I had great fun playing BF6 with some of my friends. Even though, I get mad when medics don't medic or no one takes out the enemy armour. That shit drives me insane!

ah okay, I see what you mean. Just having a look at the file you downloaded, having downloaded it myself, and I can see some of the issue. All you need to do really is rename the mp_slum.zip into mp_slum.iwd The .iwd file extension is important because that's what allows the folder to be read by the server - its like a custom archive format that CoD2 uses. When you do change the extension, Windows will say that it may break the file, ignore that. So you should instead have this instead: It's the same one you have, but just changing .zip to .iwd. Don't change anything in the file, all you need to do is change the extension. With it changed to .iwd all you need to do is pop that in the Main folder with the other .iwd files.

Good morning everyone! I've finished, packed and uploaded the new rotation to the TDM server (thanks as always for Loader to putting the packs on the redirect). You WILL need to remove (if you haven't already) CTF_SPR25 and CTF_SPR_25. Ideally, every rotation you should clear out your main folder. Here is the rotation: gametype tdm map mp_leningrad map trainwreck gametype ctf map mp_coddm3 gametype tdm map sksquare map mp_toujane map mp_nfactorys gametype ctf map mp_trainstation gametype tdm map sps_valle map mp_gob_rats map sps_toxic gametype ctf map mp_outlaw_showdown gametype tdm map mp_tukovi3 map mp_montargis_v2 map sps_el_embarcadero_f gametype ctf map mp_return_to_pavlov gametype tdm map mp_rds_s map mp_kalsingrad_v2 map lnl_hm2 gametype ctf map mp_sg_marketgarden gametype tdm map tl_convoy2 map mp_purg map mp_ifis_one gametype ctf map rnr_warehouse_beta2 gametype tdm map islands This time, I managed to get enough sniper maps to not have to repeat any or add them later on standard nades are here to stay, and I really appreciate the feedback and I am glad that people are enjoying them and oh boy do I love playing hot potato!

Hey Sgt, can you explain what it is you're after please? We have CTF on our CoD2 servers yes. Are you referring to how we set up CTF on our server or what mods we use? Sorry, it's just unclear on what you're looking for.

Always this when running old games. Always do this. I've never had a problem with steam, and I've been using it for about 12 years now - and the only issue I get is when it says steam can't be found. But that's just an easy fix to throw some Steam dll files in the games directory and its rare that happens. Sadly, you need Steam open to play Steam bought games, and as mine is open all the time its no bother to me. Honestly, Laz, if you get any issues with Steam just let me know. Getting CoD2 to run on Steam can be problematic as there is a chance you will run into a bug that makes CoD2 open to a blank screen and not load further but that's mostly due to a graphical bug and the game just needs rebooting

EDIT: Rotation fix, swapped out a broken map and some typos. Evening/Morning/Afternoon folks! New rotation is now going up on TDM. Packs are up, ready for download. Please note the following: You will NEED to delete these from your Main folder: CTF_SPR25 TDM_SPR25 SNP_25_02 SNP_SPR_25 If they are not removed you are likely to run into errors. Please also note, these packs may share maps with DM packs. If this is the case, please let me know and I'll see what I can do. Here is a list of the maps, the modes and the rotation: tdm: mp_winter mp_venice mp_web mp_slum mp_mareth mp_xfireb mp_panimo2 mtl_facility mp_vitebsk mp_valleystation ctf: mp_tobruk mp_neilos_night rnr_ravensville_beta2 fr_mogadishu_v3 mp_rts mp_kustov_station_final mp_coastal_guns mp_rasquert_final sniper: mp_sniperwolfv2 sps_snipers_town mp_sniper_benghazi mp_mortain em_central_station mp_vs sps_artic_island_f gametype tdm map mp_harbor map mp_sniperwolfv2 gametype ctf map mp_tobruk gametype tdm map sps_snipers_town_w map mp_winterv2 map mp_sniper_benghazi gametype ctf map mp_neilos_night gametype tdm map mp_mortain map mtl_facility map em_central_station gametype ctf map rnr_ravensville_beta2 gametype tdm map mp_vs map mp_web map sps_artic_island_f gametype ctf map fr_mogadishu_v3 gametype tdm map mp_sniperwolfv2 map mp_slum map mp_mortain gametype ctf map mp_rts gametype tdm map sps_snipers_town_w map map_valleystation map mp_sniper_benghazi gametype ctf map mp_kustov_station_final gametype tdm map mp_mortain map mp_panimo2 map mp_vs gametype ctf map mp_coastal_guns gametype tdm map sps_artic_island_f

Good evening all, once more I request a few moments of your time. Let it be known that I finally fixed the damn Spring rotation. I haven't been able to get to it because of work and my lack of good mental health (going back in to therapy) but I got myself to do it tonight. I have removed the offending map mp_bluesea and repaired the map pack. PLEASE NOTE: You will need to clear your CoD2 main folder of previous custom map packs until only the stock ones remain If you play on DM too, I will say you can leave those ones there, but please let me know of any further clashes. I will not be held responsible for you failing to clear out your CoD2 folder correctly either. I tend to name mine with the month first, then the game mode. This should prevent invalid .iwd clients; whilst I shouldn't have to remind people of this when I change a rotation, this one is partly on me for not saying when I changed the rotation. I've also colour coded this rotation, mostly for my own ease of viewing but you can see which maps are which modes at a glance. Sniper: mp_division map mhz_residence mp_codcasnipe_s1 SPS_valle_de_leire bunker_v mp_damvalley mp_cs_desert mp_shalkanv2 mhz_farm_f mp_cbs Run and Gun: mp_island_madness mp_dawnville mp_accona_desert mp_cdom mp_chateau_manor mp_curra_tuscany2 mp_glossi8 CTF: mp_ol_stalingrad_1942 mp_harbor mp_bassano mp_brewtown mp_devils_den_beta3 mp_dawnville mp_leningrad Here's the rotation: gametype tdm map mp_division map mp_island_madness map mhz_residence gametype ctf map mp_ol_stalingrad_1942 gametype tdm map mp_codcasnipe_s1 tdm map mp_dawnville map SPS_valle_de_leire gametype ctf map mp_harbor gametype tdm map bunker_v map mp_accona_desert map mp_damvalley gametype ctf map mp_bassano gametype tdm map mp_cs_desert map mp_cdom map mp_shalkanv2 gametype ctf map mp_brewtown gametype tdm map mhz_farm_f map mp_chateau_manor map mp_cbs gametype ctf map mp_devils_den_beta3 gametype tdm map SPS_valle_de_leire map mp_curra_tuscany2 map bunker_v gametype ctf map mp_dawnville gametype tdm map mp_damvalley map mp_glossi8 map mp_cs_desert gametype ctf map mp_leningrad Let me know if you run into any technical issues with the game and I'll see if I can help. Now, to go enjoy my friday..

So that'll be every map is on Window's list?

No worries! Said I'd get it done

Long overdue, I know, but I have now done the winter rotation which will be in play until January 2025. This rotation will also be updated over time in regards to feedback such as maps being taken out or maps added. There is plenty of space for some more maps, and there are some maps in these packs that was in the last rotation. You WILL need to remove the sniper pack from last rotation to get the new pack. Here is what is in the packs: WIN_24_CTF mp_winter_toujane (currently not in rotation) mp_rschew mp_industry mp_complex_v2 mp_belzec mp_arnhemv3 mp_alburjundi WIN_24_SNP ubunker trainwreck (in previous map pack) tl_convoy2 (in previous map pack) mp_villageruins_f mp_snipe_f_v2 hillsides (in previous map pack) had_onebridgetofar arena WIN_24_RG mp_island mp_depot_winter mp_clanfight mp_asylum2 WIN_24_RG2 mp_pecs mp_ol_stalingrad_1942 (not in rotation due to map issues) mp_montjean (not in rotation due to map issues) Co1_1 commando1_1 ROTATION: gametype tdm map mp_brecourt map arena3 gametype ctf map mp_alburjundi gametype tdm map mp_had_onebridgetofar_v2 map mp_asylum2 map hillsides gametype ctf map mp_arnhemv3 gametype tdm map mp_snipe_f_v2 map mp_clanfight_r map mp_villageruins_f gametype ctf map mp_belzec gametype tdm map tl_convoy2 map mp_depot_winter map trainwreck gametype ctf map mp_complex_v2 gametype tdm map ubunker map mp_commando1_1 map arena3 map mp_railyard gametype ctf map mp_industry gametype tdm map hillsides map mp_pecs map mp_snipe_f_v2 gametype ctf map mp_toujane gametype tdm map mp_villageruins_f As always, please keep me up to date with any issues so I can address them ASAP. You can always reach me through here, or if you have Steam, you can reach me on there.

I've been busy all week so I have not had the chance to check in on this one. I am glad that the changes we have trialled went well on Sunday, and I am all for seeing how it goes over an entire weekend. If anything crops up that comes to attention, I am hoping that it can be addressed swiftly and without issue!

Good evening folks, Just passing this your way but I am going to try a couple of things in the server as a trial I want to look at fixing the issue we have with Auto Balance. Currently, the server sets people into teams as soon as they join the server, and then scrambles it again in the next map; auto selecting peoples teams, even the spectators. What this means is that the server will try to auto balance spectators. The idea that I propose is to turn off the team auto-select, meaning that you can now choose your own teams. This stops the server from giving you a team automatically, and it should then stop the auto-balance not moving people around. However, there is a down-side to this; this will invite team stacking. People want to play with their mates, which is great and all but it can end up with teams being 6-4 etc. I would like to think that people have the decency to still choose auto select. To combat this inevitability, the server will check every 15 seconds if the teams are balanced and if not, it will move someone. Again, if it moves someone and they move themselves back to where they used to be, I will warn you. If you do it again, I will kick you. It may end up moving people all the time, but this is something I want to try out at least. This will be live for tomorrow, and will run for tomorrow to see how it goes. I have also added some new sniper maps to the server, which will break it up a bit more because I was using old maps from old rotations. Hope to see you all tomorrow!

I'm a twat and pressed the wrong button... here is the rotation!! I have also colour coded the rotation so you can see which maps are which modes set sv_mapRotation "gametype tdm map mp_toujane map tlotd_trainyard gametype ctf map mtl_pirates gametype tdm map SPS_Atalaya map arnhem map sps_free_port gametype ctf map mp_karkand_reboot gametype tdm map sps_cabewood_f2 map mtl_bismarck map em_central_station gametype ctf map fr_mogadishu_v3 gametype tdm map mp_tl_the_bunkers map mp_cus map mp_damvalley gametype ctf map mp_rouen gametype tdm map mp_cbs map mp_dock_assault map mp_codcasnipe_s1" set sv_mapRotation "gametype ctf mp_canal3 gametdm tdm map ifis_one map mp_emt map hillsides gametype ctf map Moh_Verschneit gametype tdm map icsl_village map mp_boysroom map tlotd_trainyard gametype ctf map mp_borisovka gametype tdm map SPS_Atalaya map mp_Argentan_France map sps_freeport gametype ctf map abbey2 gametype tdm map mp_cbs map gob_tozeur map ifis_one gametype ctf map alcohol gametype tdm map hillsides"

Another season, another rotation! As this year comes to a close soon, I've made one last rotation for this year into next year. I've somewhat pulled out a lot of stops and had to split the rotation in two because there are over 30 maps. I will swap each one every weekend. Here are the rotations, and the included maps: Snipers: tlotd_trainyard sps_atalaya sps_freeport sps_cabewood_f2 tl_the_bunkers mp_damvalley mp_cbs mp_codcasnipe_s1 ifis_one Hillsides/sniper icsl_village em_central_station CTF: mtl_pirates mp_karkand_reboot fr_mogadishu_v3 currahee_rouen mp_canal3 mp_island Moh_Verschneit Currahee_borisovka abbey2 bpu_alcohol TDM: mto_arnhem mtl_bismarck mp_cus mp_dock_assualt mp_emt mp_boysroom mp_Argentan_France lothringen_v1.3 Gob_tozeur Gob_rats dv1_moonbase Currahee_tuscany_ext_beta Please note that some of the listed maps are not in the rotations - they serve as backups should maps prove unpopular or one refuses to play nice.
