Editing shipped maps?

Post by giftheck »

Okay, I'm trying to edit the shipped maps. I understand to munge them I have to edit the munge.bat files, but this part I do not understand:

Code: Select all

REM Modders change this to point to new world
@call ..\munge_world.bat Mod1 Mod1
Is that the name of the world folder, or the .req file? I think it's the .req file but I'm not certain.

Yeah, but then you have to pretty much go one by one.

I was right anyways. For instance, to modify Bespin, in your ModID/_BUILD_PC/Worlds folder, you need a folder with the same name as the source world folder (IE "Bespin"). You also need a munge.bat and a clean.bat in there too, although the munge.bat needs to be modified to show this:

Code: Select all

REM Modders change this to point to new world
@call ..\munge_world.bat Bespin BES
And then the main munge.bat in _BUILD_PC needs to be modified to show this:

Code: Select all

cd Worlds
 cd Bespin
  @call munge.bat
cd ..
And it works too!
