametype "tdm" //gametype: bel, dm, re, sd, tdm

set sv_mapRotation "gametype tdm map mp_brecourt gametype tdm map mp_carentan gametype tdm map mp_chateau gametype tdm map mp_dawnville gametype tdm map mp_depot gametype tdm map mp_harbor gametype tdm map mp_hurtgen gametype tdm map mp_pavlov gametype tdm map mp_powcamp gametype tdm map mp_railyard gametype tdm map mp_rocket"

map_rotate

[c-d0g]

my server is for lan.
and my maprotation is simply shorter as your one.

[imported_MaD-Ogre]

So what actually happens when you hit one of the SD limits?

[c-d0g]

unfortunately nothing :(

[AADiC]

Ok, sorry for my bad english, it's a little bit hard for me ...

// maprotation
set sv_mapRotation "gametype sd map mp_carentan gametype re map mp_harbor gametype sd map mp_dawnville"

map_rotate



Try putting sv_maprotationcurrent "" before your set sv_maprotation statement.

[imported_MaD-Ogre]

Never seen so many limits on SD before. Most places set just roundlength and either timelimit or roundlimit or scorelimit.

[c-d0g]

Try putting sv_maprotationcurrent "" before your set sv_maprotation statement.

ok, i try this !

edit 1: i trying this:

set sv_maprotationcurrent ""
and this
set sv_maprotationcurrent "map mp_brecourt"

both above sv_maprotation, nothing solve the problem, I m going crazy ... :x(


edit 2: hm ...

the server running only for testing on my little lan and I am the only player on the server.
on the next lanparty I will use this dedicated server.
the server say's not "Starting Match" because Im alone and have no enemy.
maybe, this is the problem !??
the server will not change the map caused no match has finished ??

i have many effective experiences since 1999 with dedicated game servers, q2 & mods, sof, q3, hl, cs, ect ....
i've never that kind of problems !

pls hlp me !

[imported_MaD-Ogre]

I doesn't matter how many people are in the server, the server will continue to run the maps (if you go in as a spectator, you should see the time running down). Since you have timelimit and roundlimit set, the server should rotate when it hits them. Try this:

1) Either through the server console or remotely with rcon, execute a map_rotate command and see if the map changes.

2) Execute a cvarlist command and scroll up and look at what sv_maprotation and sv_maprotationcurrent are set to.

[PYTHON]

I need help also where do i change to recycle maps??? do I have to make a folder?

[c-d0g]

1) Either through the server console or remotely with rcon, execute a map_rotate command and see if the map changes.

2) Execute a cvarlist command and scroll up and look at what sv_maprotation and sv_maprotationcurrent are set to.

dear ogre,

Im already trying this !
the cmd map_rotate works fine, the server change to another map caused by "map_rotate" and stick again ...
sv_maprotation are correctly set and displayed in console, sv_maprotationcurrent is empty ("" default)

[AADiC]

Ok, I used your config only changes

/ search and destroy settings
set scr_sd_graceperiod "20"
set scr_sd_roundlength "1"
set scr_sd_roundlimit "1"
set scr_sd_scorelimit "1"
set scr_sd_timelimit "1"

To make it go alittle faster, and it changed map as soon as I won mp_carentan it moved on to re mp_harbor.

PS I used same command line to start server.

[PYTHON]

Well I really like COD but they sure made this game complicated. Ive played DELTA FORCE 2 over 4 yrs and BLACKHAWK DOWN RTCW SOF2 and never had this much trouble hosting a game.What gives here im lost??????????????????????????? To host a server should be a whole lot more simple than this.Especially when this game cost over 50 bucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Need to see your CFG's: Server CFG and map cfg

[KoniG]

I am also having the problem with the maps not rotating in sd. They rotate fine if I setup a tdm maprotation and maps. But not in sd, it get stuck on the map, unless I set the timelimit manually using rcon.

This is my cfg for the sd section

// search and destroy settings
set scr_sd_graceperiod "15"
set scr_sd_roundlength "0"
set scr_sd_roundlimit "0"
set scr_sd_scorelimit "0"
set scr_sd_timelimit "18"

:dis:

[c-d0g]

Im glad to hear that I am not alone with this stupid bug.
hope the next patch will fix this !

[AADiC]

didn't you see my post, your cfg is fine try seting it up like i posted and see if it switchs

[c-d0g]

oh sorry, now i see your post ! ( I'm weary ...)
tomorrow after work i try this !

[PYTHON]

i would like to know where that stuff is i have no clue

[AADiC]

i would like to know where that stuff is i have no clue

Can you PM me your cfg files. They are in your COD/main file i dont know what the name of the cfg file is though.

I will check in tommorow.

@AADIC:

recently i try this:

seta scr_sd_graceperiod "20"
seta scr_sd_roundlength "1"
seta scr_sd_roundlimit "1"
seta scr_sd_scorelimit "1"
seta scr_sd_timelimit "1"

this works !

and try this:

seta scr_sd_graceperiod "20"
seta scr_sd_roundlength "2"
seta scr_sd_roundlimit "2"
seta scr_sd_scorelimit "2"
seta scr_sd_timelimit "2"

it works !

and i try this:

seta scr_sd_graceperiod "20"
seta scr_sd_roundlength "3"
seta scr_sd_roundlimit "3"
seta scr_sd_scorelimit "3"
seta scr_sd_timelimit "3"

works !

and last i try this:

seta scr_sd_graceperiod "10"
seta scr_sd_roundlength "4"
seta scr_sd_roundlimit "12"
seta scr_sd_scorelimit "12"
seta scr_sd_timelimit "48"

and this works not !


i run 12 x in the mines and the enemy hit the roundlimit, but the server will not change the map ...

i think this is a big fat bug !?!

[c-d0g]

good news !

I running my server this weekend at lan and all works very fine ! :lol:
