    So, I put my maps into Base/Maps/CTF, but I don't for the life of me know what to type into sv_mapcycle in autoconfig.cfg in order to make the maps be on the server.

    Here's what I currently have for sv_mapcycle:

    Code:
    sv_mapcycle = Maps/CTF/AncientPipes.png; Maps/CTF/Drit.png.; Maps/CTF/Magik; Maps/CTF/SunkenEarth;

    you are doing it all wrong. first, you need to point to where your mapcycle file is
    for example:
    Code:
    sv_mapcycle = Base/Maps/cool_folder/mapcycle.cfg
    then, in that mapcycle.cfg file, you need to put:
    Code:
    mapcycle = Maps/CTFAncientPipes.png; Maps/CTFDrit.png.; Maps/CTFMagik; Maps/CTFSunkenEarth;

    Ahhh okay, thank you.

    Again, I couldn't understand the example well

    It doesn't help that I also have mediocre knowledge of the workings of modern electronic technology.

    Um, I tried this and it doesn't seem to be working, the server sets itself to a default map instead of one it would've done if I were to leave sv_mapcycle blank but, it's still not loading the maps I want it to

    um, okay...

    The autoconfig is just a copy of the regular autconfig, don't worry it's nothing different.

    Your map locations look wrong. In particular, "Maps/CTFDrit.png." is likely to cause issues (why is there a trailing dot?) but also the last two maps are missing an extension. Look at the default gamemode map cycles for how you should write the map paths.

    Alright, I fixed the mapcycle.cfg (supposedly) and the autoconfig.cfg (supposedly). The maps I'm trying to upload are located in Base/Maps/CTF, and it's still just loading the generated maps.
