hi
i've done already written it (at the wrong place maybe)
but here is what i have written:

I've compiled an programm wich is nearly the same. It's very easy to use.
You only have to put your list of conf files you want for rotating maps in an txt file.

You create an txt file: "rotate.txt" in C: drive ("c:\rotate.txt").
Your conf files must be in "c:\bzflag" floder.
To run this map in rotation, you only have to write it's name. If it's "ctf.conf" "ctf2.conf" you only have to write "ctf.conf", enter and the next map "ctf2.conf"
if you have 10 conf files, make a list of your 10 conf files, not harder.

Then only run "Auto2" aplication

go here to download it :

but you have to have Windows

have you uncompressed the folder?

Here is the source for Qbasic:

SHELL "cd c:\bzflag"
DO
OPEN "i", #1, "C:\rotate.txt"
WHILE NOT EOF(1)
INPUT #1, a$
SHELL "bzfs -conf " + a$
IF INKEY$ = " " THEN END
WEND
CLOSE
LOOP

would I do this

C:\Program Files\BZFlag2.0.4

C:bzfs -conf serverconf.txt
C:bzfs -conf serverconf2.txt
C:bzfs -conf serverconf3.txt
C:bzfs -conf serverconf4.txt

or this

C:Program Files\BZFlag2.0.4\bzfs.conf

C:bzfs -conf serverconf.txt
C:bzfs -conf serverconf2.txt
loop

I get this when I do the short text

http://my.bzflag.org/bb/download.php?id=2090

and if this helps this is the directory that auto2 and 3 are saved in

C:\Documents and Settings\Kyle\Desktop\bzflag stuff

Ok it's because conf files must be in C:\bzflag\conffiles.conf

i'll deit it for you, only tell me:
*where is the bzfs application and
*your conf files are on c:\bzfs ?

Winny · Post by **Winny** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:04 pm

my bzfs app is in

C:\Program Files\BZFlag2.0.4\bzfs

and my conf files are in

C:\serverconf.txt

and

C:\serverconf2.txt

lddw · Post by **lddw** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:05 pm

ok
i'me editing it

Winny · Post by **Winny** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:06 pm

I don't have a C:\bzflag

I have a

C:\Program Files\BZFlag2.0.4

lddw · Post by **lddw** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:11 pm

ok it should work now.

You only have to create rotate.txt in the folder of bzw application and add
C:\serverconf1.txt
and
C:\serverconf2.txt

Winny · Post by **Winny** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:14 pm

what is the bzw application

Winny · Post by **Winny** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:16 pm

and it is in french

lddw · Post by **lddw** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:17 pm

bzfs sorry and there is a problem i recompile it
you can use auto2b

Winny · Post by **Winny** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:19 pm

so if my bzfs is in

C:\Program Files\BZFlag2.0.4

thats where I would save the rotate.txt

so now the rotate.txt should look like this still right

shell C:Program Files\BZFlag2.0.4\bzfs.conf
do
shell C:bzfs -conf serverconf.txt
shell C:bzfs -conf serverconf2.txt
loop60

Winny · Post by **Winny** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:21 pm

lddw · Post by **lddw** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:22 pm

did you extract it from the compressed folder.
This is rotate.txt:

shell C:bzfs -conf serverconf.txt
shell C:bzfs -conf serverconf2.txt

is it that?

Winny · Post by **Winny** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:23 pm

yes I did in winzip

lddw · Post by **lddw** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:24 pm

can you tell me <what it says please

Winny · Post by **Winny** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:25 pm

what so I would get rid of

shell C:Program Files\BZFlag2.0.4\bzfs.conf
do
shell C:bzfs -conf serverconf.txt
shell C:bzfs -conf serverconf2.txt
loop60

and do that

shell C:bzfs -conf serverconf.txt
shell C:bzfs -conf serverconf2.txt

lddw · Post by **lddw** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 7:27 pm
