Help, map wont load right

Post by sharpshot7 »

When I used entity to drag and drop the gravity gun for coagulation into gemeni the map doesn't load anymore. It says waiting for everyone to load the map or something like that then the screen goes black and i return to the pregame lobby. Can someone help me fix this.

no drag & drop sometimes doesn't work right in entity, you need to goto the gravity gun tag check all the check boxes on the side thing, hit save, save it, goto your map, hit build, chose the info file you just saved, and then it goes into your map without problems.

what said that? and next time use the edit botton, and make sure you try on a map that you didn't try to drap & drop it into.

I can't help you withthat one, try some other proggies, c if they can open it, if not you're going to have to start with a clean map or a version of your mod that will open and such.
