Title packs documentation

[oliverde8]

Hi, at the moment at eXpansion we get the title name from the dedicated server and use it in order to decide whatever we should load some plugins or not.
It would have been good if we could have the base name to base our decision on but we don't. so it would be nice if title packs contained the TM keyword in their Packaging name so that we can make the correct decision.

I would like to get the opinon of you guys that actually create those titles as I have nearly no knowledge on the subject.

Oliverde, you could solve this by reading it from the Mapobject of the current map (the environment).

Ooo thanks a lot, didn't thought of that at all

This topic should be renamed, better name for it could be Title pack documentation.
By looking at its name i thought here are posted new title packs, but it is not.

i would like to request that the menu style xml is included automatically if it's a local file

Code: Select all

<menu_style name=""/>

currently you have to add it to the files section manually

How does the default UI on a station work? I don't think that the documentation explains it.
In my case,
- the solo and multiplayer buttons aren't displayed
- the help button doesn't show any text

- the solo and multiplayer buttons aren't displayed
- the help button doesn't show any text

for that you need to maintain the information about the title on the player page

Thanks for the info.

Can I change the title Id of the titlepack without losing ladder, download etc?

Does anybody know how to use the "datapack" element inside the ManiaPlanetTitle.xml?

Code: Select all

<solo>
<datapack name=""/>
</solo>

I want to hide some mods and car skins, so they are not selectable in the editor/profile.

I zipped the files using this folder structure into DataPack.zip:
Skins\Stadium\Mod\dummy.zip
Skins\Vehicles\StadiumCar\dummy.zip

Then I paced the DataPack.zip in my Titel Pack folder:
Packs\Test@electron

Finally I entered the location of the ZIP to the ManiaPlanetTitle.xml:

Code: Select all

<solo>
<datapack name="DataPack.zip"/>
</solo>

But the Pack manager doesn't found the files / include them properly into the package folder structure.
