So when i change map... [Important-Read]

[Kingen50cent]

Yes let me continue the topic title,
When my server changes map it takes long to load up it stays like at the loading screen saying "Server changing level" for like 4-5 minutes and then loads up the map.

That annoys and pisses of some players and makes some quit, i need help on this please.

Is it because i host my server on a VPS (It's good, but i dont think thats the reason)

What are you talking about, and how do i do that ?

Just throwing this out there,

Are you talking about the time it takes to download the map, if so do you have  FastDL setup?

[Kingen50cent]

No it's not about the FastDL,
It's when the server changes the map, the loading screen gets stuck for a WHILE at "Server Changing Level" and after some minutes the map loads and Sending client info appears...

Do you use Xenonservers?

[Handy_man]

What system do you use for a map change? RTV, votemap, fretta? is there any difference between any of these when changing map? what about when you change the map yourself via a command? Because to be clear when ever i change map never get that warning/ instruction.

Only time its ever said that to me is when i'm looking directly at the servers console and type map [insert map name here] else no plugin ever gives that warning that i have seen.
