You need to get the SP widget tags.

Rip them from a solo PC map.

I found that problem

Post by Matooba »

Ok, I fixed that problem, I went back into guerilla and changed solo to multiplayer under the sky tag.
1 Problem left, When I start my map it gets all the way to "Waiting for space to clear" But never starts the game.
All starting points are in the clear and I even raised the starting points up off the ground a little to be sure.
I made a short video of the problem happening if anyone wants to look at it to help.

You didn't set spawn points for your selected gametype.

And the game will crash if you try to run under a gametype you didn't set netgame flags for.

Did you read ANY tutorials on using Sapien? The Official HEK Tutorial goes over this exact section of map building in excruciating detail...

I fixed that

Post by Matooba »

No I got that fixed. It was under the sky tag in guerilla. I forgot to change Solo to multiplayer.
But when I start the map I made under slayer/lan It starts me in the middle of the map, Not at the bases and Just locks at "waiting for space to clear". I double checked all aspects of starting points (ie..0 or 1 , All games...)and reduced them to just 2. Also,I raised the starting point off the ground cuz I start half in the ground and half out.
Do I need to recompile the map?
I recorded a video of whats happening, If you'd like to see?

UPDATE

Ok, found out that I was starting where the Graph Grid from 3dsmax is on the level I made. So I raised the level to make it inside map then I pressed G-Key to remove it. I resaved, deleted old tag files and recompiled map all over again. Now I'm in the map but still sticks at "Waiting For Space To Clear" but never starts. I have a sound_environment tag warning. Could this be my problem due to the fact that you usually hear the countdown beeps just before you enter the map? How do I add Sound_environment tag to level? I didnt see that under the "Beginner Guide". Can I find it somewhere else?
Any help appreciated.
