Here's what happens when I log into my zone:

Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: junklv.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: junknw.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: junksh.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: junksp.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: junkte.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: junkwb.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: junkwe.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: jvroll.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: lvroll.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: nwroll.bm2

Tue Feb 11 19:40:17: Ext: Loading level file: shroll.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:18: Ext: Loading level file: sproll.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:18: Ext: Loading level file: teroll.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:18: Ext: Loading level file: turret.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:18: Ext: Loading level file: turret2.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:18: Ext: Loading level file: wbroll.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:18: Ext: Loading level file: weroll.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:18: Ext: Loading level file: exhaust.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:18: Ext: Loading level file: repel.bm2
Tue Feb 11 19:40:18: Ext: Loading level file: em
Tue Feb 11 19:40:18: Ext: Failed to load level file: em

The exhaust and repel have not been changed either, yet it's still uploads them. They were supposed to be reduced 50%, and neither look right. I think the exhaust changed to fit the 50% ships, but I can't tell. So probably just ignore exhaust, but I've changed repel twice from the original 100% bm2, and saved it to the server folder, over the one already there, but nothing seems to work.

This is what is in the server.cfg:

Levelfiles=junkjv.bm2, junklv.bm2, junknw.bm2, junksh.bm2, junksp.bm2, junkte.bm2, junkwb.bm2, junkwe.bm2, jvroll.bm2, lvroll.bm2, nwroll.bm2, ships.bm2, shroll.bm2, sproll.bm2, teroll.bm2, turret.bm2, turret2.bm2, wbroll.bm2, weroll.bm2, exhaust.bm2, repel.bm2, empburst.bm2, prizes.bm2, powerb.bm2, warp.bm2

I've read through it a few times, and I don't think there are any commas in the wrong places, but if there is, then call me stupid.

Any ideas why this is happening?

TIA

BAD idea. Make a .lvz file with those files, since then it will be compressed. Also, what happens is that when the server loads this string, it only reads so many bytes per line. It cuts off at your empburst.bm2, as you can see that it loads the repel.bm2 fine.

Make a file called mystuff.ini in your server folder, and put this in it:

Code: Show/Hide

Outfile=images.lvz

File=junkjv.bm2
File=junklv.bm2
File=junknw.bm2
File=junksh.bm2
File=junksp.bm2
File=junkte.bm2
File=junkwb.bm2
File=junkwe.bm2
File=jvroll.bm2
File=lvroll.bm2
File=nwroll.bm2
File=ships.bm2
File=shroll.bm2
File=sproll.bm2
File=teroll.bm2
File=turret.bm2
File=turret2.bm2
File=wbroll.bm2
File=weroll.bm2
File=exhaust.bm2
File=repel.bm2
File=empburst.bm2
File=prizes.bm2
File=powerb.bm2
File=warp.bm2

Then use either my Makelevel program or Bob Dole.. Bob Dole... Bob Dole...... bob dole.... bob... dole....'s CLE to convert it into a .lvz file.
