When I try to spdevmap from cmd.exe, wolfsp stops and after pressing esc key the followin error pops up.


This is the command line. Of couse "\spdevmap sp-test" works fine if I launch wolfsp w/o any parameter and bring down console then type manually.

Am I missing any parameters?

is there a particular reason for adding the fs_basepath and fs_game commands?

that error message means you're being too anal

Before this post I've already tested without fs_basepath and fs_game arguments, but it didn't work, either.

While I wrote this comment, just hit on this.
Should I launch wolfsp.exe within the same directory with it?
My batch file lies in c:\batch\dev.bat.
And the command above was executed in this directory, which inevitably requires "fs_basepath"

Jesus!
My assumption was right.
Just pushd C:\wolf werked.

How messy wolfsp.exe is!

Actually it's *you* trying to be too clever (as 4days was polite enough to point out!).

If you're trying to launch the game to test a custom SP map then you most certainly don't need to do all of that to get it to work and having the batch file *outside* your development directory is the reason why it's causing problems; that *should* be inside the dev folder being used to build your SP level to which you just create a simple shortcut to execute (or click itself).

It's essential to achieve seamless dev environment to launch wolf just after compiling.
On top of that q3map2 requires fs_basepath anyway.
And other games such as stvoy.exe, jk2sp.exe and sof2sp.exe are more generous.

oh boy.
