Desperate plea for help

Can someone make a simple enclosed map with a flak cannon with a working timer that will explode.

I have treid several attempts to follow different tuts and none work. It makes it even harder when i cannot test these with others to see if they work.

I have // the level waittill roundstart and still cannot ge the bomb to work.

I am at wits end with this and am very frustrated because i have followed several tuts that all show diff ways and triple checked my work and still have a had no luck. If someone would please help, i could visually see a CORRECT working version to learn from, instead of hoping the tuts haven't left things out and waiting weeks for no replies to my questions.

Please please please....someone help me. If someone will help can you please make it into a pk3 file and send the .map seperately?
The reason i ask is i haven't figured out which proggie you can use to open the .scr.(wont let me select notepad) I can only open the .scr when it comes from a pk3 opened with winrar.

Again, i plead....can someone please help me

If you wish to help post reply here and i will send you a PM with my email address. thx

Try opening CONTROL PANAL in windows,and choose folder options.On the tab called file types,you can add new file extensions.SCR files are the same extension as screensavers.So when you add it to new it might complain,but do not worry.It will not effect how your screensaver displays in windows.At least thats how its done in XP,I assume it is the same in previos versions of windows.

Other file types like tik,urc,mus,shader,etc can also be viewed with notepad.

Another way would be to rename the file so that it is .txt file then open it.But this would be the least prefered way.Then change it back to scr.

As for your main problem,I would give it a try,But I am sure someone will answer you before I can.

I did try Nemesis....are you supposed to be able to set the bomb? I see the AI soldier next to the gun, but cannot set the timer.
