Yes, update your BF4.def file.

It's not help.

Can you help with this?

You need to update your BF4.def file on both your Layer and client Procon.

Votemap and Ultimate map manager not work correctly.

Reboot your clients and layers. Make sure the def file is updated on both your client and your layer while the layer is offline.

For instance I'd like Zavod Graveyard to always be a choice as people are enjoying playing it, but I'm not sure if they want to play it over and over again - it would be nice to give them the choice though

Make sure to save it as a .def, some people's computers don't like github raw and default to .txt

Or use the update function from your Procon Client.

Tools -> Check for Updates

 

If you are also using a Layer, make sure you then copy the BF4.def to your layer and restart the layer.

 

There has also been an update to the English & German localization files (au.oc & de.loc in localization folder). You might want to copy these to your layer as well.

It would be nice if there was a way for clients to trigger layer definition file updates. Or if there was a config for layers to optionally update their own def files automatically.

Isn't that already working? Or doesn't that work for layers?

Hello all. We are running this plugin and it used to work perfectly. Now this is what we are getting:

First, it doesn't show the maps to vote on, but displays "type 1/,2/ in chat to vote". Then says voting ended with failed results. The maps won't show up.

 

Secondly, my admins us !votemap but says they don't have permissions when they do?

 

I disabled it and enabled it and checked all the settings. Is this a known bug or anything? Thanks in advance for any help given.

 

Note, we are hosting AdKats and Multibalancer. Both of those are working as they should for now.

 

 

EDIT: SORRY! I just read that I need to update the BF4 file. I'll try the steps you provided when I get home from work.

It does not work with my layers. That only work with Procon on my home computer, but my layers require me to manually update the new files.

Are you with Fragnet?

 

EDIT: Well, if you are with Fragnet, you go to GameServers and then click on update Battlefield 4 Def. Files. Simple.

 

I removed the night map and my server went back to normal and stayed full all night! Seems this night operations patch/update messed up a few things. We're just not going to run that map. Well, have a good one and I hope this helped someone. Take care.

EDIT: This has now stopped working all together. It's like it turned itself off. It used to run all day and night but some nights it doesn't even work for us. No voting options even shows up.

 

Can anyone help me with this? Maybe an update or something? This is a BF4 server.

This plugin does not have internal map definitions, it uses the ones procon provides. Update your BFHL.def file if the maps have been added there.

Yes, as Cleaner stated, update your files. Always!

 

As for the maps, again like he said, Procon has a list of maps in the Map List tab. In that tab, whatever maps you add to your list is what the vote map plugin will initiate. Be sure to check your randomness so it gives you the maps that haven't been played in a while. Players most of the time don't want to play a map more than 2 times in 2 hours, ya know? Hope this helps you any.

Yeah I noticed the plugin now reads the .def file as opposed to how it used to be.

 

I have to keep updating my .def file in my procon on my PC but the new maps keep disappearing in the lists?

You have to update it on the layer and your client.

Had already done that even before Fragnet issued an update.

Will double check and upload manually and see if it solves the issue.

Before I add some maps does this also work with Squad Heist or does the mode still need to be added?

Same goes for game modes, it is based on your .def file.

Which line in the code can be edited so only 1 map per line is shown in chat window...

at the moment there is 2 maps per line shown, making the chat window garbled for voting.

 

I usually use 4 map choices for the vote, would fit the chat window nicely at 1 map per line.

 

Thx

When people join a server it is because they want to play the map currently running. So its a good idea to don't cycle if no one votes.
