Sometimes i had to open and close the game
until a new map appeared so you could be having the same problem ,
Check in your joint ops file to make sure the map is there,
then open and close the game a couple of times ,it should come up .
For the map to cycle to next map quicker,just alter the
time limit under the game tag when hosting !

You have to create a .bin file to get the name of your maps to show up m8, You will be able to do it through NILE when they get around to adding it, But at the moment you have to use the "TEXT TOOL" that is included with the BHD Mod Tools.

Here is how to do it, This was not made by me but was Made By Slasher one of our Squad Members.

"this is what you do.


1.download the mod tools and unzip it some place.

2. Go to that folder and open the "Text Tool.exe"

3.Once the text tool is open then go to edit (top left) click the group tab,a new windown will now open up.

4. In that new window double click on the word "New Group" A new window will open that says "Group title" type in "info" and hit ok.

5. Now you will be back in the main text window after hitting ok when you in step 4. Now just double click on the text that says "New string". A new windown with lots of boxs will open up. Type in "title" in the "ID" box window. Then below that box in the big window next to the word "text" type your map name here. Make sure it is spelled the same way as the npj file. then Hit ok.

6. Now go to file, Click save as and save this file into your JO directory. Make sure its spellled the same as your map name.

7. Go back into "file' click save BIN. You will not see it do anything but it will place a file in the same place that you saved the IR file. (Thats why when you do the "save as" make sure you save it to your JO directiory). This fille will be called whatever you named your map.BIN file......IE---->SlashersMap.BIN

This BIN file you dont move or have to load to anything. Just keep it in your main JO directory. "

Ok confusion between my post and sals in answer to your
question.
Option 1.
Genocidal,are you saying your map file is not showing in the
cycle list at all ?(this is what i read) or...
Option 2.
Are you saying you want the mission name to show up
while the game is loading,or on breifing?
Option 3
Are you saying when hosting the map ,from server side view
that the mission name is not showing ?
Or is it special option 4. pmsl

It seems a lot looking at my post, But really it is easy m8.

when you have done it once You will fly through it.

If you still have problems m8 send me a PM with all your names to your .npz files and ill make the bin files for you and zip them up m8.

All you have to do then is unzip them to your JO dir, And when you zip up your maps for download with the bin files, it should work fine.

Hope this will help you out, If it is all too much for you m8.
