Patch: Flag fix patch for Silent Cartographer MP

Post by Spammy »

Alright...I have made a patch that:

-replaces the Banshees with Ghosts(So it doesn't lag; yes the pelicans are still there, but there are only 2 of them and it is not really that easy/practical to go higher than the top of the cliffs)
-adds a reticle to the energy sword
-fixes a problem I had with the nuke freezing the game whenever I picked it up(dont know if any of you had that)
-changes the flag spawn points to opposite bases(not the players spawns, just the flags)

Here it is:

Edit:Any suggestions where things should be placed as I think I have found a way to move things around(Vehicles, weapons, Players Spawns etc) Not the AI though.

Actually, I just figured out that Sparkedit 2.5 WILL open the level. I don't really like the controls for it but it is better than nothing.

Ok...first of all, this isn't my map. This is a patch I created for Swamp Foxes Silent Cartographer map. Second, you have to download the map from his thread. Sparkedit 2.5 is the only one that I have found that can open this map.

3.02 can, but takes a while though, but it can

Well, it is a ppf. Ppf-o-Matic should work.

3.02 does work? It always gives me an error when I try to open it. 2.5 just opens it nice and quickly too. Although I have to complain about it's controls.

You patch Silent Cartographer MP with this. As I have said, this is not the map itself...you can get that here:
http://files.halomods.com/viewtopic.php?t=14885

Then, just patch that mapfile with the patch in this thread to fix a problem with the flags spawning.

Also, I don't flame ppl for asking for help. That is just rude(unless it is a pathetic dumb question and I find the person annoying)

Well, you could just manually unreplace the banshees with ghosts.

Hmmm..I wasn't saying that the Banshees themselves lag the game...just that when ppl fly to a point where a lot of the island is showing on their screen, it lags, quite a bit.
