There shouldn't be a problem of with what you stated, but there can be a chance that you accidentally named one of the files in the INI wrong. Make sure they are correct then reupload and post back.

Just edit the INI that you compiled it in. It should only give you an error if the file is missing. You can compile any file, but the filename might be wrong correlating to the Continuum filenames.

That looks fine to me. Make sure you re-enter the arena after you change the CFG for the arena.

doesnt work ive probably done sumit really stupid like a noob i am lol ive got the lvz file in my server right but do i need the bm2 files in aswell?

No, the LVZ file is a compressed package of the files you specified. The bm2 files don't have to be in the server directory.

Did the LVZ compile correctly?

Code: Show/Hide

outfile =Zone_test_grfx.lvz

Not sure if a space after 'Outfile' will work, but if it compiled, it worked I guess.

You're not answering Cyan's question.

thats the serever directory oO

Solo Ace · Posted: Sat May 21, 2005 10:41 am Post subject:

So what did he ask? Are you answering his question by giving him the path to the server directory?

N00B · Guest Offline

is the folder its in along with all the server files oh and i forgot it says cannot load test with a . on end oO

so basically seeing ur thick as shit the path is where the server files are and guess wats in the folder THE LVZ FILE!?! there we go , and if ur still wondering wat the answer to cyans question is it is yes lol

Solo Ace · Posted: Mon May 23, 2005 9:45 am Post subject:

Then you should've said something like "Yes, I'm sure the LVZ is in the server directory.", not something like "C:\Documents and Settings\**\Desktop\ss\testserver14", fool.

Do you have the full filename (with extension) in Misc:LevelFiles? You must include the extension as more than just LVZs can go there.

xrestassuredx, read above. I already suggested that and it was replied that it didn't help.
