Weap to object spawn

Post by btownsen4 »

Is there any way to change what spwans at certain places? Like a instead of the magnum being there, there would be a Scorpian, or a Wharthog?

So this is what i did. I went into ITMC tag in Dot Halo, and went to the plasma rifle. I clicked on the plasma rifle and above the tag veier set the "ITMC" tag to "Veich" and put the directory to of the spectere. This is in containment. there are no vehichials in the ITMC tag in containment. What am i doing wrong? When i count it down, it freezes up at 0

VECH

Post by btownsen4 »

So VECH is the vechi spawn, and ITMC is the weap spawn? Note, this isnt a double posting because i posted this after an erorred response which was supposed to go after the other one

vehc=Vehicle Collection
itmc=Item Collection

You should go into the scnr tag(there should only be one in a MP map) and under its dependencies, there should be spawn points for all the items.

so if theres a plasma rifle dependencie, swap it the vehicle you want

Well, i went into SCNR and selected the plasma rifles and switched all of them to the spectre in the Vehi tag. When i load the map, there are no plasma rifles, and no specteres? This is on containment

Bah. Do not edit Scnr its pointless. Goto ITMC and edit that. Change the Weap in the ITMC tag to whatever you want. Mach, Weap, Bipd, Vehi, whatever. Have fun.

ok the way i do it is.....click plasma rifle in [itmc], then go to the dependencies and click the ONLY weapon in the dependecnices box, then go to the drop down box switch it to [vehi], it should say null, then drop down and select scorpion, save changes, fix encryption, FTP your hard drive and have a party.

Ya, i figured it out before your response, but thanks. You guys all failed to mention "Dependencies" Before I tried to make the map load a spawn point as a vechi !
