Is it possible, for example, to have map1 with rail only then map 2 with bfgs and rail and map 3 with grapple and gauntlet?

I have tried loading, execing, different configs from with in my map rotation file but they do not make a difference. I have also tried other things, but nothing seems to work. I have had a look at different configs but they haven't helped. And I have tried trawling the forum but not found the answer (it may already be here somewhere and I've missed it - there are a lot of post to search through!)

Any suggestions on how to do it or even a sorry, can't be done would be welcome.

Thanks in advance.

possible to use diff configs with rotation, also if part in config should work.

In theory I agree with you. In practice.... It ain't working! I must be doing something wrong.

in my main config file I have...

set xp_config "Eplussettings.cfg"
set xp_rotation "Eplusmaps.txt"

In my eplussettings.cfg I have...

Start Weapons: 64+1+256; // Rail, Gauntlet, BFG.

in my Eplusmaps.txt I have...

q3tourney3{
/Load: /conf/railsettings;
weapons: "1+64";
g_speed: 350; // This changes
g_knockback: 100; //This changes
fraglimit: 15; // This changes
}

Railsettings is one which came with Eplus.

When I run it I still get BFG, Rail and Gauntlet. I do not get any error messages such as 'unexpected <item>'

I am unable to disable the BFG.

Leaving out the set xp_config "Eplussettings.cfg" just give we default settings.

Is there away to do it? And re-enable it on the next map?

BTW it is for a server.

It's quite possible and another alternative would be to create your own weapon cfg and cramp it with information about maps.

if ( $mapname == "map1" ) { Start Weapons = (WP_GAUNTLET | WP_MACHINEGUN); }
else if ( $mapname == "map2" ) { Start Weapons = (WP_GAUNTLET | WP_MACHINEGUN | WP_SHOTGUN | WP_GRENADE_LAUNCHER | WP_ROCKET_LAUNCHER | WP_LIGHTNING | WP_RAILGUN | WP_PLASMAGUN | WP_BFG); }
else if ( $mapname == "map3" )... and so on.

Thank you very much!

I shall try that and see if I can get it working.

I don't know why the load config didn't change things but if this works...
Well it could be a lot of fun

This should be in your weapon config, then all u need is /rcon load conf/blablabla or set xp_config to load it Happy

I found out why I couldn't get a config to load in the map rotation - a simple syntax error!

I now have it working. Thanks a lot!

syntax: /Load /conf/filename

No colon and no semi-colon at the end!
