Oh. I found the problem. The Addon manager interface thing I am using for the server I rented is using the old version, and cfg/sourcemod/mapchooser.cfg has just a # in it.

Ok, sorry. My bad. >.> I'll go back and see if I can upload the newest version manually or something.

On a side note, if you're using MapChooser (the one that comes with SourceMod), it uses mapchooser.cfg. If you're using MapChooser Extended (the one in the first post of this thread), it uses mapchooser_extended.cfg.

While MapChooser Extended does have all the options MapChooser does, it doesn't read the MapChooser config file.

Ok, it seems I am having a bit of a Problem. When I start my server, everything is fine. The first map shows the correct voting at the rounds end (6+Extend at 2 mins left). However, once it's changed maps, it goes back to the default settings (5 with no Extend at 3 mins left).

Any idea why it's doing this?

The plugin's cvars will be re-read every map change from mapchooser_extended.cfg (not mapchooser.cfg). If you have them set in sourcemod.cfg, they will likely be overridden at the first map change.

Thank you for the help Powerlord.

However, even if I place the cvars in both server.cfg AND cfg/sourcemod/mapchooser_extended.cfg, I still get the same error. :'(

I stressed mapchooser_extended.cfg, because there are two mapchooser config files, and earlier, you were mentioning mapchooser.cfg rather than mapchooser_extended.cfg

The cvars should really only be put in a single file. Double-check server.cfg and sourcemod.cfg and make sure the sm_mapvote cvars don't exist in there as well.

If that doesn't work, can you give me your server's plugin list? (sm plugins list)

Hey there
I'm having some problems in adding new maps, it basically seems the maps are either not loaded or not put in the vote menu.
I added the new maps in the following files

tf/mapcycle.txt
tf/maplist.txt
tf/cfg/sourcemod/mapchooser_extended.cfg
tf/addons/sourcemod/configs/adminmenu_maplist.ini
tf/addons/sourcemod/configs/nominations.txt
tf/addons/sourcemod/configs/maplists.cfg
tf/addons/sourcemod/configs/saxton_hale_maps.cfg
tf/addons/sourcemod/configs/mapchooser_extended/maps/tf.txt

where is the mod supposed to load the maps from?

Where the plugin pulls maps from depends on how maplists.cfg is configured. It's reads the mapchooser section, which defaults to the value of mapcyclefile (which should be tf/mapcycle.txt in your case).

This file is re-read on every map change.

Having said that, it checks to make sure a map is valid before adding it to the vote, so the map has to exist in the server's tf/maps directory first.

Note: Entries in mapcycle.txt is the name of the map *without* the .bsp extension, and map files on the server must not be compressed (this is a game engine restriction).

P. S. Sorry I didn't respond yesterday. Apparently reporting spam bot posts a second time a month apart noting that it's the second time you've reported them is grounds for a 24-hour ban on AlliedModders. I hope the mods realize the message I've taken away from this is to not report Spam Bot posts.

Oh, awesome, I wasn't really sure what "default" meant. I'll check that asap !
Thanks a lot and no problem !!

Hello,

I've been using this plugin on TF2 server for a few days now and everything is working fine, except sometimes it forgets to start a vote and server just changes map to the next in mapcycle.txt, even though it have to start 10 minutes before map ends according to config (am I right here?), there is no round limit on server, only time limit. I want server to make a vote on every map. What am I doing wrong?
