Everything is filled in correctly @ configuration, voting has been enabled and all that. Ive seen it work on other servers but it always gives an error "Map not found" for me somehow.

Anyone know how i can fix this?

Mapname is written without C&C_ (e.g. Under instead of C&C_Under). It works on our server. However, the vote process is buggy and fails constantly after a few seconds. Same with !votenextmap.

I know how the syntax is. No matter how i put it,

!vote map C&C_Field.mix
!vote map C&C_Field
!vote map Field

!votenextmap C&C_Field.mix
!votenextmap C&C_Field
!votenextmap Field

None of them work...

does !maplist work? If not then most probably your firewall or something it blocking perlglob.exe from being launched by brenbot.exe (perlglob is used to parse filenames).

Nope, on IRC !maplist only returns an empty line.
It doesnt work when i have firewall turned on neither does it work when i turn the firewall off.

No idea, this perglob should be able to be executed, theres nothing what could block it (i think?)

I get the same here - !rotation works fine, and detects maps in the maplist, but !maplist returns an empty line too:

<EggBot> !maplist
<DSBot> The following maps are installed:
<DSBot>

This causes !setnextmap to not work either:

<Egg098> !rotation
<DSBot> Host: The map rotation includes:
<DSBot> Host: [C&C_Complex.mix] C&C_Volcano.mix C&C_Canyon.mix C&C_Walls_Flying.mix
<Egg098> !setnextmap canyon
<DSBot> Host: [BR] ERROR: canyon not found.

I tried with my firewall turned on/off - same result for both Confused

Hmm definitely an issue with perlglob, or the path to the data directory not set right. Do you have spaces in your defined paths?

FDSConfigFile = G:\Westwood\FDS\Server\Data\FanMaps.ini
FDSLogFilePath = G:\Westwood\FDS\Server\
path to the data directory ???

G:\Westwood\BRenBot-131
G:\Westwood\FDS\Server\
G:\Westwood\FDS\Server\data

!rotation does work on both IRC and In-Game so in a way its not a problem the !maplist doesnt work, but because of this the !setnextmap, !vote nextmap and !vote map dont work neither :/

Yeah !rotation always works, since it just gets that info from your .ini file. !maplist however parses out the list of maps it finds in your data directroy (using perlglob.exe). I will look into the issue further.

hav u turned voting on ??

in the brenbot.cfg file

# Set this to 0 or anything but 1 to disable voting.
VotingEnabled = 0

set this to 1 for voting, it comes as disabled (i only started using brenbot a week ago and it took me a while to figure this out)
