Q4 Map script

I have a q4 instagib server and am trying to run non stock maps on it. I have the lines

seta g_mapCycle ""
seta si_mapCycle "mp/q4ctf1;mp/stronghold;mp/shankq4ctf1;mp/q4ctf4;mp/duelingkeeps;mp/drach4t1"
seta si_map "mp/q4ctf4"

If i change eta si_map "mp/stronghold" or even "stronghold" then the server starts and does not run a map.

anyway help would be great.

the correct mapname that q4 needs for 'stronghold' is q4_q3ctf3

so if you replace 'mp/stronghold' with 'mp/q4_q3ctf3' in the si_mapcycle all should be well

an easy way to check the actual mapnames is to browse the pk4 with an archieve app like winrar - and take a peek in ./maps/mp/

Or, create a listen server while playing a map you like.. bring down the console and type "si_map".

the console will report the current value of si_map, in this case.. the 'actual' name of the map you're playing.
