dodbits

Both of these hold the names of your maps in dod/maps folder. It is a pain to get these correct; they have to be in this format...

dod_jagd

Not dod_jagd.bsp or DOD_JAGD ... lowercase or as the name is named onthe .bsp file without the file extension.

A quick way of doing this is with HLSW and NotePad. The dods steam forums has a nice post about this method used by [I&S] Pvt_John .

The technique of getting the file names is different; I will change this a bit using HLSW.

1. In HLSW select your server, click on the console tab.
2. Type ... maps * .. then the send button. Make sure there is a space between maps and the *
3. In the console you have the complete list of your .bsp files. Copy them to a New Text Document.

PENDING: (fs) dod_anzio.bsp
PENDING: (fs) dod_argentan.bsp
PENDING: (fs) dod_avalanche.bsp
PENDING: (fs) dod_colmar.bsp
PENDING: (fs) dod_donner.bsp
PENDING: (fs) dod_flash.bsp
PENDING: (fs) dod_jagd.bsp
PENDING: (fs) dod_kalt.bsp
PENDING: (fs) dod_palermo.bsp

Ok... not many and you can edit that quickly. What if you have hundreds of maps!!!!

Then use item 4 in that forum post. The "Replace" function in NotePad.

4. Highlight and copy the ...
PENDING: (fs)
...bit in front the one on the first line. Make sure you get all the spaces!




Go to Edit, Replace, and paste " PENDING: (fs) " in the "Find what" input line.
Leave the "Replace with" input box blank

5. Press the "Replace All" button. Every instance of the unwanted part is now gone.

6. Now while the replace box is still up type in .bsp and press the Replace All button.

Now... all the rubbish is gone and the list is correct. Just copy the contents to the two files mapcycle.txt and maplist.txt and place them in the server dod folder.
