Okay so I set up a custom server using

The server works fine and a friend and I can both connect and play on it together, but when I selected my costume map (which is a .bsp file in the maps folder) the server command prompt says "map load failed: koth_roughtops_a1 not found or invalid" and when I try to join the server steam says it is not responding.

The only thing I can think of (since I am pretty new to mapping) is that I did not compile my map correctly.

If anyone can let me know how to tell if my map is compiled correctly or knows what do for the server that would be much appreciated

thanks


[update] I downloaded the costum koth map colony from this website and tried doing that map on the server and it also did not work. So, I am assuming the problem is with the server. Is there any other way that the server could be locating files? Maybe I just need to set up a server using a different method?

UPDATE: SOLVED it myself

If the map works when you open it on your own PC and not connected to any server, then it very very likely isn't the issue.
