I was wondering if someone could point out where i went wrong with my .pk3 ? Also any constructive criticism on the map itself as well would be fine,
Ive searched though the forums, and google'd alot, and cant see any obvious reason it doesnt show in the menu
http://blooddonor.orconhosting.net.nz/q ... quared.pk3 is the file... its 191 KB now

Get rid of the "single" gametype in your gametypes list in the .arena file. That should fix it (at least, it did here)

Map names cannot be more than 16 characters in length. You want to rename your .map/.bsp to ocffa1.bsp
Once you do this, and rename your levelshot file to match, everything will work.

Ok, i changed the sky (renamed all the files and rebuilt the .pk3 file to
http://blooddonor.orconhosting.net.nz/q ... ocffa1.pk3 and now it doesnt show up, and i must be looking too closely at it for too long as i cant see why

Perhaps double check your .arena file.
Right now it shows:
Code: Select all
{
map "bloodbathsquared"
bots "Angel Biker Bitterman Daemia"
longname "Blood Bath Squared"
fraglimit "30"
type " ffa single"
}
1) Remove space before "ffa"
2) Change map value to filename.
