Hi, how can i add some fields in the matchfinder when i want to create a challange? I can see only:
-your team
-data
-squad size

I would like to add some fields like game modality (S&D, TDM...) or the third map in case of a draw... Is it possible? Thanks..

Can someone port this over to VB5? I run a Video Gaming community forum and am looking to have something like this, however nothing currently exists.

Hello,

Great mod, I just installed it and I'm trying to set up a tournament to test with. However when I try to join the tournament with my team I get the following warning/error.


PHP Warning: require_once(..../includes/functions_tll_prem.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in ..../tournaments.php on line 2881

Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/home4/minion/public_html/forum2/includes/functions_tll_prem.php' (include_path='.:/opt/php55/lib/php') in /home4/minion/public_html/forum2/tournaments.php on line 2881

Could you advise on what I need to do?

*EDIT* Please disregard, I found the issue.

Thanks!
