Hi, newbie question
basically, i want it so anyone can vote any mode, custom or not, available.
so, if i download a heap of gametypes and maps and install them on the server, can people get access to them in game without me having to set it up ?
is this possible, and if so, how much of a hassle is it to set up ?
Cheers.
server help

You would need a mapvote type mod installed. Check out

Speaking of choosing maps. Is there any quick way in UT2k3 to get back to the Instant Action setup screen from in game? I know i can get instantly to the server selection for online games but having to forfeit to get back to main menu before going back to the setup is annoying

Choosing maps? There are mapvote programs out there of course, Furry has mentioned that one on his server, but I don't know how well it works offline for botmatches. Maybe it does, I dunno.
But this I can tell you.... In UT, the best way to do this, bar none, was with XMaps. And he's already got a beta out for UT2.
XMaps is designed for use on servers or in botmatches. Using it offline, you can just hit the XMaps button in the middle of your game, and then choose any map, mut, or gametype to play, and 'warp' to it directly. Set the timelimit, fraglimit too. Even choose DM in a CTF map or whatever.
It's BETA, but I've been using it, and it works pretty well. And I am sure it will only get better.

Oops.. yes I forgot to mention Xmaps didn't I.. bad moo...
The clients will automatically download the portion of mapvote that they need when they connect. Its very small. Just be sure your server has 'allow downloads' set to True or that you are using a redirect that has those files.
