My strangets fail yet

Lets make this my third consecutive SP->MP screw-up [sarcasim]lets see if we can make it four[/sarcasim]

Heres the deal, I can open the map in spark-edit, and look at every singe model and everything without crashing. However, the map, instead of having its normal grass and etc. skins, it has these skins replaced with wraith skins and banshee skins, so everything is purple. To top this off, a pretty exception error every time I try to open it up.

I have absolutely no clue what the hell kind of problem this is or how it happened, anyone who does?

BTW, I did it to b30_a to overwrite BG

dunno, try again with a different bsp... see if you have any luck. once you get the models to show, you are close

THe models are showing, I can open it in SE, I don't crash on any of the models, but when I get ingame EXCEPTION

I'm sick of trying and ending up failing just so I can say I wasted my time. If I'm ever gonna get good at modding, I gotta figure out what the hell I'm doing wrong...

What bsp are you doing?

he said, b30a

Some SP>MPs just flat out don't work. Some partially work bu t end up with corrupt models/textures. That is why I say to try again with a different BSP. To be honest, I used to do BSP conversions every once in a while, and 4/10 times, they would end up corrupt, and I had one that just exceptioned. Keep at it, don't give up.

And although HMT is a great program, it is:

So it can mess up depending on the files you're working with

Try keys exterior>infinity that one worked for me, so you shouldn't have any problems
