New mapper! Need Help!

Post by Patroclus »

Ok, I'm not exatly new, but it has been a long time since I mapped and I have run into some difficulty...

My problem is, that after I have made a map and compiled it, I try to run it and it loads ok, but then when I spawn in it, I fall right through the grass and keep on flling forever and ever, I have tried several thing but nothing works. I am running it in breakthrough but compiling as a spearhead or AA map does not change the problem...

Please help me!

Is your player start point above the grass?

Or is your grass nonsolid? Check in the radiant by pressing 's' and looking where the ticks are :wink:

unfortunatley those are the only things i can think of that could happen...

Hope it helps,

Move your spawn spots to new locations and make sure they are at least 4 units above the ground. It could also be the texture you choose for the grass.
