usually if youre missing a wad file it would say the name of the wad file that is missing.. if its not giving any specifics, the bsp file might just be corrupt

thanks noddy i go tmindmaze2 from eatmyshorts and when i looked at it i saw that where i got the map from it was incomplete , they didnt include the wad files or sprites that go with the map so once again thanks guys

I normally run a server on my PC to test for things like this. I install on my PC first then on my clan server when I'm happt that everything works.rnYou can also create your own res file and see what is missing before you upload the new map.
