So when the server executres sm_mapvote, it brings up a list for people to vote, but it has maps that are not in the target file, or the file specified. this is my mapslists.cfg

/**
 * Use this file to configure map lists.
 *
 * Each section is a map list that plugins can use.  For example, the Admin Menu 
 * requests an "admin menu" map list, and you can control which maps appear via 
 * this file.
 *
 * Each section must have a property that explains where to read the maps from.
 * There are two properties:
 *
 *    target         - Redirect the request to another section.
 *    file             - Read a file of map names, in mapcycle.txt format.
 *
 * There is one section by default, called "mapcyclefile" - it is mapped to the 
 * mapcycle.txt file, or whatever the contents of your mapcyclefile cvar is.
 *
 * If a plugin requests a map list file which doesn't exist, or is empty, SourceMod 
 * tries the "default" section, and then the "mapcyclefile" section.
 */
"MapLists"
{
    /**
     * Default requests go right to the mapcyclefile.
     */
    "default"
    {
        "target"        "mapcyclefile"
    }
    
    /* Admin menu, map menu */
    "sm_map menu"
    {
        "file"            "addons/sourcemod/configs/adminmenu_maplist.ini"
    }
    
    /* Admin menu, map voting menu */
    "sm_votemap menu"
    {
        "file"            "addons/sourcemod/configs/adminmenu_maplist.ini"
    }
    
    /* For the "randomcycle" plugin */
    "randomcycle"
    {
        "target"        "default"
    }
    
    /* For the "mapchooser" plugin */
    "mapchooser"
    {
        "target"        "default"
    }

So the plugins can't find the file.

Let me rephrase my question: What's the output on the server console if you type "mapcyclefile"
Because your config tells the plugins to use the file referenced there.

"mapcyclefile" = "mapcycle.txt"
          game
          - Name of the .txt file used to cycle the maps on multiplayer servers

You have ...css/cstrike/mapcycle.txt file ?

[Archey]

yes..

[Bacardi]

Could you attach in your post your
mapcycle.txt
maplist.txt
and maplists.cfg from SM configs
I want to quick check

[Archey]

yeah, heres all 3

[Bacardi]

You have similiar problem as here
nextmap and votemap errors?

Your txt files are "Macintosh" format. (I have posted #4)

Try change that to windows format.

*edit
Or take another txt file, rename, add maps and overwrite old file.
