    What do I do if the map's file doesn't have a .d3dbsp in it (for example, zombie_nuketown.ff)?

    McMoffett I didn't understand what you meant by that but for your example, you just type in /map zombie_nuketown
    and it has nothing to do with a .d3dbsp file you need the name that is written in the .ff file

      @Nice-XIX McMoffett custom map loading on BO1 seems to either have broke or have been removed in an update. I followed the method mentioned in the following link for trying to load custom maps, which is basically the same as what you’ve mentioned in your original post: https://plutonium.pw/docs/modding/loading-mods/#loading-mods--custom-zombies-maps-for-bo1
      However, I would receive the following error upon trying to start the custom map:

      Error
      Couldn't find the bsp for this map. Please build the fast file associated with maps/MAPNAME.d3dbsp and try again.

      This error is similar to the one shown in the following post, with the only difference being the map name: https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/22353/error-please-build-d3dbsp
      This error seems to generally be caused by missing the zone file for the map, as it also happens when trying to start one of the game’s maps without having the corresponding MAPNAME.ff file installed.

      I’ve managed to bypass this error by copying the custom map’s MAPNAME.ff file from the mod’s folder into %localappdata%\Plutonium\storage\t5\zone and following the steps in the first link again. From the 3 maps I’ve tested, only 2 have worked and the 3rd one just crashed the game upon entering the command to start the map with an error message stating that ”Oops! Plutonium ran into a problem and must be closed.” and that the problem details have been written in a crashdump. The maps I’ve tried are: Winter Wunderland (zombie_ww), Facility (zombie_facility), Kowloon (zombie_kow). The maps that worked were Winter Wunderland and Facility, with Kowloon being the one to crash the game upon trying to start it.

        Hadi77KSA Alright, thank you. I think I'm going to try duplicating the zombie_nuketown file (which is a modded Nuketown Zombies map for BO1) into the folder you mentioned (already forgot the comment) and see if it'll work there. Also, do I have to copy over the Mod.FF file as well, or just the map?

          McMoffett you can keep mod.ff in the mod's folder I believe.

                aboodbanafa if it didn't work, then unfortunately there isn't much to be done to make it work. Use Game_Mod on the Steam version if you want to play it.

                    Oihanix I saw you have made a post that has an error the command is not always the same it depends on the custom map you are playing and before you run the command you should load the mod from mods in the main menu just make sure you do that and it should work
                    and this is a list of the command of some custom maps
                    battery: \map zombie_battry
                    Highschool of the Dead: \map zombie_school
                    Mindshare: \map zombie_marduk
                    perish: \map zombie_perish

                        SingForMe load the mod of the map and use the in-game custom map select menu.
