Inside data/maps only the maps that need beaconizing or it will start making all maps

Important is to place on every Map that needs Beaconizing the Beacon Type ValidBeacon its inside the Library

Beacon Server itself offers a Menu you can open with M key, if you start a Manual Beacon Server you can use M and after that L to go to the Submenu for Maps. There you first need to Load the Maplist with 1. It will show you some Warnings about missing Maps as long as you dont have all Maps inside the Data/maps folder but this Warnings are ok . After that you can select 9 and push enter after that you need to type yes and hit enter again to add all the maps from Data/maps to your beaconizer Queue.

Hit Escape and after you are back at the main menu push 4 and escape again to start the process.
