Hello, while playing CTF, I found a map that liked (mmkitch_v1r3). Is there a way for me to start a server, enter in it's name (or name of any other map I like), and play with that level?

Thank you.

if you mean playing the map by yourself to get to know it better , then just place the pk3 in your nexuiz/data folder . start up nexuiz and go to create tab then look in the ctf tab . there you should find mmkitch . click it and set a modifier if you want , press start .

alternatively , you can place it in data then open your console with ( ~ ) key . then type chmap mmkitch_v1r3 or howerver the pk3 is spelled out .

Thank you so much! I'm going to test that out right now.

Edit: I can't find the pk3, any ideas where it might be? Is there a way to just go and download the pk3 file?

Second edit: I also found this:

Downloaded packages end up in |Nexuiz/data/dlcache/| or
|~/.nexuiz/data/dlcache/| and are only used till you exit Nexuiz.
If you want to play them localy or use them to setup a server of your
own you can "accept" the packages by moving it one level up - right
next to your config.cfg.

You should regularily clean up your cache to save space and make the maps
you really want available from the menu.

I have no idea how to use those features.

i have no clue on how to work a server for public play . but to test a map locally you can copy and paste a map from dlcache into data . sry i ddnt think of that earlier . dlcache is where all download from nexuiz game go .
it is possible to manually download maps and add them to data or the download cache
also , sometimes maps wont be in pk3 format . simply rename the zip or rar file extension pk3

here are 2 map repos

What's the difference between "map" and "chmap"? Does it really matter?

"map" restarts the server (and in the process, kicks all players), "chmap" just changes the map.

Only with "map", the variable "maxplayers" can be changed.

Thank you so much guys, I found the map I wanted on that site plus more, and know how to use them. Thanks!

Does chmap = gotomap?

I never vcalled chmap because I didn't know what it did besides change the map, if anything.

Chmap is an alias to gotomap
