# maps.ini - Adding more maps to the maps menu

The maps.ini file in your addons\amx\config folder contains a list of maps that can be chosen from the Changelevel Menu using the amx_mapmenu command. This is what the default maps.ini looks like:

; Maps configuration file
; File location: $moddir/addons/amx/config/maps.ini
; To use with Maps Menu plugin
as_oilrig "OilRig - Assassination"
as_tundra "Tundra - Assassination"
de_aztec "Aztec - Bomb/Defuse"
de_cbble "Cobble - Bomb/Defuse"
de_chateau "Chateau - Bomb/Defuse"
de_dust "Dust - Bomb/Defuse"
de_dust2 "Dust II - Bomb/Defuse"
de_inferno "Inferno - Bomb/Defuse"
de_nuke "Nuke - Bomb/Defuse"
de_prodigy "Prodigy - Bomb/Defuse"
de_storm "Storm - Bomb/Defuse"
de_survivor "Survivor - Bomb/Defuse"
de_train "Trainyard - Bomb/Defuse"
de_torn "Torn - Bomb/Defuse"
de_vegas "Vegas - Bomb/Defuse"
de_vertigo "Vertigo - Bomb/Defuse"
cs_747 "747 Hijack - Hostage Rescue"
cs_assault "Assault - Hostage Rescue"
cs_backalley "Alleyway - Hostage Rescue"
cs_estate "Zaphod's Estate - Hostage Rescue"
cs_havana "Havana - Hostage Rescue"
cs_italy "Italy - Hostage Rescue"
cs_militia "Militia - Hostage Rescue"
cs_office "The Office Complex - Hostage Rescue"
cs_siege "Canyon Siege - Hostage Rescue"

(Note that a semi-colon ; was inserted at the beginning of some lines. This prevents them from being used.)

Adding maps to the menu for use is very simple and should be entered just as other maps are in this file. The map name first with out the .bsp extension. Then the name of the map and a brief description of what type it is "in quotes". So if you wanted to add the map fy_snow.bsp to your maps.ini file it would look like this:

fy_snow "Snow - Team Deathmatch"

Removing maps is as simple as removing the line from this file that represents the map, or by inserting a semi-colon at the beginning of the line causing it to be ignored.

This menu is accessed in the game by typing amx_mapmenu in the console. Or by binding a key to that command. The menu will show up on the left side of your screen while playing. It looks something like this:

Changelevel Menu
1. Havana - Hostage Rescue
2. Italy - Hostage Rescue
3. Dust II - Bomb/Defuse
4. Militia - Hostage Rescue
5. Cobble - Bomb/Defuse
6. Snow - Team Deathmatch
7. Mindmaze - Team Deathmatch
8. Assault - Hostage Rescue
9. More...
0. Exit
1/2

Just select the number in front of the map to change it and that's it! If you have more than eight maps, option 9. will show you them. Option 0. takes you to the previous menu.

Any changes made to the maps.ini file will show up after the next map change.
