Yea it works now i managed to dl it 6mb. This is the first time i am getting such funny stuff from filefront. I think it is cos i changed the name of the file to save as. Usually it works and i dl the 93 mb map the latest one by changing the zip name so i dont have to overwrite the old bhd map.

Anyone who was getting the invisible pistol, etc. Is it working correctly? I havent had a chance to check it yet, Ive been busy with classwork all day... I'm fairly certain thats what was needed... but yeah, let me know.

Dawn filefront works very bad. The server.zip I downloaded (6Mb) makes BF2 crash. After trying two times, I decided to download it again : one time it's a 547k file, another time 355k, another time 23k... 
Hope they will fix all of that soon

http://files.filefront.com/serverCORREC ... einfo.html there. i think i got it, i downloaded it and it is correct. i think the problem was me uploading the wrong file? although im not sure how that happened.
anyway, just, remove the "CORRECT" ending and overwrite the old server.zip in your Black_Hawk_Down folder...
Let me know as soon as you can if this works, otherwise, Drayu is willing to host it on his ftp server.

no. itd take too long to reupload the put together one.
i guess i can get on that right now though... itll mean taking down the BHD map that is currently up...

problem is, filefront takes forever to remove files, so it always gives me a message 3/4 into the upload saying its a duplicate file, when it shouldnt be... so, ill delete the current one, wait an hour, then upload the fixed one with the correct server zip...
god... i hate the internet

Opened it and checked init.con what on earth it says levels juan lopez and theres chinese vehicles in gameplay objects. Tried again this time i got something looking like counterstrike server files. I'll try again.
Got the same thing when I downloaded the new map and new server.zip. The map CTD early on loading it up. Then I just downloaded the map again without the server.zip this time and just edited the init.con with the spawning kits line.
You probably already know this or it is intentional. In the top right hander corner of the map, G1, H1, you can see these:

Just odd seeing a bunch of cars lined up and a some houses out there. This area should be more out of bounds.

Yeah, that area will be out of bounds, but it will eventually be more of a village with a road leading out to it.
28 minutes till the hopefully working full map is done.
but, if anyone wants to avoid the download/wait, just open up the server.zip, open the init.con file, and replace the whole init.con file with:

and then save. reopen the init.con to check and make sure it changed it (make sure the three lines concerning spawners are in there)
run ../../objects/common/spawners/spawners_common.con
run ../../objects/common/spawners/spawners_us.con
run ../../objects/common/spawners/spawners_meinsurgent.con
and you should be good to go.
or, extract the whole server.zip, replace the init.con text with the big one above, save, rezip, and overwrite the old one with the one you just made...
(this is turning into a big deal for something really little) lol... sorry.

oh, and youm0nt, the combat zones SHOULD be MUCH tighter, but since the gameplay stuff isnt updating/saving, it is still how i originally had it back in early august...
ill get on it with a bunch of long workarounds...

lol. easy tiger

... its my first map and its a LONG way from being how it should be.
The outside of the city, especially the northern (North east and Northwest) are currently on the bottom of my to-do list.
I dont know if I said earlier, but that area of houses will be a village with a road leading to it from the city. eventually, i want the city to sort of pan out and become some small villages that may or may not be included in the combat zones.
But, my top priority for now is trying to get it where I can place new object spawners/get AAS working/Shorten CP names/New Combat Zones. ALL of which I think are arising from the same problem. Which is: The fact that when I save in the editor, the gameplay objects files are not getting saved and updated. I think I need some Divine Intervention, AKA DEV help.

No. Unless you care to convince someone from the SP department to set-up all of the navmeshing for it.

I'll leave that to you, lol.
Honestly, give it a few more releases. MacNiell(sp?) said he'd navmesh it for SP/Coop, but taking into consideration that it takes time to navmesh and get a map SP ready, I will wait until I am certain I wont be updating too soon (like I have been recently)
Besides, Flags cant be captured yet, although, maybe this sunday I will work on it some. Tomorrow and Saturday Im busy celebrating my one year with my gf.

So i cant exactly ask if she wants to watch me edit maps in the bf2 map editor... can I?
