I followed Tean's tutorial on adding multiple maps to one addon folder exactly, yet when I load the game, only one of the maps shows up. (It's a space map, which may or may not be relevant) I noticed that in both the conversion pack and Mav's map pack (can't remember the name) that the folder in LVL_PC with the matching three letter name as the addon folder's name had a lvl file in it, while mine did not.

I'll post my related files, though I've checked them over several times myself.

addme.lua

Hidden/Spoiler:

[code]--Search through the missionlist to find a map that matches mapName,

--then insert the new flags into said entry.

--Use this when you know the map already exists, but this content patch is just

--adding new gamemodes (otherwise you should just add whole new entries to the missionlist)

function AddNewGameModes(missionList, mapName, newFlags)

	for i, mission in missionList do

		if mission.mapluafile == mapName then

			for flag, value in pairs(newFlags) do

				mission[flag] = value

			end

		end

	end

end

--insert totally new maps here:

mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

In addition, all the map's mission req files are in ...\data_***\Common\mission, all the script folders are in ...\data_***\Common\scripts, and all the folders from each map's LVL_PC are in \addon\***\data\_LVL_PC.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I didn't look over your addme too hard, but part of the reason might be off the tack you're thinking - do you have my KotOR Galactic Conquest installed? You've used the same three-letter map code for your "Space Kamino" (I assume) that I used for the KotOR space map (SK1). This can mess up whatever else might appear.

Ok, well I re-munged all my maps and re-replaced the folders in LVL_PC, and that worked. I have no explanation for that or why it worked, but I'm just glad I fixed it.

EDIT: Crap, never mind. I had left the maps themselves in the addon folder, and that's the only reason it worked.

EDIT2: I put the map pack onto a clean Battlefront II with no additional mods installed, and I'm still getting just Space Kamino showing up on the map selection screen.

Ha I know your problem, space kamino is only showing up because it is the last one.

The addme lua is using sp_n to add maps to the table. Unfortunately, you are using the same value of sp_n everytime you call a different map, so all it is doing is overwriting over and over until kamino stays.

So to fix, put:

Code: Select all

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

Before each map is added.

Like this:

Hidden/Spoiler:

--insert totally new maps here:

local sp_n = 0

local mp_n = 0

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { isModLevel = 1, mapluafile = "RV1%s_%s", era_c = 1, mode_con_c  = 1,}

mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents) --added these

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { isModLevel = 1, mapluafile = "SL1%s_%s", era_c = 1, mode_con_c  = 1,}

mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents) --added these etc

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { isModLevel = 1, mapluafile = "YA1%s_%s", era_c = 1, mode_con_c  = 1,}

mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { isModLevel = 1, mapluafile = "KA1%s_%s", era_c = 1, mode_con_c  = 1,}

mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { isModLevel = 1, mapluafile = "MU1%s_%s", era_c = 1, mode_con_c  = 1,}

mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { isModLevel = 1, mapluafile = "XA1%s_%s", era_c = 1, mode_con_c  = 1,}

mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { isModLevel = 1, mapluafile = "JN1%s_%s", era_c = 1, mode_con_c  = 1,}

mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { isModLevel = 1, mapluafile = "SK1%s_%s", era_c = 1, mode_assault_c = 1,}

mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

Im 98% sure that's what the issue is, for I had the same problem with battle arena and hoth king of the hill.

Where is this tutorial?

Posted: **Thu Jan 01, 2009 5:48 pm**

Thanks Rep, that worked perfectly.

Posted: **Thu Jan 01, 2009 9:33 pm**

For less code, you could have also just did sp_n+1, then sp_n+2, then sp_n+3, etc...
