Maybe this was already said somewhere in the other 168 pages but is there also a option/module to see visually what map you can vote on?

I saw on a server a option for more information, and it showed like a motd splash pictures of the map so that you know what map it is.

You use one command option and separate multiple commands with a semicolon, like this:

"command"  "sm_*some command*; sm_*some command*"

That's a really cool idea. Unfortunately there is no way to add that option to the vote menu using SourceMod's voting API (when selected it will be counted as a vote). However, it may be possible using a chat command when the vote is running, so a user can type "!info <map|vote#>" and then that information will appear.

News about using builtin votes ?

@steel: so howcome i saw this on a server running saxton hale? I assume that was sourcemod then. It looked pretty much the same mapvote almost.

The only thing you would have to do is send out a motd request + the map names of say 4 entry's and then a php which will do the rest. Maybe ash/psy know a way to handle this?

Do you have any plans to update this? I would really love to see an option so the first vote option would be "No vote".

Seems not much progress on builtinvotes by powerlord

There should only be a chance (and only a chance) that community maps are included in the vote if there are +20 players on the server at the time. In the meanwhile rtv must function as usual, with nominations, more than 2 choices and whatnot. It doesn't really matter if players can nominate community maps or not even when there are less than 20 players. We are currently accomplishing something like this using bash scripts to modify the map cycle file while the server is running, which works but isn't ideal. Thank you!

Great, that will have to do. However, now I've run into some problems. I'm using UMC for the end of map vote and want to use the stock sm plugins for nominate and rtv so that they are isolated from each other, meaning you can still rtv and you can still nominate maps to be included in the rtv as well as getting the full list as opposed to only 2 alternatives, but you cannot nominate maps for the end of map vote.

So I kept mapchooser, rockthevote and nominations however nominations does not load due due to the error "Unable to load plugin "nominations.smx": Native "GetExcludeMapList" was not found" and I'm also getting this error although I have not looked into what problems it could cause: "[umc-endvote.smx] Unable to create end of map vote time-trigger, trigger time already passed". Of course I also disabled the UMC modules responsible for rtv and nominations.

For the time being I am mainly focused on bug fixes. Right now UMC is stable (until someone reports a new bug) so I have it on the back-burner as I settle in school.

If you could explain how exactly the user brings up the info for the map, I could perhaps gain some insight on how to implement this. If you could provide explicit detail as to how the menu looked, which buttons do what, etc. I could probably figure something out.
