mapcycle

[staRsky]

hi all,
can anyone explain a bit how to use the mapcycle?
i changed the mapcycle the way i want on my server, but there is always the same map :/
im new to source servers so any help would be appreciated
like where do i have to put the files?
do i have to write something into server.cfg to make it work?
well i hope someone can help

Your mapcycle.txt file should be located inside your cstrike folder. Here is an example of what mine looks like:

Code:

cs_italy
de_dust
de_aztec
de_cbble
cs_office
de_chateau
de_dust2
de_piranesi
cs_havana
de_prodigy

thx for your help.
thats exactly the way i have it oO
but still always the same map :/
and i really dont have to kind of activate the mapcycle with a command in the server.cfg or something?

set a timelimit for each map, and it will change


// TIME, WIN & ROUND SETTINGS
// Timelimit is how many minutes for a map.
mp_timelimit 45
// When a team reaches this amount of wins (before the timelimit or the roundlimit is
// reached), it has won the map. 0=disabled
mp_winlimit 14
// When two teams finish playing this amount of rounds (before the timelimit or the
// winlimit is reached) the map ends. 0=disabled
mp_maxrounds 21
// Round time, in minutes. After this amount of minutes has passed,
// a scenario win is awarded. Min 1, Max 9
mp_roundtime 3

I too have the same problem as the original thread starter but don't follow your advice. Is this what my .txt file should look like? Where do I set a time limit on?

Should it read so:

Code:

cs_italy//mp_timelimit 45

???

Here is what my map.txt file looks like now.

cs_italy
de_aztec
de_cbble
cs_office
de_dust2
de_chateau
de_prodigy
de_dust

What should it look like if I want the map cycle time 45 minutes, round time default, wins disabled?

CarlosWill: You seem to be a little confused about the mp_timelimit variable. You cannot set it on a per-map basis. All of these variables are set in the cstrike/cfg/server.cfg file and apply to all maps in the cstrike/mapcycle.txt file.

If you want \ALL\ maps in your map cycle to have 45 minute timelimit, default round time and wins disabled, then set the following in your server.cfg:

mp_timelimit 45
mp_roundtime 3
mp_winlimit 0
mp_maxrounds 0

Hope this clears up the confusion.
