Is it just me or do somethings not transfer over properly? I transfered a mach from a fresh sp map and it froze my map? Any reason why?

It depends on which map you transfer it to sometimes or the mach... What mach and which map did you transfer it to?

Well i was wonderin to get sounds to transfer over correctly do i need to reclusively(sp?) extract and injected or can i just drag and drop. Because i injected the hunter html with it and i shot him. And i only heard him make the hunter noise once and when i killed him it froze.

check the ifp, maybe use the ifp checker, if that doesn't turn up anything try looking through it manually. The problem is probably in hlmt, maybe mode, or it could be some other random tag. If all the ifps are perfect then idk what it is, but check there first

also it might be a good idea to make the CTF & Initial respawns also move-able in the BSP viewer... it's a important thing for keeping the gameplay intact, like ANTIrespawns for CTF games and stuff.. i got this insolence plugin that allows you to move several spawns .. these:

-unsuitable_respawn
-terries_anti_spawn
-ctf_bravo_nospawn
-ctf_alpha_nospawn

I have this IFP too. My problem is I don't know where exactly these are supposed to go. Anyone care to tell me please?

The Flying Dutchmen · Post by **The Flying Dutchmen** » Fri May 05, 2006 8:34 am

unsuitable respawn are places that doesnt allow to spawn anyone, if someone is in this particular area.... like the 2 ledges on gemini where u teleport to, those ledges got both spawnpoint AND antispawn, so people dont spawn behind you when u stand on the ledge.. if you go away, there is no antispawn anymore and people can spawn there again

terries anti spawn,.. is territory antispawn

CTF_bravo.. is the spawn so red team doesnt spawn near the blue team base... its a particular area where the red guys get spawned..
same for CTF_alpha.. its a area where team blue spawns

if you make BSP conversion.. you better do this or the gameplay will be messed up... be VERY precise , or else the gameplay will be messed up as well if you let it spawn improper

Maybe we should make the unsuitable respawn actually work, so we dont get spawn camped.

Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.

Seriously. There is nothing more I hate than to be continuously spawn killed on CTF on maps like Burial Mounds and Warlock.

Back on topic: the sound injection works beautifully. Sounds work 90% of the time, rather than 2% with Dark Matter.

.64 IS DONE!!! YEAHH!!!!!!!

Wait... wrong website/subject... /me shakes zdoom out of head**

This tool's BSP viewer/spawn changer has better control schemes than dark matter and is actually like you're flying through the map right?

Wait... again... where do me gets this elusive latest version of Microsoft .NET framework?

Viral · Post by **Viral** » Fri May 05, 2006 2:28 pm

Yeah, this application says I need a new version of the .net framework, yet I have it already...

Is there a way to rotate the angle at which a bsp spawns so that a map would be playable sideways or upside down?

If so... how?

kornkidcrazy · Post by **kornkidcrazy** » Fri May 05, 2006 3:19 pm

-Item Buttons

Left Click=Select/Unselects Item
Up Arrow=Item Moves Forward
Down Arrow=Item Moves Backwards
Left Arrpw=Item Moves Left
Right Arrow=Item Moves Right
PG UP=Item Rises
PG Down=Item Lowers
Left Click(hold) + shift + move mouse=Tilts Item North/South
Left Click(hold) + ctrl + move mouse=Tilts Item Rotates Object
Left Click(hold) + alt + move mouse=Tilts Item East/West

Increase camera speed + (plus sign)
Decrease camera speed - (minus sign)

-Hold control, shift, or alt and use the left mouse button will rotate selected object.
-Select more then one object at a time try click the box not the object.
-Enity can move over 'most' sounds to other maps.
-Enity is not designed for MP to SP you may try but good luck!

nope bsp master has a flip option but if you try to spawn you fall right through the map (its thought that collision is one sided)

Juniorman030790 · Post by **Juniorman030790** » Fri May 05, 2006 3:37 pm

aww... that stinks. I wish it were 2 sided. That would rock to play foundation upside down.
