umc-mapcommands doesn't seem to be working at all for me. (As in, the commands don't get executed at all.)

I got same Problem.

In some cases the configs are gettin exec. In other cases they wont take effect.

Yeah, seems to be 50/50.

Use the Random Mapcycle module; if a vote fails (or no vote takes place), then at the end of the map the next map will be selected randomly.

I will investigate why this might be happening.

Much appreciated, thanks! Do the map rate weights apply to the random selection?

Also I seem to have run into a problem where the map never ends due to no players being on so the random map selection never gets called, an example being on ctf_turbine:

Time left shows

[SM] This is the last round!!

When I join the empty server we get "Waiting for players" and then when that has finished, we hit a stalemate and the map then finishes.

The only possible workaround to this I think would be setting,:
mp_match_end_at_timelimit 1

EDIT: This didn't work either

Steell,

There is a problem with nominations. I was on ge_facility_backzone and I typed into chat nominate a. It responded with:

[UMC] Troy has nominated a.

In my UMC log I found:

L 06/22/2012 - 02:06:41: [umc-nominate.smx] Troy has nominated 'a' from group 'ge_facility_backzone'

I think it's suppose to say:

[UMC] Could not find map

[PMAvers]

Huh.

Been having a weird problem where the mod isn't doing votes for the first round. Instead, it's just going to whatever map is next in the original mapcycle.txt.

I'm assuming it's a strange configuration error.

[Helvetica]

How do you make it so the End of Map vote only triggers itself after a certain amount of rounds have been played? I've gone through every cvar like 50 times and cannot find a way to make it ignore timelimit.

None of my maps use timelimit so I just get:

[umc-endvote.smx] Unable to create end of map vote time-trigger, trigger time already passed.

Over, and over, and over again.

EDIT: Nevermind, solution was to just delete the mp_timelimit cvar out of the server.cfg file altogether.
