The updates are emailed to the same address that the original was sent to. Check your spam folder. If you didn't get it, send me a PM.

 

That's a server bug, so there's nothing I can do about it. If you make the changes manually, without the plugin even running, it will do the same thing. Complain to DICE.

Went to edit a map list and as I changed gametypes from sqdm to large conquest the plugin would drop the name of any of karkand maps and change them to Grand Bazaar.

 

Not sure what steps are need to get things back the way they should be but it fixed itself last time it did this.

Attachment 1205

 

If for example are 8 players on the server, the plugin is waiting till the map/mode is over and switching to maplist_1.

But if maplist_1 is running and some players are leaving and only 6 players are on the server, maplist_0 is not loading after the map/mode is over.

I dont want to force map switching immediatly, I´d like to wait till the map round/mode is over ...

 

This is the plugin log:

You can see that UltimateMapManager detect the end of the round but didn´t switch to maplist_0.

The next map of maplist_1 is loading ...

 

If I use the option "Switch to new map list immediately_" = Yes ... then maplist_0 is loading fine.

You can see it also in the log:

I´m using the latest procon version and ultimate map manager 1.1.0.2

 

I also cant find this option: "Do not restart if more than this number of players is online" ?

None of the Karkand maps are available in Conquest Large except Gulf of Oman. The rest are Assault64.

The plugin doesn't change the map list until 50 seconds after it says "Need to change to Map List X", so you didn't provide enough of the log for me to tell anything. You also didn't include any PRoCon console logs.

 

Please refer to the "Support" section of the first post.

-maplist 0 from: 0-16 players.

-maplist 1 from: 10-32 players.

 

Now when maplist 0 reaches 16 players, the list changes correctly to map list 1 after the round.

But the other way around it doesn't change. When the server drops to 0 players it doesn't change maplist. In your video you said that when it reaches 0 players, the list will be changed anyway, even if you don't have the "Switch to new map list immediately" enabled (which I haven't). The weird thing is that it does change the name to the one I gave to maplist 0.

Can you help please

Got ya... My procon just doesnt differentiate between them that way...if i load a karkand map as large conquest it plays conquest assault

A little example:

With 10-15 players there is a mode with a" custom normal preset": the only change is "vars.gameModeCounter 350"

When the server switch to 16-32 players the server return to "normal preset", and tickets are always 350% ... maybe because there isn't "vars.gameModeCounter 100" in the normal preset (who is Read Only).

 

 

I have one request for you, is it possible to switch to another maplist at the end of the map, not the round 1/2 or 1/3 but the last round of the map ?

 

Why ? because I fill the server with SQDM and pull it up to 32 players. I know there is a bug when you overload the server with some game mode. But is doesn't affect the case when you change the rounds, it's only when the server is changing the map.

 

Maybe someone can confirm ?

If that's the case, then all of your PRoCon files are not up to date. Most likely, the problem is your BF3.def file. I'd recommend re-downloading PRoCon and ensure that BF3.def is updated.

Yes, I can confirm that "vars.gameModeCounter" is not included in the default presets, because changing this value does not affect the status of your server in Battlelog. If you need to change back to 100%, simply add another custom preset with "vars.gameModeCounter 100" and use that instead of the "Normal" preset.

 

I don't understand your second request. Overloading SQDM isn't a problem. The problem occurs when you have 32 players on a server, then switch to a map list with SQDM maps in the rotation.

I have one simple question, depended on my yesterday experience. My server was loosing player very fast so the plugin noticed that. The Servername changed its name but not its maplist. The server was empty before the round was ended. (We change between mixed and tdm.) Finaly the server is allways in conquest mode, waiting for players. Only a forced mapchange changed the servers mapmode to tdm and the other maplist

 

The log only says:

Info -> Round ended

Task -> 6 players. Need to changeto Map List 0 (the tdm one)

2 minutes later

Info -> Round ended

Task -> 0 players. Need to changeto Map List 0 (the tdm one)

 

This morning after forcing a mapchange:

Info -> Next round requested.

Work -> Setting server preset to Hardcore

Work -> Changing to Map List 0

Info -> Next round requested.

 

Any suggestions?

can i bypass this server bug? gametacker will show max 24 players when on first maplist, then 32 on the other maplist (as well as procon)?

I don't understand your second request. Overloading SQDM isn't a problem. The problem occurs when you have 32 players on a server, then switch to a map list with SQDM maps in the rotation.

MapList 0 (SQDM):

 

Minimum number of players:0

Maximum number of players:15

 

MapList 1 (Rush/conquest):

 

Minimum number of players:16

Maximum number of players:32

 

 

if I want orverload the server in SQDM, before switching to maplist rush/conquest mode.

 

if I have 18 players only in the round round 1/2 with the maplist 0, but I don't want to switch to maplist 1 at the end of the round. I just want to continue to the round 2/2, and for the next map change I will have more players on the server to switch on the preset rush conquest.

This is normal condition. If you reduce the player limit due an entry in the maplist (TDM max 24p) the Server is always at 24. If you have a 32 slot server, create a custom preset eg dending on Hardcore and add vars.maxPlayers 32 if you an 32 Slot Server.

i don't understand what are you suggesting!

 

 

i want to know if with this plugin i can bypass this server bug, switching the maplists!

 

if it can resolve, i will donate 5 dollars

I'll add it to the list. I can't promise anything soon.

This plugin doesn't have anything to do with the number of players, so that's fine.

That option only appears if you enable the "restart immediately" option.
