start map "singleplayer" via console


(eitsch0r) #1

Hi there,

is it possible to load up a map via console? If this is already talked about … what do you put into search to find the threads? I tried and found out about map issues, essays about behavior of console players and more … just nothing about how to start a map via console cmd for example.

TIA

shame you cant select your mercs for it, as i often want to check something merc-specific.

You can, I have seen people do it on streams. I don’t know the commands though.

hi guys,

//edit1 says i am onto something
steamapps\common\Dirty Bomb\ShooterGame\CookedPC\Maps is propably all i need. Although i must say that the namings seem rather - in german you would say - “knitted with a hot needle” :slight_smile: IIRC “Canal” was the name originally given to Overground … and now Market is Canal, hehe.

a) could you maybe initiate me into the steps i need to perform to find out what “Levelnames” are available to me when calling /switchLevel? Where/how to poke into the installation base?

I ask because i naively tried it with /switchlevel EXE_Market which resulted in my firewall curiously asking me if the crashreporter might just this time be allowed to communicate with SD hive :smiley:

b) would you by chance maybe happen to know what the correct name of Market would be? Also i’d suppose that Dome is no longer “Map 6”?
//edit1: Dome is now named OBJ_Dome
