You have to run it through QuakeWorld to customise the map rotation. If you
want to do this for normal Quake then you have to edit the rotate.qc source
then re-compile the progs.dat file.

as the docs say, you need to have aliases to changelevel for all the
maps you want to play. best idea is to create a maps.cfg and exec it.
e.g. have a maps.cfg containing:

alias map1 "changelevel unholy"
alias map2 "changelevel yard1"
alias map3 "changelevel xarena3"
alias map4 "changelevel soyarena"
alias map5 "changelevel pen2"
alias map6 "changelevel 2towers"


if you want random maps, set the samelevel variable to the highest
number map you want.
e.g. samelevel 5
will randomise between the maps defined in aliases map1 to map5

Nope, there's a better way, there's a script file on the net for it, I
got hold of it today and it works fine.

here's the URL : http://gocompupro.com/cqf/files/allmaps.zip

Hi,
   Ive done that but it does'nt randomise them it just plays them in the
order of the list 1-46.

Thanks anyway

i've just tried it again before posting and while there seems to be
problem with samelevel settings of -1, 0, 1 with arena, a negative value
of the number of maps plays them in order and a positive number seems to
randomise them ok. strange it's not working for you :(

Hi KJ,
      oops my fault I did'nt notice that you said a +value mine was set
to a -value. Ichanged it like you said and things are fine now.

Many thanks, and to all those who replied.
