I've never really know which file extension to use for any particular situation.

I wrote a plugin (from a request) for this file:

// Configure the maximum number of rounds per map.
cs_italy 2
// cs_office 99
de_dust 38
de_aztec 22

So, .cfg or .ini?

Comment lines are "//" and ";" respectively correct?

// Configure the maximum number of rounds per map. cs_italy 2 // cs_office 99 de_dust 38 de_aztec 22

It needs to be a .ini file i suppose

Because in a cfg needs to be cvars...

This aint really cvars

ini would be more likely... cfg is for cvars but can be used for anything actually, depends on how you read it and what data it contains... you can place any extension at all ... rounds_per_map.myCustomData or something, it doesn't really matter as long as it contains what you need

You can use any that you wish. There is no required format to use.

So, .cfg or .ini?

Personally, I would pick ini for this situation, unless they are CVARS.

If you are reading and parsing the file yourself, comment lines can be whatever you wish

I realized that I could choose anything but it's less confusing if you go with the standard. .

I'm just reading those in as mapnames so ini it will be. Thanks for the replies guys.
