Hi,

Maps and game modes.

BF3 includes the following maps which can be run in any game mode:

MP_001 - Grand Bazaar
MP_003 - Teheran Highway
MP_007 - Caspian Border
MP_011 - Seine Crossing
MP_012 - Operation Firestorm
MP_013 - Damavand Peak
MP_017 - Noshahar Canals
MP_018 - Kharg Island
MP_Subway - Operation Metro

XP1_001 - Strike at Karkand
XP1_002 - Gulf of Oman
XP1_003 - Sharqi Peninsula
XP1_004 - Wake Island

A total of 13 available maps spanning the following game Modes:


ConquestLarge0 - Conquest Up to 64
ConquestSmall0 - Conquest Up to 32
RushLarge0 - Rush Up to 32
SquadRush0 - Squad Rush Up to 8
SquadDeathMatch0 - Squad Deathmatch Up to 16
TeamDeathMatch0 - Team Deathmatch Up to 32


The map cycle / level rotation can be set via the Game Panel by going to Game Servers > BF3 > Default Configuration Files > MapList.txt

An example rotation:

MP_011 ConquestLarge0 2
MP_013 ConquestLarge0 2
MP_018 ConquestLarge0 2
MP_003 ConquestLarge0 2

The number postfixing the game mode sets the number of rounds to be played for that specific map.

Wondeful. Thanks. Rule number one. Never entirely trust bf3fan site map numbers

[Sgt.Trojan]

Does anyone know if ticket counts can be adjusted and the commands?

[night_wolf_in]

another question, how can we reduce the time between the rounds? 45seconds is long.

[IXL]

Unless im mistaken, which is likely.. lol It would appear we cannot mix the modes in a rotation, like we can in BC2. ?

[Sgt.Trojan]

Mixed mode is a no.
Shorting map change time is a no

[KC-Justin]

You could run a mix game mode rotation but you have to be careful with slot numbers and potentially some other bugs with it.

There is no way to reduce the time between rounds, I'm afraid.

[cyclops]

Is it possible to run more then 9 maps.
Like 9 on conquest and 9 on rush.
It seems the server only does the first 9 maps you set up.

[Sgt.Trojan]

Has anyone tested
levelVars.set gamemode CONQUEST tickets 200

I don't want to restart the servers tbh

[Sgt.Trojan]

Has anyone increased their ticket count?

[KC-Justin]

We've queried DICE on this but as yet not had a reply. It's possible but there is no documentation on it.

It's most likely something like you've noted above; give it a whirl.

[Sgt.Trojan]

bumped

[freaky]

yes, running 2 1000 ticket servers.

times number in vars by 3 to give a rough idea of ticket count.


Default Config Files
/conf/Admin/Startup.txt
vars.gameModeCounter 333

gives 900ish ticket server,

[KC-Justin]

I think Troj was after how to set tickets on a per map basis which unfortunately cannot be done at this time. It is however in the works for a future update.

[Sgt.Trojan]

Ahh no. I bumped it up for map names

It's worth noting that ticket count in game is in format 999 can not display 4 digits we use 334.
If you use Procon you can set in there with out having to stop your server as a short term measure. Once you get the chance to reboot server then add it perm.

[Sgt.Trojan]

Justin,

Would you be able to update this with the Karkand maps please?

Thank you 8)

[KC-Justin]

Done.

[Sgt.Trojan]

Spank you!
