Why can't I see a complete list of maps available?

[Lisa]

I hope someone can help me.

When I go into a server (Groms #1). I look for a map to load but the majority of times it isn't listed there. For example, I just went into the server because it was empty and I wanted to tryout nm_ramdom. But when I clicked to change map, it wasn't there. This has happened to me with quite a few maps, not just this one.

Any suggestions?

some reasons:

1)Groms server doesnt have nm_random yet
and
2)Sometimes you have those jump paks from other servers which make it so you can only see the ones in the pack.

To make it simpler, instead of going into the call vote just type in

/callvote map (map name)
or
/callvote map_restart
or
/callvote kick (name)
and so on and so on.

The map selection in call vote usually only shows about 20-30 maps same for creating your own server...

Soo ya do what NN said use console, its much easier, and you can call vote for anything, even if you don't have the map (and the server does)

i belief when your playing a "TDM" map, its not showing "DM" only maps.
for that reason and some more reasons i would like to plead to have "change game type" turned on.

eg: if i would like to jump "jm_milestone" i can vote for it via the console,
but will cause the server to stall, because "jm_milestone" is "TDM" and most jump maps are played "DM"

Thats interesting. What exactly do you mean by "stall"? Does it ever load the map or does it crash, or does it just load a random map for the game type its set to?

When I make a map, I put in spawnpoints for both TDM and DM....I guess I just assumed most other people did the same. But regardless, nightmares suggestion works for me.

Thanks for your replies

it does load the map but you cant enter the map, because there is no spawnpoint, and i belief there is no timer as well.
therefor the maprotation doesn't kick it.

these days i even put in a "info_player_start" so i can also play it SP.
