HELP! How to add maps?

[Robis]

Hello, i have a problem.

Can someone teach me how to add maps to my MTA server, cause im newbie, i want to learn.

Add it to installed server..

Hello, you can put all of your maps in the "C:\MTA Server\mods\deathmatch\resources" directory. But I advice you to create another folder inside the "deathmatch" one called "[maps]" and put all of your maps there, it's more organized  And remember, you can have as many folders as you want inside the "deathmatch" one as long as they have those brackets []. If they have brackets you can put other normal folders inside of them and for MTA it's no difference, but for people it's more clear and easy to find where things are.

Here's my server for example:

As you see I have a seperate folder for all of my scripts and a seperate one for all of my maps. Inside those there are the actual script or map folders

No, all maps get loaded automatically, no need to add maps to mtaserver.conf.

You add just scripts to that file if you want them to auto-start with your server.

 

About maps, download a race map from the internet and you'll see what they have  Yes, the most basic maps have a meta.xml, name.map and some editor .lua files.

Well, i added .map files in [maps] folder. But i cant see any maps loaded.

You need the meta.xml as well. You can't just put .map files and want them to work  You need to create the map in the Map Editor or download a full map (with all of the files) from the internet.

type /refresh all in F8 in game. Then open admin panel with P, go to Maps tab and click Refresh at bottom. Now search for your map.

So it's a map for another gamemode.

Corrupted map then. Download another one from google and try again. 

PS: I'm not familiar with other gamemodes than race so i just assumed it's same way.

Maps isnt corrupted, i think.

I've tried a lot of maps. But it still says 

ERROR: mapmanager\mapmanager_exports.lua:68: mapmanager: Map 'z-51Beta' is not compatible with 'DayZ'.

You have to look for Dayz Maps i guess.
