HELP! My friend's can't join my server with my custom map

[zakabog]

It’s really annoying, I spent like hours making this map but my friend can’t join the game when I"m hosting, well he can join but it just disconnects him. I gave him the map files too and put them in the right folders (or at least I think they’re right.) Was 3 files, I got the mapname.def stuff working so I see the map on my list and I can’t join his game when he hosts my map too. It’s really weird :-/

zakabog, you are running a pure server without pk4’s, only things in pk4’s are loaded within doom3 when connecting to a pure server. make a pk4 of all the files, maps, defs, materials, textures, gui’s, anything custom you made. Make sure you dont overwrite something inside one of the base pk4’s with something in yourmap’s pk4 (so if you just extracted something and edited it without renaming dont include those files), that would be bad for people who download your map.

Thanks! That worked perfectly, now the only problem is how do I let people download the map when I’m hosting?
