ASSS Questions - lvz

Post subject: lvz

im unable to upload lvz on as3.
using the following commands:
?cd arenas/#name
?putfile blah.lvz
?seta general:levelfiles blah.lvz

Tried making the LVZ through both DCME and manually, neither works.
Anyone got a clue where I might have gone wrong?

?reloadconf
Then re-enter the arena.

Do you download it into your zone directory when you enter the arena? If yes, then there's nothing wrong on the ASSS side. If no, then post a server log and we'll see if there's anything fishy there.

thx, unfortunately not working either.
so its either my lvz or a server issue?
lvz should be fine though..

only 1 out of 4 lvz files is downloaded into the zone folder (tested 4 times).

the 1 that was downloaded actually worked before, although it showed major bugs that shudnt have happened (blurred pic for example).

I should be able to use .jpg files, right?

Make sure your levelfiles settings is: file1.lvz,file2.lvz,file3.lvz,file4.lvz

Also... jpg's are compressed and will be blurred by definition. Use .png's instead. Also, black pixels (0,0,0) appear transparent, so if you have a very dark area in the image, some of it will appear almost-black, while some of it will appear transparent, which can cause weird effects.

oh it alrdy becomes transparant, thats nice, saves me some PS work;
however, uploaded blah.lvz as test (.png);

subsquently .?seta general:levelfiles blah.lvz, then ?reloadconf ?recyclearena and still nothing is showing..

i cant see how my .ini of my lvz has bugs, since iv also did it like this..
any other options I may have missed out on?

thx for all yer help, though.

?geta general:levelfiles

Make sure all the LVZs you expect are listed. They should be separated by commas, like Samapico said.

Post your lvz(s) .ini.. Or even better: your .lvz files themselves

after using ?geta i realized an older lvz file with wrong files was assigned.
afterwards i realized its: .?seta general:levelfiles=blah.lvz

i did not realize the '= ' sign was required!

again, thx
