Z Coordinate

Post by scubakobe »

Ok I was using the How To Spawn! tutorial and it said to guess the Z coordinate. I guessed it but when I load the map the object that I injected doesnt show up. I dont know if its because its below the ground or if I just didnt do it right.
Could I get some advice on how to get an accurate Z coordinate? :D

the z coordinate is height ... dont guess.. youll end up over the map , under... or you just dont spawn

open an untouched map and get the default z coordinate

like i had a problem on terminal where i was spawning under the map, then i got the default... and put that in.. but in my case i set it like 2 over the default so ppl fall from the sky :)

Yeah its hard to know what the default z cord is for a map but with my expirience in spawning. in mp maps its always been between -2 and 5 for the ground of a map.

somwthing like the tower on relic though would have a really high Z cord

One word

"XapienC"

That will solve your problem it has all 3 cordinates, X,Y, and Z. It is like sparkedit but for Halo 2 :lol: .

Hope this helps
