Map freezes when adding scenery with entity.

Post by beware_of_gecko »

Im trying to add some fire from 06b_floodzone but what im doing doesnt seem to be working. Im opening 06b_floodzone in entity then i click parsed and recursive and save one of the fires then im opening my map (zanzi) and check parsed and recursive once again then i press build and everything goes well.Then i clone a scenery pallete and a scenery placement chunk and change it to the fire then link it with the meta editor, after i do all this it doesnt show up in the bsp viewer like other scenery and it freezes my map when i get to that spot.Can anyone help me with this ive been trying diff things and searching the forums but i cant find anything thats worked for me.

check sounds when you save, plus swap it with some other scenery, place that where you want your piece of scenery to be, then swap it back to the scenery that you want. This is because that piece of scenery is only an effect and since entity doesn't render effects, you can't see it.
