.Map :: MoHAA Mapping

Hey,
I've read through so many posts now looking to see if this is covered already and as far as I see it's not (please forgive me if it is).

I've made a map (not bad too) and I've got a 15cm cannon in it. The prob surprisingly enough is actually nothing to do with blowing it up (as it blows up just fine), no it is indeed quite the opposite in fact. I can't make my bomb de-fusable please please can anyone help me.


Steve

Is this for mp? All you have to do is make the bomb thread global/obj_dm.scr::bomb_thinker

Welcome to .MAP Cool-Cat

1) See here, is this about what you have done so far?
2) Post your script so we can see what is wrong with it.

Darn forgot the welcome...

hey guys/gals ty for trying to help me.

ok the tutorial site you linked to is the site i used to make bomb.

here is my script :-

main:
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext1" "Plant Bomb to "
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext2" "Destroy the "
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext3" "15cm Cannon"
setcvar "g_obj_axistext1" "Defend Cannon "
setcvar "g_obj_axistext2" "Bomb cannot"
setcvar "g_obj_axistext3" "be de-fused"
setcvar "g_scoreboardpic" "none"
level waittill prespawn
exec global/DMprecache.scr
level.script = maps/obj/the_maze.scr
exec global/ambient.scr the_maze
// Initialize the exploder subsystem
thread global/exploder.scr::main
level waittill spawn
// Axis like the bombs unplanted
level.defusing_team = "axis
// Allies will try to plant the bombs
level.planting_team = "allies"
// Number of targets in this map
level.targets_to_destroy = 1
// Default damage of the bomb
level.bomb_damage = 200
// Default radius of bomb blast
level.bomb_explosion_radius = 2048
// Set the parameters for round based match
level.dmrespawning = 0 // 1 or 0 (0=no respawn)
level.dmroundlimit = 5 // round time limit in minutes
level.clockside = axis // axis, allies, kills, or draw
// Comment out this line to be able to set the bomb
// when alone on the map ( just for testing )
// level waittill roundstart
$panel_bomb thread global/obj_dm.scr::bomb_thinker
// "panel_bomb" is the targetname of a bomb in Radiant
thread allies_win_bom
// Start the win check thread for allies
// Start the win check thread for axis
$panel_bomb thread axis_win_timer

I hope you can help me.

Oops forgot to say yes map is for MP.

Steve

Might be this line:

thread allies_win_bom

The tutorial left out a "b". Check your bomb and trigger properties again, just to make sure.

Gee I cannot believe I missed that (missing "b").

I'm gonna try it. Could it really be that simple ? I hope so.

I'll let you know.

Thanks,

Steve

this did not fix it

sorry to take so long testing but i had to find a second player

please have you anymore ideas ?



Steve

I noticed in the tutorial (in script bit) it says miss off this line but which one? I wasn't sure.


Steve

You CAN test it alone because this line has the slash marks:

//level waittill roundstart

Switch teams to defuse the bomb, while testing alone. Remember to remove those slashmarks in your final script. You can remove all those othe comment lines, if you wish, but not that one.

Another syntax error:

level.defusing_team = "axis

It is missing an end quote. I'm sure that is the problem.

BTW - thanks for using my fold ladder in your map, Steve!!!! Do you hear background sounds in your map? If not, change this line:

exec global/ambient.scr mohdm1 // Wind sound from southern france map.

Wow I'm getting help from the guy who makes all the best inventions. Yippee thx Tom for ladder its gr8.


Big thanks for everyone who replied you all helped to fix my map.
p.s.
Is there somewhere I can send my map to show you ?



Steve

Just 1 more thing I can't do a loadscreen cos I can't make a 32bit tga is there another way ?




Steve

Zip up just the .map file and script and e-mail them to me.

Yes you can use a jpg image for the loading screen, but a couple of lines in the shader file have to be changed. Send all those files too, if you like.
