I am just wondering. Is there actually an option or setting which enables me to vote for different Map - sets ?

What I mean is : we have LOTS of maps on our server which is quite overwhelming for some people .. It would be great if you could vote e.g for Standard Maps, Custom Maps, Clan xyz Maps and so on ??

Any idea ?

the only way that will come close to doing that is to use gamemake and make additional gametypeclasses for example you could make dm maplist one and set it to UseMapList=true then when that game is voted you would use the maplist u created for that game but theres no way to see that maplist until that game is voted and passed

Ok, that makes sense. Same like I change the Game to ONS and I get only ONS Maps ....... Don't I have to change maybe the Prefix, like DM, Std, Cust or whatever ?

But thanks, nice Idea .....

with game make you can name it whatever you want doesnt maytter you could call it anything "my dumb game" the dm part doesnt matter

Yepper, that's the way to go.. name your custom gametypes as "ONS Custom maps", "ONS Clan maps", etc..

I know.. a late hit after the whistle, just thought I would help clarify.

Ok, I tried that.

But : I think in scripting I am more then a noob :)

There my questions :

I have created a new Gamtype with GameMake3 called StandardMaps.

Ok, it now created a folder Deathgame and beneath that Classes.

1. Question : I assume the folder including the subfolder has to go in the ut root folder ???

To be able to use voteable maplist, I understand that I have to set in the Gametype UseMapList=False to True ... right ?

So, now I think that as maplist the file MapListDeathgame.uc will be used (the one within the folder Deathgame\Classes), or not ?

If so, what exactly (besides the map names of course) has to be in there ?

Code:
// Default MapList for: Deathmatch on Standardmaps

class MapListDeathgame extends MapList;

defaultproperties
{
    Mapnum=0
    Maps(0)="DM-Antalus"
}

Ok, obviously the map name without extension ??

What means Mapnum=0 and Maps(0)= ???

Any help is HIGHLY appreciated

hmm, afaik, if u set usemaplist=true, it will use the maplist you defined in your ut2004.ini. As soon as you start your new gametype and there is no maplist, it will define one from the default-maplist. Then you can edit that new one.
