Title: How do I use a map Post by: aethr on February 08, 2009, 11:56:10 AM Hi all
got several textures, an .aas and a .bsp of a map. I wanna install and use the map, host a server. How do I go about that? Tried putting it into ~/.openarena/maps, pk3'd or not, to no avail. (the map is my old fave void4 from attic) Thanks Stefan Title: Re: How do I use a map Post by: Neon_Knight on February 08, 2009, 11:59:59 AM If you use pure server, you should pack the files in this way...
- maps/*.aas and *.bsp - textures/<FolderTexturesAndFilesInsideOfThem> ...into a Zip, and then rename it into a pk3. You should set sv_allowdownload in 1 and hope the one who enters to your server has the pak or has cl_allowdownload 1. Title: Re: How do I use a map Post by: aethr on February 08, 2009, 12:45:24 PM ok tnx that worked. Created a void4 server and set sv_allowdownload but no one joined. I don't think the master server registered me. While the game was running, http://dpmaster.deathmask.net/?game=openarena didn't list my IP or mapname.
what could have gone wrong? i have a real ip address, oa 0.8.1 Also, no, I don't think I use "pure server", I just clicked "create game" in OA Title: Re: How do I use a map Post by: Neon_Knight on February 08, 2009, 04:36:15 PM If you see down to the right in the bot screen before launching the server, you'll see a bunch of options, one of these is Pure server, and is enabled by default.

EDIT: About void4. I one took it from the attic and fixed textures on it. It is here: http://openarena.ws/board/index.php?topic=1635.0 |
