To load one of the default arenas ...

Add this in your server.cfg
set xp_config "arenas/ra3map1.txt"

ok i got a solution Happy
not the xp_config ... but this is my way:

[code:1] BAT file:
start quake3.exe +set fs_game excessiveplus +set dedicated 1 +exec multi.cfg +set net_port 27960 [/code:1]

[code:1] multi cfg:
set sv_hostname "^2MultiMap E+ server"
set g_motd "^2Welcome To MultiMap Server"
set sv_maxclients "31"
set sv_master1 "master0.gamespy.com"
set sv_master2 "master3.idsoftware.com"
set sv_master3 "master0.excessiveplus.net"
set sv_master4 "master.quake3arena.com"
set sv_master5 "q3master.allseeingeye.com"
set rconpassword "temp"
set g_gametype "0"
set com_hunkmegs "75"
map xparena0 [/code:1]

[code:1]arenas:
see ../arenas/xparena0
[/code:1]

my problem is that to load the xparena0 need time ... much time Sad
when i try with map test_bigbox i get the error
cant load test_bigbox.aas file - cause he dont load the next map in rotation (i edit the cfg and add rotation file ).
so what do i wrong ?!?! help plz

arena support means that u can run special maps which contains more arenas in itself u cant use any standart maps for this purpose

in arenas directory u can create txt file which will be named like some special map and set there things like fraglimit timelimit config etc by default u can see there xparena0.txt and ra1map1.txt two special maps take look inside files

with 1.03 came one testing map called xparena0 which contains dm17 ctf1 and dm1 combination (respawn in hall there are teleports for each arena)
ra3 - rocket arena 3 maps are great for this
for more info about this read some stuff about ra3

about rotation u can use normal rotation but it cant/wont affect subarenas in any way, for server its still like one map, this is not kind of virtualization of q3 servers just support for special maps
