I'm sorry if this has been discussed already, I didn't manage to find anything when I searched.

My problem is a bit odd, all of a sudden I cannot get maplists working on my listen server. After a game we cannot vote for a new map, the list is completely empty. It worked as a charm for a couple of weeks, just to break without any changes made by me (that I can think of).

I have tried:

Because if I untick it it would previously revert to default maps (i.e. all of them). But now I can't get any maps to show up regardless if I use maplists or not. And yes, "Enable mapvoting" is active.

Pardon my ignorance, but where can you change filters? I can't find it in the in-game menu or the WebAdmin interface.

Any thoughts on the screenshot I posted? Usually the maps are moved from the inactive to the active column, aren't they? (Not copied.)

I got tired of hassling with this so I just moved my KillingFloor.ini to another folder, to let the game create a new one. After I had done that and changed all settings back to what I had previously I exited the game and compared the new .ini with the old one in Beyond Compare. The only differing entries I found were entries that didn't exist at all in the new one (everything else was just the same).

These are the ones that were in my old .ini but not in my current (working) one:

I don't really see which of those it could be that broke my maplist config though. Oh well, I've got it all sorted now regardless.

So, for future reference, if anyone would happen to get this issue, all you have to do is delete your KillingFloor.ini in \Steam\steamapps\common\killingfloor\System\ and start the game again, and you should be able to create functioning maplists again.


PS. I found another difference between the .ini files. The old one had DetectedVideoMemory=1024 while the new one has DetectedVideoMemory=512. Might that be because my current GPU has 896 MB RAM and that Killing Floor doesn't really know what to make of it? (Win7 x64 with 4 GB DDR2 RAM as well) And should I change it to 1024 again, would it make any difference?

Sorry for the awfully long post.

No Killingfloor.ini

I am having this problem but I do not see a killingfloor.ini in my system folder, I see killingfloor.int and multiple configuration settings but no .ini. Please Help. Thanks

The Configuration Settings files are the .ini files

Try deleting the Configuration Settings file named KillingFloor, that should fix it.
