If there is a way to put a full size scarab on terminal, I need help on putting it in the map.

there is a tut some where and isnt terminal to small?

terminal bigger than turf isnt it? It seems like it. You can put a scarab on turf but I dont know. Just seeing if it is possible. It would look cool.

no ofence but this is really easy

drag n drop the scarb on 2 teminal then spawn using an item collection

"Drag and drop"? You've got to be kidding me. It's a lot harder than that.

LOL Extreamly easy just Drag and drop .............
by the way the scarab isnt realy that cool it is just a giant stoopid bugmachine

Do i drag the scarab from the "mach" tag or what tag? Because I tryed to drag from the mach tag but it took like 2 hours. When it finally got to the re-linking part, it froze. So if it can go faster or use a different tag that would help because I dont think it is suppose to take that long.

Yes u must drag it from the mach tag. If your movebox freezes, it may be too late to add a scarab because you already have too much stuff in the map. This happend to me for my last mod so i started with a fresh map. I took my scarab from oldmambasa.map.
Then you need to spawn it through the itmc collections tag.

1)open ur map in insolence and go to itmc tag.
2)duplicate any item in there, i used the rocket launcher ammo
3) open up the rocketlauncher ammo you just duplicated and change its dependency to the mach scarab.
4) Then go open up ADI and open the scnr tag. Then click tools at the top and go to blue guerilla
5) then scroll down to the collections tab and click the collection and change whatever weapon is in that box to your rocket launcher ammo 2.
6)Then open up cord finder and find the cordinates that you want it to spawn at and put the X Y and Z cordinates in.
7)Then at the top click validation and save.

It should spawn on your map now. good luck.

nice tut t_man

Are you sure it froze? It takes a really freakin' long time to relink. Like, you should start it before you leave for work or school, or go to bed or something. It'll sit there forever doing one part of relinking and you're sure it froze, but it didn't.

That could be it. I do have a lot of stuff on my map. But im sure it froze. It started re-linking, and after about half an hour, it said insolence not responding. You think it could also be the insolence program I have?

Could be all kinds of stuff, I guess. But Windows describes a lot of proggies as not responding when, if you leave them alone long enough, they'll continue. Just try leaving it all night and see if that works. It sucks, but that's what I had to do.

How would I know if I have too much stuff on the map. And the scarab in the "mach" tag on turf will work wont it?

Are you trying to drive it or use it as scenary?

Im trying to add the scarab on terminal as scenery, not to drive.

do you want to now how to make it look like its shooting?

I was just trying to put it on the map. You know, just standing there. But if it was shooting that would be really cool.

ok you need to do active scenery for this

1.open insolence
2.open terminal and a map that had the scarab projectile
3.drag the progectile to terminal
4.wait
5.add a itmc chunk to your map OR duplicate an itmc in the itmc tag
6.now open h2x/darkmatter and go to the new itmc
7.now click dependancies and switch the only dependancies from equip - what ever you duplicated to proj - scarab projectile
8. open up the scnr tag and click meta editor then go to the collections tab
9.make it spawn where the scarabs "mouth" is
10.fix encryption,sign,ftp and your done

Ill try that but first, if i just want it standing there and not shooting, do I need to do the thing with the x,y,z stuff or can I just open terminal, go to the itmc tag and change the sword to mach, then scarab?

yes...if you do that the scarab would be were the sword usually is
