Basic LAN Play

[Guest]

I'm running Windows Vista, so if that will cause any issues with running a server, then I can stop ripping out my hair.

I have tried everything I have read and I *CANNOT* get a map to load to save my life.

I have setup the acl and accounts files, I've logged in successfully, I've hit 'p' to load the admin panel, but after that I am lost, I've tried loading a map file or two, but nothing happens.

Also, are there any pre-configured config files I can download and use to run a basic "LAN party" server scenario?

i suggest you to login as an admin and then use /changemode or /changemode

And please give me a bit more information, does your screen stay black when you join? if so it means that now gamemode is running so use the commands i mentioned before.
