.Map :: MoHAA Mapping

Yep cool idea i'll remember that one Tom

err no lizard

the water is all that moves, the ground under is still stationary so you can still walk on it and not get swept away, the idea is if you fall in the water ya drown so it really wont affect it ... cool idea though....

Thanks Tom,

The deleted segments appear yellow in colour almost transperant, with the edit contol window open, ie ctrl +shift click. if i slelect them without that window yes they appear the same as the rest of the patch as you described.

However the texture does not look the same deselected. ie ...

Hey Guy's

If you edit the facet flags in lod ie delete a few, i understand that they are not really deleted and you can get them back, or can you ?

If so how is that done ?.. I see they turn sorta yellow and some of them (if not most) remove the texture but others dont.. Is that a problem or ...

well i got the issue with showtris sorted out, for some reason i used my other instal for testing instead of my mapping install and it was, an opengl thing.. moved it over to the mapping drive and is now all okay..

So yes jv & bd you are both correct in what you have suggested there is a real ...

ok then well i guess this question may be like asking how long is a bit of string..

How many should i aim for before it gets risky tom..

umm just a follow up compile says


Total models lit 364
Total vertecies lit 70894
Total vertecies that were in Solid Leafs 1062

Data Size 275446 bytes

This was just before calc light & diffuse grids

and vis size is approx 600k (have to check agn to be sure)

So i dunno if that helps any one ...

Yup ok...

one thing i have noticed was when using r_showtris 2 it's like washed out to the max as if something has cranked up the brightness level...

r_showtris 3 no diff just a few xtra colors there...

When i started out on this map i checked that and i could at least still see the brushes ...

hmm well i have your prefab of bots in there tucked away outa site.. but it was ok with them in there before... so i dont think it's them...

Can i get away with some hint brushes perhaps ?, cause i dont understand the whole concept of vis leafs yet .. I guesse i have some learning to do...

yes ok ... that would explain it then cos it started to happen after i added another room to the map underground... i reverted to an old save without that room and it didnt happen...

I have no vis_leafs in there as yet... best i start then

thanks for the reply mate...

Hi guys can anyone suggest where i should start to look for what is causing this error.

"Spherical lighting: Ran out of space in the sphere array!"

wow !! never seen it before but, then again i am new to this....

I do have a few red lights around bunker caged lights, with the the light set to ...

Not much to say connect_paths connects the nodes just tell the script_objects to connect_paths so the path will join through them

BDB tried that ..... nodes still do not join... keep on getting error



^~^~^ Path not found in 'Actor::MoveToPatrolCurrentNode' for (entnum 362, radnum -1 ...

alrighty well i did this

shrunk down the script object (ie gates) with heaps of room from ground up to bottom of gates . re position the nodes, and recomplied. ran map . checked routes and still no joins. not even one way like before

however after the objects were removed in game by blowing them ...

ok is that every time the map loads ? , i understood it was made once unless an alteration was made to the layout.. ok will try it.. perhaps like you say leave em poen at start/ or maybe remove all together and then run so .pth file is made and puttem back maybe..

so is it that simple ? to say ...

aaaah now that may be the thing i am after bd.. need you to elaborate a bit more..

I have a bit more to add to this, they are not rotating doors just brushes with door and gate textures on them and are script_objects..

So 2 brushes with the gate like texture on both sides.. at 1st i had nodraw ...
