Can't launch maps not patched over source maps

Post by Axel »

Well, being maybe a week into the modding scene I have been trying out many of the mods around here, and have come across a few .serenity patches that set up a new selection in the mainmenu.map for it. However, when I launch that new selection, the game restarts back to the main menu or in some cases back to the game lobby.

However, when I change the output to the name of the source map and just overwrite it and ftp that, it works fine. It's not that big of a deal, but eventually I'm sure I'll want to have a list of my favorites which may have the same source map, so I was hoping someone could shed some light on why this may be happening.

Thanks.

Take off your AU.

Go to E:\TDATA\4d530064\$u and rename $u to anything.

Now try loading your map. ;)
