I packed into a pk3, got my arena file in and ti shows up on my list fo maps for a server...but when i go to load it it start to laod the server then says it has a script compile error and and crashes to the main menu. what i do wrong now?

thanks,
George

start codmp
click start a server
bring down the console and type developer 1
you can then put the console away and start your map in the selection screen

when a script error occurs - press the tilade to bring down the console and there is your error....

ok thanks..but I want to use this at a lan party how will i fix it?

Well, see what the error says, and if you can't sort it, post what it says & your .gsc

ok one more stupid question..how do i copy stuff from the console to here...my map doesnt have any gsc files i didn't use any gsc stuff making it

and why would it work before I packed it?

Umm copying stuff from console u cud just take a screen print, and correct me if im wrong but script compile error just means that youve got too much stuff in your main file normally if you have a two or more of the same type of mod it can do this just delete one or place it in a seperate folder, normally works.

ok here is a link to a doc file with the screen shot in it. I dont know how to print screen it to a jPG file....

I tried delting extra files out of my main folder..didnt wok.

ok I fixed it! you were right it was some custom PAk file i had in the main folder, i got rid of it and it loads fine.

thanks guys!

A script compile error can mean many things. The best way to find out exactly where/what/how to solve the problem is to locate exactly what the console says the error is.....

For example, a script compile error could point to a typo error in your .gsc, or as above, it could point to something else.

Rather than simply fixing a problem, it is well worth knowing how to locate it first! (If you catch my drift!)
