Maps vanishing off the skirmish menu

Post by CopperWire »

Apparently Q3 has a limit to the maps it can display. Unacceptable. I need a fix. I play Elite Force and it doesn't do this. I don't need or want more Q3 installs to take up harddrive space, let alone that I couldn't remember which install had which maps. I hate the naming (somethingdm#) because you can't bloody remember them unless they show up in the skirmish menu. Heck, I'll say it again: I require a bloody fix.

Thank you, folks.

DeFrag's tricks menu shows ALL maps, but they don't come up in the VQ3 or CPM menus... none at all. What is the error?

A hard-coded limit in VQ3 and a custom UI in Defrag. Though 'error' is putting it a little strong. UI Enhanced might be your thing.

Nope. It's easily fixable but you'd never see the change when running in pure mode.

Not at all what I meant. Defrag has three menus: VQ3, CPM and tricks. Every single map shows up in the tricks menu but none show up in VQ3 or CPM menus.

And your UI Enhanced link does not work. I'll try to find it.

Well, I can't get http://www.quakeunity.com to load at all. I Yahoo'd quake 3 UI Enhanced and got q3arena.com, but the file was uploaded back in 2001 and I thought there might be something newer.

How is this not a custom UI?

PS: The UIE link works for me.
