The map is b40.map, and the part i want the spawn points to be are in the first part you see when you open sparkedit, there are two "sides", one of them leads into a tunnel, the other is just there. Thanks alot, by the way, if you can get this to work.

While doing the SP-MP conversion, When i go to edit the SP XML file, instead of saying rncsyyyyyyy, with the funny looking y's, it's rncsAAAAAAA with a bunch of funny looking a's.


Is that bad, cause every tutorial says its supposed to be y's. And all i get are a's.


Edit:

Here's what it looks like

Code: Select all

I've already re-rebuilt the map twice, it still does the same thing everytime.

Map= B40 AOTCR.
Im getting the exact same thing DeadHamster, I've moved some blue spawn points and their not there when i open my halo map.

Edit: scratch that, they are on my sparkedit map, but their not ingame, I still spawn in the black, its really weird.

problem with your comp?

are you the administrator. That shouldnt change anything but you never know.

This looks more like an HMT problem.
