Title: my maps
Post by: Noob Sauce on December 24, 2008, 01:56:29 PM
For some reason, not all of my maps show up when I go to make a game. Anyone have any ideas why they just aren't showing up? (I have a lot of maps, if there's like a max amount tell me and i'll try and work something out.

Also, should new maps go in the Application folder or the Application Support folder?

Same for me, in the list some custom maps show up and others don't. All work though with \map.

On my Win XP I put pk3 files into application data/openarena/baseoa/

\map? is that a command of some sort?

put "/map " in console, then press tab. (do not forget to put a space right after /map ;))
This will bring up a list of all your maps.

You then find one you like, and type "/map <mapname>" and hit enter.
you will now be loading up that map in an offline skirmish :)

If you are unsure how to bring up the console, you press the tilde key(~) it should be right beside the 1 key.
