Hi, sorry to create yet another thread on this but there are so many issues raised in each topic that its hard to find out what the fixes are.

I have folowed the wiki tut so many times now and im not seeing any results. my mp_map gives an error messge when you try and run the map from the compiler. It says cant load 'loadscreen_mp_mapname' then closes. And the mp_test map just doesnt display a loadscreen.

Does anyone know why i get the error message that the map cant find my loadscreen ?

Thanx

got the same problem and any help would be nice ;)

mapping is much easier than makin a loadscreen for cod4 :(

With patch 1.5 you have to start your map out the game for testing compass and loadscreen not out of compiler.

You will have to create a folder called mp_mapname with the ff files and the mp_mapname.iwd file and put it in your usermaps folder.

Start the game, start a mod, open console "map mp_mapname" enter.

Thanx {MASS}Sgt, that works a treat.

How do i now test the map now i know the loadcreen works?
Ive tryed to remove the line

levelBriefing,loadscreen_mp_mapname

from my raw/maps/mapname.csv file but that doesnt work.

Anyone kno?

you can lanch your map with the compiler too with minimap and loadscreen
but you have to make shere that u have you iwd in your Mods/ModWarfare folder
then in you level compiling check the box that say
use custom command line
then add this below in the box
+set fs_game Mods/ModWarfare

So now everytime you click run selected map thought the editor it will lanch the ModWarfare mod with your map

Thanks KillerCrazzy, works a treat!

you guys are confusing me. Can you start from the beginning how to do all this??

ok...I run "Run Selected Map" through the compiler tool....pre 1.5 patch, everything worked, now it doesnt. So now I see it has to be included in the .IWD file. How do we make an IWD file, and what are the FILES and DIRECTORIES INSIDE it, and WHERE does the IWD file get placed?? I see too many people give half answers and skip steps assuming we all know them in detail. With all the changes in the updates and patches and stuff, this mapping business is getting worse and worse if you dont keep up.

So please...can someone tell us step by step what to do to get a map working in game now....if it was working before??

hi greekdish, i would reccomend reading this tut, its prety simple. Once you have got your iwd ready, folow Mass Sgt's advice and youll be laughin again.
