Finally! We are back online! After over a year of server issues we have finally found a host that can handle us. The great news is that there was almost no data loss even though we had two server crashes that wiped out the entire site. We will continue working on small bugs and layout improvements. If you find a bug please post it on the Site Bugs forum. Thanks!

I have a new custom map that I just finished. It has 18 spawn points and my server has 18 max players as well. I ran a resgen on it and it provided me with this list of files:
mywads_two.wad
halflife.wad
liquids.wad
czde_dust.wad
gfx/env/skyup.tga
gfx/env/skydn.tga
gfx/env/skylf.tga
gfx/env/skyrt.tga
gfx/env/skyft.tga
gfx/env/skybk.tga
       I found the top 4 files but not the rest and I think that's the problem here. I believe there's no need to upload (halflife.wad) and problably the same is true for the (czde_dust.wad) file but does anyone have any idea where these other files might be? And is that my problem in the first place? I'm stumped. But when i try to load my map in my server, it simply stalls out in the load screen w/o providing me with any error message. I've also thought of the possibility that I may have some files in the wrong folders in my server ftp, but i was reading another similar forum here that said the wad files should be placed in the cstrike folder and not the maps folder... WTF where's my cstrike folder for the server? Don't really know if he knew what he was talkin about. My friend also made a custom map that won't load.  But anyway, can anyone help me?
PS: The map runs fine on my computer, even with bots so I must be missing some file in the server.

everyone one should have halflife.wad and the liquids.wad

not everyone will have the czde_dust.wad as thats only for people who have cscz

the last 6 files are just the sky textures and should be found in your cstrike/gfx/env/ folder

when you upload them to your server keep that same directory structure gfx/env

the cstrike folder is the main game folder. all folders are in the cstrike folder.
the wads go in the cstrike folder

Thanks Slackiller, but what u said b4 really helped me, when u said that the wad files go in the czero root folder. This drove me to try to put em in the server root folder rather than the maps folder on the server. I tried to load the map again after i uploaded the wad files to the server ftp root folder and the map worked fine... Just in case anyone else had my problem too. Thanks Slackiller. Grin
