Custom signs online ?

Post by AutomanUK »

OK am new to this track building malarkey so please bare with me here if I'm not explaining myself well enough.

Basically I have created a few track using the standard blocks and tools in the editor which I have then added to my Stadium server "Shaguar" (so far so good) but....

I would like to spruce them up by adding a few direction arrows on corners, that kind of thing and have downloaded a few via maniapark which I placed in the maniaplanet/items/common folder.... again all good they show up and I can place them and save/validate the tracks no problem and play it locally.

Now my burning question.

How do I get these tracks to work online if I add them to the server it barfs when trying to load the custom signs saying they aren't in the common folder :x I tried adding the custom arrows to the userdata/items/common folder on the server but it still throws up the same error when trying to load a track that has them.

Please please please give me some guidance here guys as I'm at a loss as to what to try next :(

Custom signs have to be in ManiaPlanet\Skins\Any\Advertisement for example these http://tm.mania-exchange.com/threads/17 ... 20?page=-1. To see them online very sign needs a .loc file, like the ones i linked.

If you are talking about objects like this http://www.maniapark.com/ressource.php?id=1812 they go in ManiaPlanet\Items but you need a titlepack which includes this objects to play a map online. Embedding objects is possible now but only if the object is less then 150Kb.
