your pmi'ing the wraith?

you add wraith.mod2.meta in the big white box.
then ad BG.verticies, BG.indicies, and BG.sbsp in their respective boxes

you corrupted the build tree.file first time you f**d up. go to your C:\ drive and delete it.

do the rebuild again HMT will write a new one.

okay, thanks ill try it. oh and by the way i like your live target range mod DECOY :)

woot i got the map to rebuild. so what i did was copy the wraith meta over the scorpion meta. BUT i cant play the map (bloodgulch)and even without copying the meta i cant play the map do u guys know whats wrong?

YAY I FINALLY PMI'd. thanks for all your help guys.

I tried to PMI a pelican in bloodguclh this morning and it didnt work (exeption data). but i also recall reading something that says trying to pmi a pelican in bloodgulch doesnt work. Is that correct?
