[app]Entity with AI spawns in BSP viewer

Anthony · Post by **Anthony** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 4:26 pm

Ahh its been almost a month since ive left, modded or done anything with halo

So I thought I would stop by and visit and see how you guys are doing until I saw this thread

Im very glad to see that someone is trying to make entity better. Yea its kinda confusing if your just jumping head first into it

...

Since I helped poke out with alot of the bsp viewer stuff and I know my way around ill "TRY" and help you becuase its been a while since ive even looked at the source

Heh I wish it was as easy as just go and fix them

snakejknight wrote:just thought of somthing that could make this a little more usefull, i noticed that u use the same bipd in the viewer for each startiing location... i was wondering if maybe u could specify wich squad it is next to the co-ordanites... just a thought

Yea that should be pretty easy to add just update the class a bit

Umm.. I will help you out... I just need someone to showme the way around AI since I havent messed with it before

DoorM4n wrote:what i was really hoping to see was that the ai were labeled visually so I knew whether they were jackals or hunters

Hmm mabey we could show the jackals and hunters just need more info on the AI as I said in reply to punkrock

snakejknight wrote:the visual thing isn't neccisary, it woud be fine if he just had it so the squad was specified,... then u could name each squad by its bipd, it would also be kick *** if it specified wich spawnig location it was within the squad, that way we could know wich starting location to give wich weapon

Visual isnt neccisary but hey its entity and entity is so kick ass mine as well have it

.

I will add squad specific info once I learn more about AI. Mabey we could have even more to do with AI idk as of now

So yea umm if someone wants to fill me in ill be glad to add it

To be honest if you just look at the scnr plugin in meta editor or in notepad, the ai reflexive is pretty plainly explained. There is a char tag linked from the char pallete, the char links to a bipd, the bipd links to the model. Although when a vehicle is involved, including it's model could become more difficult. And the ai squads reflexive's first value is a string32, which could be used to tell which squad. My problem is that I dont know where it gets the stuff in the lower left corner of bsp viewer from.

Then things start getting really hard when you change the number that spawn, because you would need to write a whole bunch of code for those to show up in bsp viewer, but they'd all be one object.

Learn general C# coding... If you do that you could fix it in less than a minuite.

Or, you can actually help, not just tell him to learn how to program to fix it. Entity's source was released publically so people can learn and put their ideas into it... Maybe he wants to learn of entity.... And in the Entity 1.3 with source topic, around the pages 1-3 should be your problem.

.cs stands for csharp which was used to make entity..

srry but i need help. when i try to open ascension(first time using it period) it said menu not found or something close what's wrong?

That means it couldn't find the mainmenu.map. Just put the mainmenu.map in a folder with all your other .map files.

Very nice! I suggest that you should be able to choose the squad and spawning location to which you would like to edit.
