[mohaa] rotations, downloads & etc

[Damon]

Lo.
I havnt done any extractions. everything is default. additional maps ( pak
files ) i have in /mohaa/main
and load them in the usual way. as long as the map you want to load is in
the servers rota, it will allow
you to load RB (RoundBased) maps into an objective gametype. havnt tried
loading OBJ ( OBJective ) maps
into a RB gametype as i had no need.
if the map is not in the rota you get error 'cannot load rb map into a obj
gametype' or something similar.
Damon

hope this is what u meant!

Are you saying you dont need to extract the pack files like previously
stated into a maps dir? Also what is an RB?

Lo.
I made our rotor like this.
seta sv_maplist "obj/obj_team1 obj/obj_team2 obj/obj_team4 dm/mohdm1
dm/mohdm2 dm/mohdm3 dm/mohdm5 dm/mohdm6 dm/mohdm7 obj/Prado1_Obj"
map obj/obj_team1

The gametype is objective and will run all rb maps ok. if the maps are in
the rota you can load a rb map into a obj gametype via console as normal.

in replace of the gmotd i put a localization.txt file into the
/mohaa/global
dir. in there are all the death messages etc. if you change any then only
change the ones on the righthandside.
you can change the enter text to what u like, our is
{ "Press fire to join the battle!" "Welcome - CUSTOM MAPS @ www.c4clan.com
-
Press fire" }
ive attatched the demo .txt file.

the advert mod you are looking for.. ( i think ) is called Admin mod. you
can see it in action on a [UK2] server somewhere.. ( can be very annoying )

i hope some of this jargon is usefull to u

Other than hacking up the pk3 files, has anyone been successful with
multiple game type map rotations?

Also, getting sv_allowdownload to work?  I know this isn't an ideal way to
get maps, but for those of us who want to run custom maps, its almost a
must.

Plus not having the ability to use g_motd makes it hard to pass the word
about custom map packs.

One last question, has anyone seen a bot, supposedly running from a linux
server, that just advertises in the game, something to replace motd, plus
put a timed message out to everyone via the in-game chat?  I'm sure this
can
be scripted from the console via tcl or something similar, just looking for
something already coded (why recreate the wheel :)

thanks!
