    My friend has a rented server and he can't load created map he made. Never rented a server so I don't know how it looks like. Can anyone HELP?! :|

    You have to ask the renter. We can't help you here. If you can provide which host your using i might be able to help you.

    Sending map :
    It depends of the host. Search a way to access FTP and send your map in /Base/Maps .
    Loading a map from a distant or local server :
    1. You need your RCON password. You can create in from dedicated_autoconfig.gm ( Classic ) / autoconfig.cfg ( Beta ). Check wiki for that.
    2. Login on your server.
    3. Press 'home' key ( On my azerty keyboard, it's a top left arrow )
    4. Type /rcon /loadbitmap "mapname"
    Warning : Don't type .png . The file must be in Maps/.
    Example : /rcon /loadbitmap "GayMaps/PointlessMap" to open "Maps/GayMaps/PointlessMap.png".
    Warning, bis : You must restart server after if you sent a new map or when you will load it you will have a crappy bugged out map.

    On new kag/beta you should NOT use loadbitmap, you should use loadmap.
    Similarly, you should include the full path

    Code:
    /rcon /login <your password here>
/rcon /loadmap Maps/Path/To/Map.png

    Because it uses the old bitmap loader instead of the new, scripted ones. I should just remove the loadbitmap command to avoid confusion.

    Can you get this to load? on your client or server?
