It's not so much an unsupported gametype, it's most likely an unclean iwd.
Somehow cod doesn't really like map-.iwd's with a lot of junk in it.<br>
Open the map-iwd's with winzip or winrar and check the contents. They should
only contains an images and a sounds folder (not required). Toss anything else
out and try again.<br>
To make the search harder, the map that's looping in download is (probably) NOT
a problem!!! It's the map that was running before it that's unclean!!<br>
Problem is the UNloading of the junk, not the actual loading.<br>
<br>
Hope that helps you find the problem. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Try to download map files directly within your web browser,
if http cannot be reached that way, don't go further.<br>
<br>
If it works, be sure to double check the map name (try to open the iwd part of
the map, and see the right name in the mp folder), on the redirect space, on
the game server, and in your config file.<br>
<br>
You can also try the map without a mod (your're running in fs_game, but no
mod.ff or iwd file is going to make any trouble with map scripts).<br>
<br>
Can we have any indication on the base of your mod and the map that's blocking
everything ? As Stuart has proposed, maybe the map is not compatible with the
mod or gametype...<br>

Yea all the redirect stuff is set up right.<br>
<br>
Everything works in that aspect.<br>
<br>
The only issue is the server gets stuck and wont
actually<br>
Load the map – It will sit in a loop with a
checkered<br>
background for all clients trying to connect.<br>
<br>
I am not sure how changing the map name will work?<br>

Do have a http redirect setup? if so have you make
sure both<br>
the server and the redirect have the same files on ?<br>
<br>
<br>
sounds like its missing a file off the a redirect or<br>
something if I remember right<br>

Hey guys,<br>
<br>
I run a series of servers and have
come to an issue I<br>
just cant seem to figure out.<br>
<br>
First and foremost let me say this has
all been working<br>
fine until just recently.<br>
<br>
We installed a Custom MOD and have
been running some<br>
custom Maps. Everything has been going
fine until<br>
recently I added a few more maps and
adjusted the map<br>
rotation.<br>
<br>
Well this is no different or sounds no
different then<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class=MsoNormal> what anyone else
would do. However after about the 3^rd <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><br>
map load give or take. The server gets
stuck. It<br>
constantly makes you try to download
the map… Even if the<br>
map has already been downloaded.
You will get the little<br>
checker box style load screen and the
map will just<br>
consistently try to load itself.<br>
<br>
If any of you care to check it out the
IP is<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal> <a

<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><br>
<br>
You will see that map is stuck in
rotation or something.<br>
<br>
Now again you might say try removing
the maps you put in…<br>
Well – I already did that..
Still no dice.<br>
Not really sure what to say in regards
to this so I was<br>
hoping some of you might have an idea.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
