Ok i know this isn't the best of releases iv'e seen, but hey it might help someone. (example is for infected)

The 2 new maps i am referring to are...mp_aground and mp_courtyard these 2 maps are free so everyone will get them no need to pay for DLC to get these so you are free to add them in rotation knowing everyone will have them.

First thing is that currently this only works for the 1.9 game version so no mods will be enabled at this time as soon as the addon is updated then you will be able to run them with any mod you wish.

First (without mods) update your server to 1.9 -> Note this will not currently work with the addon.

Then in your default.dspl add..

note> "test" will be the name given by you to the .dsr that you create for these maps. I have left out the maps from DLC 1 due to not many either seem to like them nor have them.

You can choose any game mode for these maps just create the .dsl that you require.

mp_aground_ss,test,4
mp_courtyard_ss,test,4
mp_dome,dome,4
mp_carbon,carbon,4
mp_plaza2,arkaden,4
mp_mogadishu,Bakaara,4
mp_paris,resistance,4
mp_bootleg,bootleg,4
mp_alpha,lockdown,4
mp_village,village,3
mp_hardhat,hardhat,4
mp_lambeth,fallen,4
mp_radar,outpost,2
mp_bravo,mission,4
mp_underground,underground,3
mp_seatown,seatown,4

For those with home servers (1.9) that want to test this simply copy from your updated 1.9 game to your server .. dir: (zone/dlc)
mp_aground_ss.ff
mp_aground_ss_load.ff
mp_courtyard_ss.ff
mp_courtyard_ss_load.ff
0.sdm ...dir.(main)

To test just login to your server via rcon and type map mp_aground_ss

NOTE: 16 maps is all that you seem to be allowed in rotation so you will have to disable a couple of maps to add these.

Included is a .dsr with infected and these 2 maps included in rotation.
Nice work, thanks man Smile
But why it works only with your 'test.dsr' ? With my own .dsr Files it wont works...
OR just use the HLDSupdatetool to update your server. Add the map names to your dspl file and restart.

No need to go through all that hoopla, and no need to download anything. It is pretty simple and straight forward. If they are running it off their home computers, those maps come up in the setup list anyways.
Why the extra "_ss" after the new maps? Is that necessary?
are there even enough spawnpoints on those faceoff maps to properly play 18 player infected?
arent ppl spawning inside eachother?
not work. map not loaded

so you either need to download via the update tool or you don't need to download anything? you can't have it both ways.

by home computers i meant those that test the mods like me via a lan not everyday players, of course they don't need to do anything as the update is done auto through steam.

No idea what version you are using, this is for 1.9 at this time.

maybe pieter only way is to test it with a full server, i have been already informed that the spawns are abit of a mess.
