Um...I can add chunks just fine. I haven't tried overwriting chunks though.

I have a problem. After I rebuilt my map and whatnot, the program replaced my MP scenery with scenery from my BSP. That means I lost flag_base and 2wayteleporter. To get these back, could I just add chunks to the scenery pallete?

pokecancer · Post by **pokecancer** » Sun Mar 11, 2007 4:22 pm

yeah im gonna fix the fact that it deletes the flag base and teleporter in the next version but for now use the object relocator, just open the orginal scenario you decompiled and take them from there.

Hmm... I'm still getting black screen if I spawn anywhere except the hotel. And walking from the hotel freezes...

I've nulled out every sound, including sound enviornments and sound scenery.

Just wondering pokecancer, does the rebuilder compile sounds perfectly? I wonder because they seem to work but if so, why would I have to null out sounds?

i think everyone who has had a successful sp>mp conversion is having sound tag issues, i know that every conversion ive done,(10-12 playable) there were SOME sounds corrupt/wrong/missing, so there is a problem with that part of the builder. So, some sounds works. Some sounds dont.

Not sure if this is helpful, but Pokecancer needs all feedback on errors, otherwise, how would he improve his app? I still love this app, even if there is some errors. I just think of where we will be in 4-6 months.

Yeah he does. I've gone as far as realtime debugging to look for them. And the app is still great.

Something else must be wrong with the map, thought. All nulled sounds, yet freezing.

And the only thing there is spawns.

No I mean chunks I can clone in a retail map(objective locations, mach placement etc...) kill my rebuilt maps when I try to clone them; I have to rebuild the map after I've added a chunk with entity to get it to work.

Yeah, it killed mine. Why would if it it is proper? Anyways, can H2G clone the chunks before rebuild. Hell, I bet I could hex it from the decompiled tags.

Alright, so I replaced a tag in the scenery pallette with the flag_base tag, and for some reason, it's not showing up on my map. It is in a place where it should be in clear sight, but it's just.. not there. It's also invisible in my BSP viewer.. I mean, you can move it and such, but when you select it it's just a box of nothing.

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm an idiot. I just realized that it actually deleted the tags.

Ok guys, here is a video of my oversize sp to mp conversion. Just proving what i have said. So theres 3 of us, I gave the other 2 guys an sppf patch, Nailz hosts, starts a game, Toast joins a game in progress, then i join the game in progress. We all get in a warthog, and drive thru sp loading points, and we dont freeze or anything, whether we are together in a warthog, or on opposite ends of the map.

Well, I don't plan to add and copy 320 scenery placements, 52 scenery palettes, and 180 obstacle placements. Unless you let whats-his-face release the version with the copy all button...

Nice, was all you needed a SBSP chunk clone?

eternal · Post by **eternal** » Mon Mar 12, 2007 7:23 pm

just to clarify:

my map movie is from one bsp. latinomodder is loading 2 bsp's. i just found out there was some confusion on that.

Not trying to sound like a dick in any way, but what was the purpose of the pictures (besides the peach dessert

)? Was it for the previous post?

I rebuilt one map sucessfully, and now the rebuilder took a crap and won't let me rebuild anything even though they are fresh maps.

Is there a temp file I have to delete or something to get it working again? Please let me know, Thanks.
