I have put the + sign in front of the .lvz that I am using for a background, and now when people join, regardless of using optional graphics there is no background. Anyone know why this is happening, and how I can fix it? Thanks.

try it with no + sign. If that doesnt work, post your lvl file code and maybe someone can point out the errors. Could be something like this

Code: Show/Hide WRONG: Outfile=blah.lvz File=a1.bmp File=commands.hlp IMAGE0=a1.bmp [mapobjects] 100,100,IMAGE0,AfterTiles,ShowAlways CORRECT: Outfile=blah.lvz File=a1.bmp File=commands.hlp [objectimages] ;<---Joo Need This! IMAGE0=a1.bmp [mapobjects] 100,100,IMAGE0,AfterTiles,ShowAlways

Leaving out those tags will give you the no images showing result, but if thats not the case, post the code

Ok heres the current code:

File=Grassbg.bmp

IMAGE0=grassbg.bmp,1,1,100

Ok, still doesnt work:

Outfile=BACKGR~1.LVZ

File=Grassbg.bmp

[objectimages]
IMAGE0=grassbg.bmp,1,1,100

[mapobjects]
0,0,IMAGE0,AfterBackground,ShowAlways,0,0
0,816,IMAGE0,AfterBackground,ShowAlways,0,0
0,1632,IMAGE0,AfterBackground,ShowAlways,0,0
0,2448,IMAGE0,AfterBackground,ShowAlways,0,0
0,3264,IMAGE0,AfterBackground,ShowAlways,0,0
0,4080,IMAGE0,AfterBackground,ShowAlways,0,0
0,4896,IMAGE0,AfterBackground,ShowAlways,0,0
0,5712,IMAGE0,AfterBackground,ShowAlways,0,0
(etc.)

[SuSE]

what doesn't work, exactly?

is the file named "backgr~1.lvz" or are you attempting to use window's stupid shortening system?

did you upload the .lvz to the server for your zone?

did you add it to misc:levelfiles= of your .cfg?

did you put a + before the file name in the misc:levelfiles= list?

did you personally test it with optional level graphics on AND off?

are you (or whoever is testing) using Continuum, or SubSpace?

I believe that you need a X coordate > 0. I made a lvz file from what he had and had the same results, my server works fine.

Code: Show/Hide outfile=background.lvz File=grassbg.bmp [objectimages] IMAGE0=grassbg.bmp,1,1,100 [mapobjects] 0,1632,IMAGE0,AfterBackground,ShowAlways 1st number is the X coord and 2nd number is Y coord, if you have X=0 then its not on the map. So try like 300 in that place and mess around a bunch of times until you get it where you want it, after that you can do the math of where each object should be placed next
