Map not loading on ETpub

(=SC=Beef) #1

my map will not play on a etpub server. but it will happily play etmain.

I have script_multiplayer which points to game_manager
Axis spawn
Allied Spawn
Deathmatch Spawn
Intermission thingy
Map .script
.arena file
levelshots.shader file
.bsp file
.objdata file
command map file
map image file

I have all i need, but when i select it as a map, the console (dedi server) seizes up and does not respond. like i said. works in etmain.

checking out the server.log it shows no error…why? because the map doesnt even load.

but the actual console thing stops at “Enable Spawning!”

Maybe too many pk3 files in etmain of the server?

default 4 and this 1 map

you have many posts on the etpub forums about using a 3rd party windows compile of the etpub nightly build. I use the dev teams linux nightly build. So i am not knocking this. But it is for beta testing and is not stable. Have you tried your map with the public release version?

Indeed you pose a good point. I made a new install and patched with etpub 6.5.
Again, no luck.
this is a small fun map some one requested, but if i cant even get this working i have no hope for my future maps.

This is a link to my pk3, included is the source.

Help is greatly appreciated.

Does this map load at all?

I’m at work right now so i can’t load it into radiant, but I browsed the included map file in a text editor and a few things look out of place.

There are some wierd tags in your entity definitions:

{
"classname" "team_CTF_bluespawn"
"mapcoordsmins" "2600 -2600"
"mapcoordsmaxs" "2600 -2600"
"_ambient;ambient" "15"
"ambient" "15"
"origin" "-1162 -823 32"
}
  1. The ambient and _ambient tags do not belong there, neither do the mapcoords tags - every entity in the map has them.
  2. None of the spawnspoints are enabled.
  3. There are no “set autospawn” entries in the map script.

As he said it works in etmain

I’ve tested it in etpub 0.5.3 and etpro 3.2.5 and both of them stops at the Enable Spawning log entry.

Well, i have removed the crap from entities, and will review some spawn tutorials later.
The link is updated

Try setting your spawnpoints to “startactive”

the map coords are off too - they should be:

"mapcoordsmins" "-2600 2600"
"mapcoordsmaxs" "2600 -2600"

I also sent you a pm about it.
