Yes, I've searched the forum before I did this.

Renegade Free Dedicated Server v1.037 BH-838 01/23/2003 - 10:59:26
Console mode active
File svrcfg_cnc.ini - Error:
         Map file 'Virtual-Westwood-Museum-Mod' not found

Error - server settings file 'svrcfg_cnc.ini' contains errors - aborting
** Press any key to continue **



svrcfg_cnc.ini


I took Cat's suggestion here

Then try deleting both out of it, at least scripts.dll and see if
it still crashes.


Note: It doesn't crash. It just gives that error. :/

EDIT: Oh and YES I DID EXTRACT THE .PKG FILE TO THE DATA FOLDER.

AFAIK is a level file not LDD but LSD so make it like this:
Quote:


;
; This is the name of the first map in the map cycle.
;
;MapName=C&C_Field.mix

MapName=vm_thetwotowers.lsd
MapName00=vm_thetwotowers.lsd



(Also i would change mapname to mapname00 and mapname00 to mapname 01 like this, but i don't know if this matter)

It was .lsd to begin with. I changed it to .ldd because of another post I read here...but that didn't work. :/

I think you're supposed to add Modname=blabla.pkg somewhere

edit:

; Set ModName to load a custom MOD package. All clients who join the server
; will need to have the MOD package also.
;
; ModName=ModTest.pkg

ModName=

Have you tried making the pkg name shorter? There could be a limit to how many characters Renegade supports in a .pkg filename. And no, LevelEdit probably wouldn't warn you about it when saving the file, because it's a bit daft like that sometimes Razz

Wouldn't you have to re-export it from Leveledit to change the name? :/

In any case, not my fault on the length of the name. :@

Not sure for a pkg mod, since it's just a wrapper around a group of maps changing the name *might* not break it, but I wouldn't like to say for sure. Try it and see.

Is the game title blank on purpose for this post?

Another thing, you should be running .lsd for .pkg mods.

Good point. the same is when you name your server like 'BLABLA{AOW}' The server won't work with '{}' (or atleast nobody can join xD )

EDIT: Try to replace all '-' with '_' (without the quotes Razz )

ok, will make the 0.31b including some bugfixes this weekend.

for this purpose one important question:

why is it necessary, to copy a edited cameras.ini into the renegade/data folder???

why it is NOT enough, to have the edited ini in the mod pgk-file???

Because cameras.ini is read once and only once when Renegade starts up. It's not re-read for every map loaded (or in this case, pkg)
