Coag Freezing in one part of the map.

Post by Scoliosis »

I used the detox method to inject some rain onto coag (gemini was used as the base map) and for some reason when ever i go near the shotgun rocks near the red base, my map will freeze. I dont know why. This doesnt happen anywhere else on the map, only at those three rocks. Has anyone else ever experienced a problem similer to this? and would anyopne know how to fix it?

anyone wanna actually contribute something valuable? such as possible causes. really, anything on topic other then i dont know would be helpful. and please keep in mind that a rock that is part of the bsp is freezing my map. Not any type of collection, vehicle or any other spawn.

I will, I guess. Detox's tool does that when you add weather to coag. You need to use the old version of h2core for the decompile and rebuild, that will work.

It isn't part of the bsp it's scenery.

If there's only one part of the sbsp which freeze i would say that there's something wrong in the sbsp meta.

It could be an environement sound of the sbsp, make a backup of your map and null out all the looping sounds(snde) on the scnr idents.
And it could be the ssce in the scnr, trying nulling out all those snde on the scnr idents.


Or...The weather can be applied to a specific part of the sbsp, so maybe there are wrong values on the meta of the sbsp.

Look on the sbsp meta for sbsp parts and weather reflexives like "weather polydreal"(name of the reflexive on the latest plugin found on Halo2Plugins site)
If you see strange values like "1.401298E-45" or "NaN" on the weather polydreal reflexive change it to a decimal number(0 per exmaple xD), only on this reflexive.

^^what are you talking about exactly?^^

i will check the sounds and null them all out and i will check all that other stuff and i will report my results. Thanks neodos

btw fox, i dont think detoxes tool caused this, but rather the building process of entity 1.3.9, but nonetheless the detox method is causing the freezing.

EDIT: k i got the map working. I used an older version of h2core and everything works great now. thanks fox. neodos, even though i didnt get around to trying your ideas i appriciate your help and suggestions. thanks guys
