-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] hello all, recent steam updates have uncovered a changelevel bug in svencoop3.0 this bug prevents the server from automatically changing to the next map. it affects maps in a series like toonrun1.bsp toonrun2.bsp toonrun3.bsp
a workaround is to put a nextmap statement in the map config file. ie. toonrun1.cfg would have this added: nextmap toonrun2 I imagine this is fixed in svencoop3.5 while waiting for the upcoming release of version 3.5 originally planned dec 04 question for the community: is it possible to write a script that will edit the cfg files? dir *.bsp afrikakorps1.bsp afrikakorps2.bsp afrikakorps3.bsp auspices.bsp toonrun1.bsp toonrun2.bsp toonrun3.bsp append a line to afrikakorps1.cfg like: nextmap afrikakorps2 append a line to afrikakorps2.cfg like: nextmap afrikakorps3 no change to afrikakorps3.cfg no change to auspices.cfg this will not fix the single player maps as the correct sequence cannot be determined from the file names. it's OK I already fixed them. in a batch script I can read the map names and strip off the file extension it is easy to append a nextmap statement to a cfg file. but I don't know how to manipulate the strings. someone said it would be easy to do in perl or python but that would require anyone wanting to use the script to install support for perl or python. vbs is native to xp but I don't know anything about it. this may only affect a couple of hundred maps on a couple of hundred computers any help I would be eternally grateful. -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
