Question

How can I generate a complete list of my server's maps?

Answer

This procedure takes about 2 minutes to complete 1) Log onto your Server Click on Start --> Run Type in the Open: field, cmd This opens the old MsDos Prompt Window 2) Switch to your map directory by typing in its location and hit Enter It should look something like this, cd C:\YourGameServerName\dod\maps (if you dont know it, right click on the map directory, select properties and copy and paste the line you see in Location) 3)Then copy and paste this line into the command line dir *.bsp /L /B >filelist.txt Enter This will generate a list of ALL .bsp files in the map directory as a file called filelist.txt The list gives the names of all maps with the .bsp extension. Remember, the maplist.txt file can not be read with the bsp extension in the name 4) To remove all the .bsp extensions in one step, simply open filelist.txt with Notepad Click on Edit in the toolbar Select Replace Type in the Find What: field, .bsp Leave Replace with: field empty Click on Replace All button. Done 5) Save the final document as maplist.txt and paste into the server root dod directory Thanks to [I&S] Pvt_John for this slick trick. :)
