Switching Campaigns?

Postby ollie27 » Tue Jun 10, 2008 8:22 pm

Love the game BTW but one problem I've found is that switching campaigns is way too complicated.
I mostly play singleplayer cos i can't get online most of the time so the campaigns are great.

Anyway when you start up you can only play through one campaign and there is one more included in the main data pk3 which you can select if you set g_campaign_name to "mappack" instead of just "". Also i've got mappack_r2 and when that is installed it sort of replaces the original "mappack". Anyway to switch between them the easiest way seems to be to move the mappack.pk3 so it loads the included one.

The point is it would be so much easier if:
1. The three campaigns had decent and different names to use for g_campaign_name
2. You could select between them in a nice menu

PS: I'm running Nexuiz 2.4.2

Well, the feature mainly was not included in the menu rewrite because I thought there wasn't any demand for it - after all, the only alternate campaign was the one of the q3mappack, and that still hasn't been updated for Nexuiz 2.4 anyway.

Making the menu able to switch campaigns wouldn't be too hard - but I don't have time for it now. Maybe later, or someone else.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.
