Getting a turret in game

noobsrus · Post by **noobsrus** » Mon Dec 11, 2006 4:19 pm

I've made a turret and made all of the tags including the .vehicle, .gbxmodel, .model_animations, .weapon, .bitmap, and .shader model for it. So, how do I actually get it in game?

I followed a tut on making a custom turret (from scratch), and so whats the next step to getting it in game after making the tags because the tut wouldn't tell me. Am I suposed to use sapien for it or HHT or what?

OHHHHH!! you import the vehi in sapien too get it in the level. i thoght you were talking about something else.

decompile it.

this is probably a n00b question. But, how do you decompile it?

Get HEK+, open Bloodgulch in it, and extract all the tags. (make sure overwrite is off for best results)

Isn't Hek+ just a combination of things like Tool++ and stuff?

No. HEK+ is a program for extracting tags from compiled maps.

ok, do I need the regular hek in order to use hek+?

no but you need regular hek to use the stuff it extracts.
