So I wanted to try making my own map, so I went and found this tutorial and even though it's for linux, and it's probably outdated, I figured enough out to make and compile a map. I used 7zip to stick the necessary files into a .pk3 but when I try to run the map in urt using the /map command, it says "map not found"

I downloaded the example map from the tutorial and checked in in 7zip and the files looked identical. urt can play the example map just fine with /map but not my map!

Is there a certain way to make these .pk3 files? Because whatever I'm doing I guess it's wrong.

EDIT:

I've also set it to run urban terror right after the map finishes compiling, but the same issue occurs. There aren't any map leaks that would cause it to not work. Please help!

/sv_pure 0 to start maps not contained into a pk3

Are you putting the map in the maps folder? What is the path within your pk3? It should be maps/mapname inside the pk3 and the pk3 should go in the q3ut4 folder. If you are trying to run the map when it is not in a pk3 it needs to be in the maps folder in q3ut4. If you don't have a maps folder you will need to create one.

There is one other thing that will make a map not load and that is you must have at least one death match spawn in the map.

Thanks, this helps and it works, I wasn't putting my .map files in the right folder so now it works. I am going to install a fresh version of urt just to mess around with mapping because I think the copy of my "gaming" version is too messy lol.
