Default Mappers, Modders and Skinners unite - a suggestion - 08-23-2002, 07:04 AM

Most of you might not know I own and admin the AA.com dedicated game server

It's a pain in the butt when I have to go looking for a map mod or skin

What I propose is. A naming system that will easily identify your type of pk3 file. This is just the
name of the pk3 file and does not have anything to do with the internal name.

Something along the lines of this

Maps can be broken down into two types:
user-map-obj-map_name.pk3
user-map-TDM-map_name.pk3

skins:
user-skins-skin_name.pk3
mods:
user-mod-mod_name.pk3

This way when you list the main dir. you will see all your files in groups.

This will make the job of admins easier thus giving the admin more time to monitor his/her server.

Let me know what you guys think.
