[IW5][Help!] Load multiple custom maps on dedicated server
-
Hello guys I've run into a "problem" with the custom maps when trying to put multiple of these maps on my dedicated server I've joined other servers and these servers with multiple custom map rotation download each map as you play them, I couldn't find a way to do that since I can load only 1 mod in "seta fs_game" on "server.cfg" is there a mod to do that ? what I did is put everything in 1 folder "mp_pack" and set it up on my fastDL but when you join the server it downloads all the maps not the one needed and I mean it would be much better if there is a way to have them in separate folders for each map as other servers have it to not have the same map downloaded 2 times and just use it if you already have it.

Put the maps inside
storage\iw5\usermaps
create the usermaps folder if needed, and each map should have its own folder with the name of its main fast file. For example:storage\iw5\usermaps\mp_afghan
containingmp_afghan.arena
,mp_afghan.ff
,mp_afghan.iwd
andmp_afghan_load.ff

No offense or anything but you're the first person I see trying to load a map as a mod instead of the usermaps folder and it's surprising because it's not really documented and it makes sense, even more if you played WAW before for example where it does use the mods folder for maps
I just thought it's odd how all these active years I never witnessed this before
Glad you got it figured outIf you need anything else feel free to ask away
