I need newbie help with scripts

[jaredm]

I am confused on how to implement user-created scripts. I've downloaded a team deathmatch script (http://www.maniapark.com/ressource.php?id=987) but every time I try to load it in storm I get an error saying "Error:Incorrect File Name"

I've tried multiple scripts and they all return the same error.

what am I missing - it's probably something really simple.

Do you click on "download" or on "maptype" ?
The main script from "download" is used to play the mode while the "maptype" one is used to create maps for this gamemode.

Thanks for responding. I've downloaded both, but on the select script menu, I just select the file from the download. Do I need to put the maptype file in a specific location?

I have no idea what could be the issue so I'll ask you questions that could be the reason of this problem

• Are you in the Shootmania Storm title ?
• Did you save the file with the ".Script.txt" extension ?
• Are you loading it in the local server creation place or it's for a dedicated server (or another place) ?

• Are you in the Shootmania Storm title ?

I am in the Storm Title, trying to create a local server. Under the Server Parameters, I have the game mode "script" selected. Under that, I click on the script and try to select the deathmatch.script and hit open and a small box pops up saying invalid file type. I've tried to manually add a .txt to the script but then it won't show up in selection box.

Thanks for helping out with this

Make sure that extensions are visible : how to show extension
Then make sure that the file is named ".Script.txt" (maybe there's two ".txt" at the end).

If the problem persists, I'm sorry, but I don't know what is the problem

but I'm using the beta client to test this out?
