So I haven't mapped in a while but recently came across an .iwd for one of my older maps for cod2. So i popped it into the main folder and for some reason cod doesn't see it? I get an error saying "can't find mp_mapname.d3bsp in the maps/mp folder", but other custom maps work. I have everything in the .iwd including loadscreens, gsc's, .arena, csv's, everything but for some reason it won't show. Just to be clear I typed in /map mp_mymapname into the console. Any ideas?

Can you do a checklist of the way(s) you have tested this? name of the .iwd file, name of the map, name of the .d3dbsp file, how you have tried and run the server (dedicated or not), the position of the specific .iwd file in the call of the log from the server, etc .... Tam

Are you sure the folder structure inside the .iwd file is correct? .d3dbsp file in the /maps/mp folder etc..

Can you even see the map in the regular non-dedicated graphical interface for launching a new server (well launch from in-game)? You have all the files to have it running, there is something else preventing the game from fniding the map. Can you try, if you haven't done so, to take all the foreign .iwd from the main apart from your map? Honestly, there is a million small things that can go wrong .... maybe a mismatch in the map's name between the arena file and the name of the .d3dbsp file? I have just tried at the moment with a custom map of mine and when calling the command: Code: /map mp_in the console you should see a list of the available maps. try to repack the whole map files... :/ Tam edited on Sep. 2, 2008 07:12 am by tourist.Tam

I re-packed the map and now it shows up when I use, Code: /map mp_ but, I am getting a syntax error in the console, how do I copy and paste whats in the console to show here to see what the errors are? Thanks

I am not quite sure but the error could be logged in the following file: Code: ./main/console_mp.log Tam
