MVM Map Creation

Axl · Aug 18, 2012

Loading up the three official mvm maps in a listenserver works fine but when I try to load a custom, or the example map the console is telling me the server needs to be 32 players. How do you launch a listen server into 32 players and why would the official maps work? Strange.

Just use "maxplayers 32" before creating the server. The official maps also complain this for me.

How do I Zip the missions in with the map? I just popped them in and hoped for the best. Is there a certain folder it must 'go' in?

It would be a shame to make custom population files and not be able to use them :>

Could someone find out the average width/length of the play area of the mvm maps please. I don't have access to hammer atm, but want to start planning on paper. Thanks

I think the folder is resources/population. If you have GCFscape you can look inside the tf2 content gcf and search for .pop files to find their location if I'm wrong.

Is this what you were looking for? http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/List_of_item_attributes

Thanks but no, that's items_game.txt. The example made it sound like items_master.txt is a new file. If they meant to write items_game.txt instead of items_master.txt that should be fixed

Messing around with mvm_upgrades.txt it's very limited and I don't even know why it's there to be honest.

Also found out how to spawn money.

item_currencypack_custom does not give money, but there's an item they added but never used called item_currencypack_small that gives 5, also item_currencypack_medium and large.

you can't replace or add new attributes to upgrade?

i guess there's no way to interact with the map like tank rerouting and such, not big surprise
