DM Maps

I used all the glorious information here at .map to get a map up and running to test. I am building a training course for my clan. I need help with why I can't get a normal dm start on my map. I can jump into the room but not as axis or allies. I have an allies player start, axis player start, deathmatch player start and player start. Why can't i jump in as axis or allies? This is with a normal test basic room.
I am new but I've read a lot on building maps, but i am just starting, please help.

Is your map in the maps/dm folder?

Yes. I figured that out, now i get an error right before the console loads the map. It says no sunflares selected? What the hell does that mean. No sunflares. I set my light sources. few of them so I wouldn't run into problems. Am imissing something?

Hmm maybe add this to your worldspawn:
sunflarename sun (for a day map)
sunflarename none (for a night map)

MMM. I think it's because i am a bloody cheater. I have modded the hell out of my game. I had nosunflares in my pk3 files. I'm checking to see if that is it. I will also try what you just said. I am making a recreation of Hamburger Hill. I'm in the final stages. I've had test maps work so this is a confusing problem. When it comes to this one i get that damn error.
Thanks for your ongoing help.

I figured out that i am a bloody cheater and that was it. But i have my sun set up correctly but no sun. I have it on 30 30 30 kinda 5 oclockish in the afternoon but no sun. This is my first map and it's looking great. One large hill full of bunkers. only one way up, and thats through z germans.

My other post is more inportant right now because i need to figure out how to pack this sucker up. Thanks for the help. Any info on scr and min files would be mich appreciated.
