I have been having a hard time trying to run around my little map i made. I posted what my current error is. It says cod2 but it is CoD:ww. All i have in the map is a skybox, axis spawn, allied spawn, light, reflection probe, a small building, some terrian patches. I tried to make a .GSC file but im not sure if i did it right. Any help would be greatly apprenticed!!! My xfire is stahlsta210.

When you run the compiler, look at the bottom left hand corner of the lanucher. In that box it tells you what process is running, once you have clicked the compile button Do Not Do Anything untill it says "No Active process" in the red box.

Don't worry about cod2 stuff, that's meant to be there. Once that is done load up your map and see if you have any problems. If your still unsure there is a video tutorial here on the codww mapping basics

WOW great video. I hope people keep making videos like that for mod tools.That solved my problems thanks man!

I get the same acess denied errors. Ive tried to run my little map and nothing.

What was your problem?

I didnt solve it. I started a new map and followed EVERYTHING he did in the video.

You didn't mention having a tdm_spawn entity. That will bomb your map if you don't have it and you could also try removing your .gsc file until you get your map to run.

What error messages do you get?. Does the game just crash or does something pop up and tell you something. Are there error messages in your compile log?

I had allie, axis, and spec spawns. Everytime I tried to launch the launch screen for my map would come up then after loading it would switch to backlot. Then to top it off when i tried to launch the game to play on my server it would only come up in the small launch window you get when creating a map on my profile.

TDM spawns
DM spawns
Global Intermission

Basic Script
and a default zone source file is all you should need to test your mp map.
