Display a map as Attack/Defend... NOT Control Points

The alpha for my map is displayed as Control Points when I play on it, although it looks, plays and functions like (entities included) an Attack/Defend map. How do I change this? And how do I change the objective display?

"You are now headed to...
STAGNANT ALPHA6
Control Points"

^this =(

why is... my name fully capitalized? >.>
1) My name, Lyzak, is not fully capitalized.
2) My map name, STAGNANT ALPHA6, is not fully capitalized either, but the font used by TF2 makes all letters appear in capitals.

okay good

I meant the mapname, because if it's capitalized, it will crash linux servers.

That sucks ;_;

I can at least change the objectives though can't I?

Control Points and Attack/Defend use the same HUD. There should be nothing to change.

They use the same HUD, but they use different objectives:

"Be the first team to control all the control points to win"
vs
"Attacking team tries to capture all of the defending team's capture points"

and they have different map subtitles, as noted in the main post:

You are now headed to...
STAGNANT ALPHA6
Control Points (vs) Attack/Defend

It just looks more professional, that's all ;_;

Place a logic_auto entity. Under the outputs tab, add the following outputs:

OnMapSpawn > tf_gamerules > SetRedTeamGoalString > #Dustbowl_red_setup_goal
OnMapSpawn > tf_gamerules > SetBlueTeamGoalString > #Dustbowl_blue_setup_goal

Neither of the outputs will show as working, but they will work in game.

ah, you misunderstand me again.

I'm talking about the chalkboard-like display you see when you join a game, before you actually get into the game... usually right after the server's homepage display. This is where the movie for your map plays, and you see the map objectives and screenshots.

The game title and subtitle are present as you connect to the server (you would be looking at your stats, and the hint at the bottom. The title and subtitle are at the upper left)

I already have those goal strings, but thanks =)

Thanks anyways! =)
