Thanks, this is the error I'm receiving in my server log...

Code: Select all

Match settings file : MatchSettings\SMStormCombo.txt

Loading match settings...

...ERROR: The playlist file does not exist.
...Could not load the match settings

Server not started: no Maps available. Check your matchsettings!

Server not running, exiting.

Exiting...

The MatchSettings for combo is "MatchSettings/SMStormCombo1.txt"

We have done a guide on how to start a combo lobby : http://maniaplanet.github.io/documentat ... lobby.html

And my Server Command Line Config

Code: Select all

./ManiaPlanetServer /title=SMStormCombo@nadeolabs /game_settings=MatchSettings/SMStormCombo.txt /dedicated_cfg=dedicated_cfg.txt /nodaemon

You just miss the "1" at the end of the matchsettings file

I just tried to join via the link in the log (maniaplanet://#join=krackle17@SMStormCombo@nadeolabs) and it worked.

It can take several minutes to be displayed in the server browser.

Have you started manialive ? It's the only way (for now) to be displayed in the combo title.

[Krackle]

Thanks everything is working correctly.

This should be my last question, I just downloaded some new maps. What do I need to do to add them into the current map rotation?
