Call of Duty: World at War Custom Zombies trouble
I just got CoD: WaW for some custom zombies. The game runs perfectly fine, but I'm having a problem with installing and playing the custom maps. I know how to manually install the maps as well as running automatic installations. The maps appear in my mods folder as well as in the mods tab in game, and they are able to boot up. However, when I go to my console to give the command and press enter, nothing happens (e.g. map TMG_Christmas1.1). Is there any other supporting mods I need to install or is there someth9ing I need to do. I'm also running this on a mac, but I have gotten one map to work which was the map "Baseball Field". Thanks for any help you can offer

Did you purchase the game on steam? Also make sure the mod is loaded. If this still doesn't work, go to to co-op menu and go "Options & Controls", "Game Options", and finally, turn "Enable Console" to yes instead of no. Sometimes this is already enabled when you start the game and sometimes it isn't.

I did purchase the game off of steam. I also did load the mod as well as enabling the console, but I'll double check now

Sweet dude, if it still doesn't work, then your map download is broken. Or your file is zipped still.

It's not zipped at all. I'm not sure what is up with it. It does load up, so maybe it might be the console input I'm putting in is wrong or its broken. I'm wondering, since the map uses weapons not in the base game of WaW, that I needed to have some other folder for the gun, perk, or power-up drops, but I'm completely new to this so progress is slow on my end

yeah, I'm trying to run TMG_Christmas 1.1 (thats the folder's name) so it should come out /map nazi_zombie_TMG_Christmas1.1 right?

Yup, that sounds about right. Is the mod name the same as the folder name?

yeah, its the same. The map I ran before was baseball field and there wasn't anything added to it (so pretty much all the original guns, perks, pack a punch etc.). All the other maps had different guns and additional perks, including this map

Hmm that is extremely weird. I've never heard of a problem like this before. So basically any maps with "addons" won't work?

Pretty much. I mean I'll keep trying to find maps I can play, but it would be nice to try out a TMG or a UGX mod

Try downloading the UGX Map Manager? Maybe that'll work

okay i got one map to start loading but I'm pretty sure it froze up on me lol. Yeah so instead of my previous command, I just omitted the nazi_zombie_ part and put in /map TMG_Christmas1.1 looks like it did the trick besides the freezing part

Well it was for a different map, but pretty much the same idea. Now I just gotta figure out the settings to actually get it to run. Thanks for the help man
