I just set up my dedicated server today, and i have an easy question but i can't seem to get it to work... i got it running on another computer, and people can join, i can join... no problems with that.. but i have a custom gametype set up on the rotation, and they won't work, it only goes to the classic ones.

i have typed in for the customs -- sv_mapcycle_add chillout "snipes shields" (thats the file's name)... and so i changed the path on the shortcut to both the networks path which would start out like -path"\\reid\Documents and Settings\Reid Plevka\My Documents\My Games\Halo" or something like that (my comp's name is reid).. and that didn't work so i tried -path"C:\Documents and Settings\Reid Plevka\My Documents\My Games\Halo"

so i when i opened those i'd get the error message on the command prompt saying, there was an error with the custom ones, so it would only run the classic game types..

this is my rotation.. the ones with "snipes shields" doesn't work

sv_mapcycle_add beavercreek "Classic Slayer Pro"
sv_mapcycle_add ratrace "Classic Slayer Pro"
sv_mapcycle_add chillout "snipes shields"
sv_mapcycle_add bloodgulch "snipes shields"
sv_mapcycle_add hangemhigh "Classic Slayer Pro"
sv_mapcycle_add chillout "Classic Slayer Pro"
sv_mapcycle_add ratrace "snipes shields"
sv_mapcycle_add beavercreek "snipes shields"
sv_mapcycle_begin


any help would be appreciated.

thanks- reid

OK, when you create custom game types the mapfiles are saved in MyGames\Halo\savesgames\sniper_shield

In your dedicated server in the Halo directory where you put the init file you must create a cg folder then a savegames folder. Copy the custom savegames from your My Games folder into the dedicated servers savegames folder and you will be able to load the custom gametypes.
