Hello, i am very grateful for the mod. It helps me with every basic gamemodes. But sadly i have a server in a .bat file and for some reason maps like CTF4 and MultiteamCTF and it does not work even if i added the packages of the mod.
New game types are not automatically detected.
You need to edit MVE_Config and define the new gametypes.
The easiest way is to copy paste an existing one and edit it.
Code: Select all
CustomGame[4]=(bEnabled=True,GameName="Capture the Flag",RuleName="InstaGib",GameClass="Botpack.CTFGame",FilterCode="ctf",bHasRandom=True,VotePriority=1.000000,MutatorList="Botpack.InstaGibDM",Settings="",Packages="",TickRate=0,ServerActors="")
This is instagib CTF example from the release.
To set up a different gametype you need to set the correct GameClass.
For CTF4 this could be GameClass="CTF4.CTF4Game" but depends on which CTF4 you're using
Here is the modified gametype below
Code: Select all
CustomGame[4]=(bEnabled=True,GameName="Capture the Flag",RuleName="InstaGib",GameClass="CTF4.CTF4Game",FilterCode="ctf",bHasRandom=True,VotePriority=1.000000,MutatorList="Botpack.InstaGibDM",Settings="",Packages="",TickRate=0,ServerActors="")
Now that you made a change in the config file, you need to reload the map list otherwise your new game-type will not show up.

And this command "mutate bdbmapvote reload" says i can not use it for some reason.
Is there something i can do? Thanks!
To run it you need to be logged in as admin.
It's a good idea to keybind these using the in game console:
Code: Select all
set input f9 adminlogin yoursecretpassword
set input f10 mutate bdbmapvote reload
With keybinding you can run these command just by pressing f9 and then f10
Alternatively a reload can be triggered from the config file MVE_Config if you set
This is useful so that you can reload the map list without entering the game, just by restarting the server.
After reload this flag is turned off automatically, if you want something more permanent:
This is useful if you're making a lot of changes.
BUT: while map list reload is running the server will LAG out, you don't want this to be permanently enabled.
It's meant only to make setting things up easier in the beginning.
To get the most out of this mapvote, you'll need to familiarize yourself with MVE_Config.ini
Out of the box you get an example with all classic gametypes and mutators, as a way of showing off what it can do and to get you quickly started.
But it's meant to be customized to your needs.
Always make small changes and test it.
Once you got a good config, make a backup of it.
Hope this helps! Good luck!
