Every now and then people who host servers from their house/ their PC ask me this question,
so for future people, here's how.


Way 1:

Open server.cfg and make a new line, and on that line type "mapname" then space, then your new map name.
Reload your server, and "San Andreas" will be replaced with your new text/ mapname.

Way 2:
Under "OnGameModeInIt" call back, add

pawn Code:

SendRconCommand("mapname My_Server");

and simply replace "My_Server" with your new map name.


Thanks for taking your time to read this noob tutorial, lol.

Not too shabby, alot of people don't even know this exists.

You could also use a simple function I made, it does the exact same thing, but this is a bit "shorter", and looks better.

pawn Code:

forward SetMapName(mapName[]);

public SetMapName(mapName[])
{
    new string[30];
    format(string, sizeof(string), "mapname %s", mapName);
    SendRconCommand(string);
    return 1;
}

USAGE: SetMapName("Sky's World"); //would set the mapname to Sky's World

And theres one which shows how to set your score on how much cash you got, but I can't find the link to that one.

pawn Code:

#define SetMapName(%0) \
        SendRconCommand("mapname "%0)

Usage: SetMapName("Los Santos");

You could also just add mapname to the server.cfg.
