I just looked at your .pk3, and without even loading the map, I see errors.

Dude, you need to make sure that your file names match.

You named your loading screen nazibunker.tga, but in your .shader, you have this- "clampMap textures/mohmenu/dmloading/testload.tga". You can't just copy the example shader from a tutorial and expect it to work.

You need to have it look like this-

clampMap textures/mohmenu/dmloading/nazibunker.tga

The folder that contains all your .shader files needs to be named 'scripts'. Yours was just named 'script'.

I'm going to go fix things up and see if it works now.

I'm sorry if I sounded like I was mad, because I wasn't. I was just typing things out as I found them.

I mailed you the updated .pk3, and the screen is now working.

Axion · Post by **Axion** » Mon Mar 08, 2004 2:05 am

Really?

Mail it to me again, and I'll double check it once more.

Hey, the .pk3 you emailed me again worked for me on the first try. I don't understand why the screen wou;d show up for me and not for you...

perhaps he still has his .map file and other files still in the dm folder, that might be conflicting with the .pk3 file?

It's better than anything I can think of, so go ahead and make sure you only have the .pk3 file in your main folder. Get rid of the .bps and .scr files if they are in your maps folder.
