Tele trouble with Sparkedit

Post by Amarine88 »

I am using sparkedit to edit maps and it has been working with moving vehicals, flags, shields.... but when I place a teleporter it never works in the Halo game. Can you guys give me instuctions for it so I know I am doing it right.

PS: AIM me at AMARINE88 so I can host a game, give you my IP and make sure the mods work for others.

will the first thing you hvae to know is that when you place a teleporter in a map, it doesnt give it a shader of the teleporter shield, so when you play the map, its invisible... Also, if you didnt figure this one out already, makeure you place them corrctly, if you have any questions pm me :lol:

yes this is true, but also the teleporter pair do not come with there own shader and bitmap so they are invisible... This is a mistake many new commers to SE have... Therefore when they start up the map and dont see teles they get confused :cry:

NOTE: You can't add teleporters in SP maps, if that's what you're trying to do.

1 I have been marking them with a shield.
2 SP map?

I was wondering about the arrows but it still didn't work. Does it need to be lined up perfectly witht he ground. I have it close but not perfect.
