How to Create a Map Cycle on Your CS 1.6 Server

Creating custom map cycles is an important step of customizing your CS 1.6 server. This guide will show you how to create your own map rotation.

The mapcycle file isn’t created by default. Follow these easy steps to begin configuring a map rotation:

  1. Log in to the Game Host Bros Panel and select your server.
  2. Go to Management > File Manager and enter cstrike.
  3. Add your desired maps to mapcycle.txt, then click save.
  4. Restart your server.

The maps that get added to this file are found in /cstrike/maps/.
