.bsp file not there

Post by aLpHa2 »

Ok guys i have a prob. I save my map name MyFirstMap.map into the directory main\maps\dm. Then while im in MOHAA Radiant I go up to the button that says Bsp. I select bsp, vis, then light. Then i exit out of mohaaradiant. Then i start up Mbuilder. I already have all of the dirctories set up. MOHAA installed(default);MBuilder(where i have mohaaradiant ) Map source (main\maps\dm). I then go to options and check it as a team DM map. Then i build map. It works. Then i go to EA GAMES\MOHAA\main\maps\dm and is see the following files and folders:
MyFirstMap.bak MyFirstMap.map MyFirstMap.bat and the folder snapshots.
The i start up mohaa ansd start my own game. I go to teamdm and then to select map. I see dm1 dm2 dm3 dm4 dm5 dm6 dm7 and sometimes the folder snapshots but not MyFirstMap.bsp. I tried renaming the .map file into a .bsp file but when i start up the map MyFirstMap.bsp it sends me strait back to the main menu. Please tell me what the prob is or send me your own tutorial for me. Im desperate. dillsnow02@msn.com

what are you selecting bsp vis and light for? you don't need to. And if the compiling dos screen flashes, then thats bad. Make sure to relocate to where your radiant is.

you must compile it, not rename it.
Live to map, not map to live.
