Title: How do I use maps not from OpenArena? Post by: vegito616 on February 01, 2007, 07:33:05 PM I have found some maps I would like to play from another website, though even after doing everything it said to in the FAQ i still could not get it to work. I put the pak3 files into the baseao and at the beginning it said that it loads it, but it does not appear in game. What am I doing wrong? What else do I have to do? I cannot even use maps that are meant for OpenArena made by users on this website

/map <mapname> then set it up anyway you like. for example FFA with 2 bots /g_gametype 0 /addbot sarge 2 /addbot gargoyle 2 /timelimit 5 /fraglimit 35 /map_restart (only really needed if your swapping out the game type) for g_gametype modes are as follows, running from memory here so please dont hold me to it exactly as written, and of course correct me if wrong :). 0 - FFA 2 - TDM 3 - 1v1 4 - CTF After that if you want to make various modes with map rotations then I'd suggest hit up the openarena wiki and create yourself a listen server config, then once ingame load said config with /exec filename to see everything you can do with console check this out http://quake2.ukrpack.net/FAQ/con_commands_q3.shtml most of these commands will work with openarena's engine. |
