r_showtris 2 .....HELP!

[tltrude]

I can't get the cheats to come on so I can check my map with "r_showtris 2". Here is the target line of my desktop shortcut:

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\MOHAA\MOHAA.exe" +set cl_playintro 0 +set ui_skip_eamovie 1 +set ui_skip_titlescreen 1 +set ui_skip_legalscreen 1 +set developer 1 +set thereisnomonkey 1 +set cheats 1 +set ui_console 1

But, the game keeps saying r_showtris is cheat protected. I tried typing "set cheats 1" in the console and it says the cheats will be turned on after restart. So, I type in restart and try it again, but it is still cheat protected.

Then I made a new cfg file named tltrude.cfg and added the line seta cheats "1" to it. In the console, I typed "/tltrude.cfg" and then tried the r-showtris 2 again.......still cheat protected.

I have the developers console set to key F8, but the tris button does not work with the cheats off.

Any help would be great because this is driving me nuts!!!

You have to start the map with the devmap command.

Well that kind of works, but how do I run an objective map with it?

devmap obj/obj_dam2

Says I can't run an objective game with a non-objective game type. Also I want to be able to run around with tris turned on, if I can. I hate that developers console because it has to be turned off to move around. It would also be nice if I could get it to do the whole thing automatically from a desktop shortcut.

Type g_gametype 4 before starting an objective game. r_showtris is still on if you 'exit' the console

This is how I do it: I use this autoexec.pk3 in my Main (which will skip all intro movies and stuff; but can also be done with the commandline;) and use the following shortcut:

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\MOHAA\MOHAA.exe" +set developer 1 +set thereisnomonkey 1 +set cheats 1 +set ui_console 1 +set g_gametype 4 +devmap obj/obj_mapname

It's the same as jv suggested only this way it's just double click and you're set to go.

Thanks, using that targetline for a new desktop shortcut works great!

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\MOHAA\MOHAA.exe" +set cl_playintro 0 +set ui_skip_eamovie 1 +set ui_skip_titlescreen 1 +set ui_skip_legalscreen 1 +set developer 1 +set thereisnomonkey 1 +set cheats 1 +set g_gametype 4 +devmap obj/obj_dam2

So, which triss is the one that effects the FPS, 1 or 2? My guess is 2 because that's the one that can see through the walls, and the one that changes when I walk into a leafgroup.

Something is weird though, because things not in a targeted leafgroup vanish too. Terrain and far away things show up when I stand in one leaf and vanish in the next one closer to it. It's a real pain, because the FPS changes by 20 points between the two leafgroups. I wish I could figure this stuff out, because I still have to put the bots back in my map and that will kill the FPS, if it is not as low as possible.

What are bboxes?

[jv_map]

Yup showtris 2 is what you're looking for.

Bboxes are 'bounding boxes', simplified collission boxes around entities.
