Map problem

Post by Adreniline »

My units and vehichles are not spawning, and there appears to be no reason why they shouldn't, can anyone help me?

I feel stupid asking for help because I've been a member for quite a while, but then again, it's my first map.

Also, after I get the above issue resolved, how do I change the lighting? (to make it look like nigtht time)

So your making a map Adreniline?

Well, are the vehicles and units listed in the sides REQ?

If you are referring to the req indside the custom sides "modid\sides\imp", I currently have no custom sides.

Also, units would spawn when i created it, but after i changed the map, they stopped spawning.

Have you made sure to list the vehicles in the (dc:) sides in your gamemode(s)'s .lua?

If i'm correct, "dc:" refers to custom sides (which i am not yet using)

If you mean otherwise, where would you locate it?

"dc:" actually refers to downloadable content, and I believe- correct me if I am wrong- that if you add something to a side that's not already there (ex. IMP side only has setup the six infantry classes and a destroyer_dome), like an AT-ST, you still have to put the "dc" and have all that unit's information (odfs, reqs, meshes) in your map's sides folder.

If I'm totally off the mark, it may be some other problem, like perhaps your vehicle spawns are below ground or something.

Ok, I think I see what you're getting at, but it might only solve half my problem.....

@Maveritchell - you don't need to do that if you are just adding thiongs from the assets, but If you wanted to add a vehicle and say, change its lazer color, then you would have to make a new side, and put "dc:"

"dc:" is just for custom sides

Indeed? Well, I stand corrected. Regardless, make sure the vehicles are listed in the .lua, dc: or not.
