Map Rotation Help

Kill-Many

Is there a guide that shows you how to only get certain maps to rotate after sop many rounds/matches. I found one and followed it but for some reason, it only cycles between 2 of the 8 maps I have on my server. Help!

+MapRotationList="FLO_Checkout_EX" leave like this to have it in rotation.

;+MapRotationList="FLO_InsurgentCamp_AC" Add : in front to remove from rotation.

Kill-Many

The default line did not have the + sign in front. Does it need to be there? Otherwise, this is exactly how mine is set up but only cycles through like 2 of the maps.

Are you using DefaultGame.ini to change your settings.

Kill-Many

I am using the AAGame.ini that is on the gamerservers site.

-SD-DELTON-ACI-

Use DefaultGame.ini and follow what i have put remember put ; in front of the maps you don't want on rotation.

Kill-Many

Is the DefaultGame.ini stored on my pc and not the rented server?

Kill-Many

I have tried editing the AAGame.ini and the DefaultGame.ini and it is still cycling through all maps and not any of the UMM's that I have added. I can manually switch to the UMM's through the admin console in game. What am I doing wrong?

I will be on between 5pm and 7pm uk time.

Kill-Many

Ok, I will try to do that.

Kill-Many

Actually, I won't be able to do that. The time range you gave is right in the middle of my work day, so I won;t be able to do that. :-(

-SD-DELTON-ACI-

Maybe this will help

I am currently able to switch to the UMM maps they just aren't showing up in the map rotation. I will give this a try when I am able.

Kill-Many

I followed the link you posted and it still didn't work. Ugh.

Did you add your maps here DefaultGame.ini like this

+MapRotationList="FLO_Reaction_EX"
+MapRotationList="FLO_Intercept_C4"
+MapRotationList="FLO_Downtown_EX"
+MapRotationList="FLO_InsurgentCamp_AC"
+MapRotationList="flo_DoubleImpact$76561198010761141_th"
+MapRotationList="flo_sdvillage$76561198010761141_th"

also remember to upload them here
File Manager/AAPG/AAGame/CookedPC/Maps Only add the UMAP file don't add the metadata file here.
and here you need to add UMAP file and metadata file.

Where is the DefaultGame.ini located? On my PC or on the Gameserver server?

-SD-DELTON-ACI-

Game server.
Who is your provider.

There is no DefaultGame.ini for me to edit. Just the AAGame.ini which I have done.

Kill-Many

My provider is Gameserver and I don't see a DefaultGame.ini. I only see AAGame.ini

-SD-DELTON-ACI-

There is a DefaultGame.ini but if you only see AAGame.ini then set them up like this.
MapRotationList=FLO_Reaction_EX
MapRotationList=FLO_Intercept_C4
MapRotationList=FLO_Downtown_EX
MapRotationList=FLO_InsurgentCamp_AC
MapRotationList=flo_DoubleImpact$76561198010761141_th
MapRotationList=flo_sdvillage$76561198010761141_th

Remember the ones you don't want on rotation set like this

;MapRotationList=FLO_Downtown_EX

Not sure why Gameservers don't give access to DefaultGame.ini.

Despite all advice's given, you should normally not edit the default files.
The way settings work in game is cascading, the base level is starting with base files, settings in here is combined with default files to output the user files.
The user files is generated new either on change of base/default files or change of a setting through ingame menus.
Manually editing the user files is needed for server setup in most cases, but it will be overwritten with any change of base/default files.

With that said, some(all?) server providers seems to have some sort of backup/restore function enables triggering the reset of the user files on a regular basis hence the need for editing the default files.
