Title: Where do I put the maps? Post by: All on May 05, 2010, 05:16:53 AM What is the exact location where to put the maps? Thanks
Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: HITMAN on May 05, 2010, 05:18:45 AM what operating system do you have?
Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: All on May 05, 2010, 06:02:52 AM Ubuntu 9.10
Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: Udi on May 05, 2010, 06:35:28 AM ~/.openarena/baseoa (you may need to show hidden files in your file manager)
If the maps are neatly packed in .pk3 that will do it. If you only have .bsp files then create a 'maps' folder inside that. Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: All on May 05, 2010, 07:59:13 AM No luck.
Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: Cacatoes on May 05, 2010, 07:12:31 PM Well, give us a few explanations.
What is the whole path and name of the map you copied ? /home/cacatoes/.openarena/baseoa/am_lavactf-b1.pk3 is a valid path (for me). You can check which .pk3 file is read when you start the game from your console output, bring it down, and check which pk3 it finds. Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: All on May 06, 2010, 01:21:04 PM /home/openarena/baseoa/islandctf4a2.pk3
Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: Cacatoes on May 06, 2010, 04:16:16 PM BEEEEP, wrong answer.
Do you understand the directory hierarchy of Linux systems ? /home/user1/ /home/user2/ /home/user... /home/user1/music /home/user1/porn /home/user1/.config <= this is a hidden directory, it starts with a "." /home/user1/.openarena <= this one is interesting /home/user1/.openarena/baseoa <= this one even more interesting Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: All on May 09, 2010, 06:06:07 AM /home/user1/.openarena/baseoa/...pk3
Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: Cacatoes on May 09, 2010, 07:27:10 AM Yes, can you check this pk3 is read by the game when it starts itself ?
You can do that by opening the console (shift+esc) and read the log. If yes, then check the map is available with (in the console): Code: dir maps Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: All on May 09, 2010, 11:11:42 AM alejandro@Alejandro:~$ dir maps
dir: no se puede acceder a maps: No existe el fichero รณ directorio Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: Cacatoes on May 10, 2010, 05:23:51 AM Precision: you have to type that within the game console, not with your Linux terminal.
Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: All on May 10, 2010, 07:00:56 AM How do I access to the game console?
Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: MIOW on May 10, 2010, 07:09:36 AM You can replace /home/username/ with ~ to get into the directory for current user:
~/.openarena Game console you usually can access with ~ key or Shift+Esc as Cacatoes already told Title: Re: Where do I put the maps? Post by: Gig on May 10, 2010, 11:08:21 AM See also:
