Hi guys,

so i have a little problem with my shootmania server. a few month ago i already had two shootmania elite server installed and running. everything was fine.

after the latest patch i wanted to reinstall the servers, i reinstalled them, started them, everything was fine so far, but here comes the problem.

when the server starts, it says :
Match settings file : MatchSettings\SMStormElite1.txt

[2013/05/14 14:47:27] Loading map Elite - WindOfChange.Map.Gbx (uiS9Q7DcDLCfC82LqQVgys6pGRj)...
[2013/05/14 14:47:27] ...Load succeeds
[2013/05/14 14:47:27] Script 'Mode:Elite': 1105> Successfully loaded online settings
the problem is the matchsetting file, the server does not load my matchesetting file, it is loading the default file with the default settings and mappool.

i dont know why, if i delete @nadeolabs in the title, the whole server want load because auf an "unkown title" issue.

this is very strange for me because it works fine before.

i really hope you can help me guys

You just need to give the name of your matchsettings when you launch the server.

i did, it doesnt work, the name of my matchsettingsfile is SMStormElite1.txt, the server says that t he settings were loaded, but they didnt, it is the default mappool, and the default matchsettings, the settings and maps in my SMStormElite1.txt file are totally different

It's also the same name of the default matchsettings file. Try to change the name of your file.

when i change the matchsettings file, for example in SMStormElite2.txt

the following happen:
[2013/05/14 15:35:14] Match settings file : MatchSettings\SMStormElite2.txt
[2013/05/14 15:35:14] Loading match settings...
[2013/05/14 15:35:14] ...ERROR: New mode unknown.
...Could not load the match settings
[2013/05/14 15:35:14] Server not started: no Maps available. Check your matchsettings!
[2013/05/14 15:35:14] Server not running, exiting.
[2013/05/14 15:35:15] Exiting...
again, i dont understand this issue, before the patch i had no problems with this :/

Can you put your matchsettings file?

I think you used some custom files with the same name of default files and they have been modified with the update.

I've splitted the topic as this is a problem which "needs" its own topic and not somewhere in a post about documentation.
