Adding MACH's to a map

Post by fergie4000 »

Ok, i know how to add mach's into a map by using a weapon to spawn them for example. But, is there a way to just spawn them by themselves? For example the big wheel on Zanzibar. That can be moved as a mach rather than a weapon.
Hope this made sense,
Thanks.

in the bsp viewer

Make sure at least one of the pallet chunks had the machine referenced...

And at least one placement chunk referenced toward that pallet chuck.

By duplicating mach placement chunks. Or by referencing already existing ones to your mach.]
