Custom Maps

Server side

Xonotic has Custom Maps support in fileformat pk3. Maps should be located in the data folder like server.cfg on your dedicated Server.

Make it useable for Clients

Xonotic doesn't provide a Filedownloader inside the gameserver, have need to host your custommaps on HTTP Webspace and set the correct values in server.cfg.

Example

• Userdir: -userdir /home/xonotic/server1: add foo.pk3in /home/xonotic/server1/data/

• server.cfg: Add sv_curl_defaulturl="http://xonotic.foo.bar"

• Put foo.pk3 in the HTTP Root Folder to make it accessable via http://xonotic.foo.bar/foo.pk3

Look at Xonotic Wiki for more infos about Custom Map Hosting

Start parameters

Every Server cvar can be overwritten in an starting argument, but it's recommended to setup as much as possible in server.cfg
