Entity and the [itmc] tags

Post by XxD3ATHxX »

Ok I am having some real problems with replacing itmc under the [scnr] tag. I am trying to spawn a waterfall from Warlock. When I change the itmc of a needler or any weapon for that matter to the scen of the waterfall, it freezes the game. I dont get it?? But when I goto the actual [itmc] tag in Entity and switch a needler with the waterfall, it works fine. I just can't go to [scnr] and swap an itmc to that of a waterfall because it freezes the game. I have included a few pics to further explain what I mean.

I've had a similar problem myself, whenever i tried to switch anything in the [Itmc] tag it would always freeze too, so i just dont bother with it anymore, though it would be helpful if i knew why it froze in the first place :?

Well then don't do it through the scenario tag. Just make a new itmc and just add some chunks to Netgame Equipment...or scenery pallete.

Yeah, the reason it doesn't work is because ITMC and VEHC tags have values like the spawn time in them. If you swap for a tag that does not have this the game freezes because it tries to reference a non-existent value.

Just dup an ITMC and change that to whatever.
