How to setup the mapvote step by step

1. Compile the mod with the black ops mod tool

2. Copy the Compiled mod.ff file in your Directory %localappdata%\Plutonium\storage\t5\mods\YOURMODNAME (Exemple: ..\mods\mp_mapvote, ..\mods\funserver)

3. Copy the Content of the mapvote.cfg in your .cfg (Exemple: server.cfg, dedicated_mp.cfg, dedicated.cfg, etc ) file that manages the Server.

4. Edit the Dvars to setup the Server, many Dvars are only for Aesthetic Parameters.

   • set the Dvar mv_maps to decide the maps that will be shown in mapvote, Example:
     • set mv_maps "mp_array mp_cracked mp_crisis mp_firingrange mp_duga mp_hanoi mp_cairo mp_havoc mp_cosmodrome mp_nuked mp_radiation mp_mountain mp_villa mp_russianbase"
   • set the dvar mv_enable to 1 if you want have it active on your server.
   • If you want random gametypes you have to set the dvar mv_gametypefiles specifying the gametype .cfg file name. Exemple:
     • set mv_gametypes "@@"
   • to specify the gamemode name you need also to the fine the gamemode name by editing the dvar mv_gametypenames
     • set mv_gametypenames "dm@tdm@sd"

   mv_gametypefiles and mv_gametypes must have the same number of @ symbols. The elements on mv_gametypefiles
   are linked to the element in mv_gametypenames

5. Copy the mapvote.gsc and put it %localappdata%\Plutonium\storage\t5\scripts\

6. Run the Server and have fun. Done!

4. Rebuild the mod with the Black ops mod tool
