sp to mp

joemammy47 · Post by **joemammy47** » Tue Mar 18, 2008 5:12 pm

First thing I want to say is that I'm back! WOOO!!!! I'm going to be doing an sp to mp and I need a little help since its been so long.

Do you have to pmi in a flag, ball or anything else you want to use?

Also, when you sp to mp convert and you want to pmi you just make a new items folder and add them in like normal correct?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

Ahh, it's you again.

Please please please don't bother with a 'New items' folder. It is useless and causes unnecessary problems. You don't have to add anything that was already in the map.

Well what about new scenery or anything else i may want. Like crashed vehicles?

yes, heres what i learned thanks to people here at halmods :3

It just changes the maps look, the scenery, and everything is still in the map, not moved in the original position, so your job is to move teh scenery, if ouy want to hadd new weapons the yes add a new items folder,

ok yeah thats what i was asking thanks, i remembered from my last pmi that it left everything in the map just way out and you have to move everything in. My new questions is this: When you do an sp to mp convert with sidewinder do you still have to extract sidewinders snow trees to rebuild with like you do with a normal rebuild?

ugg, i never do snow maps because of the tree problem, if i had to guess i would have to say yes.

thought so. Ok so to PMI with some CE stuff I would need to harbinger convert the map and just PMI like normal? I want some snow hogs or something

yes or you could remodel the current warthog

Haha well I wanted to take the one from CE considering it has working doors and beautiful treads

But that would work too

EDIT:
Since most of the vehicles have the bitmaps built into the map how do you PMI them with the bitmaps still on the vehicle....All the other times I have tried I end up with the model but corrupt bitmaps.

there is a tutorial done by Tyler777 in the tuts section on how to extract CE bitmaps from maps.

EDIT:
Can't find it, i checked every page. Unless its in the CE section. Probably, I'm dumb XD Let me go check again.
