We'll need an error log to deal with that. Many things can crash the game, so we need a way to narrow down the possibilities.

ok, i got everything working. normally i would think it best to lock this topic, but JUST in case i come across another problem, ill keep it unlocked. oh, and does anyone know how to screw with the settings so like, troopers can have infinite stamina or jet troopers can have infinite jet fuel?

ok, just one more question and i'll be fully content...what is/how do you use a terrain cutter? this might be a nooby question but none of the other forums(that i found) or the readmes in the mod tools thing really explained this. im guesing its used to make hills and mountains and stuff, right? but anyways, please tell me where it is found/what it is used for/how to work it.

Terrain cutters do just that. They cut a hole in the terrain, which is convenient for making tunnels inside hills, and the like. Usually, these are embedded in a msh, like the Hoth tunnel entrance. I believe FragMe! made some standalone terrain cutters, so use the following thread to locate them, or try the released assets subforum.

ok, so terrain cutters cut through mountains and stuff, but how do u make mountains? cuz i never really see a "mountain" msh or odf file, and my maps end up having the looks of a platform floating in space or can terrain cutters also make mountains?

You use Zeroeditor height controls to make "mountains and stuff." See here.

Exactly. Just change the Foreground and background bars in ZE to however high you want your "mountain", hit enter and go off creating the Himalayas of SWBF2.

Errr... All of this stuff is covered in the docs that come with the tools. You just have to read them.

well, sorry if its in the documentation...i read it and re-read it, but i dont recall ever seeing something about mountains...but thanks though.

that thing happends at me to.
how to fix that because i dont understand it really

i placed everything in the /modid/worlds/modid folder
then placed them in my map again but they didnt showed up when i was playing the map

did you make an msh and odf folder in the data_XXX/worlds/data_XXX/ folder?
if you dont understand the docs, look onto the shipped map's assets

yes i placed them there.
whit the files from the healt droid and the ammo droid im them.
then i placed the droids.
but they still dont show up.


Edit
okey
i started an new map called zzz
i munged it all also in the data_zzz/_build
so how do i start now.....
maybe i did something wrong last time.

so you had the ammodroids .odf in the odf folder and its .msh and .tga in the mesh folder?

how come when i add turrets, none of them show up during gameplay? maybe i added them wrong, but what i did was import them to my mod from Data_***\sides\tur\ is there something else necessary for them to work?

you have to load the turrets in the lua
its stored in dataXXX/Common/Scripts/XXX
then open the lua you want (XXXc is clonewars, XXXg is galactic civil war,
_con is conquest, _eli is heroassault...)
and browse to the part and anter the name of the turret
if you placed the geonosisturret in your map
then change the entry above to this:

so in need to make an mesh folder at the same place and put in the .msh and .tga from the droid in there?


Edit
can u maybe give me a lill overview of what maps i need to copy to where
when i just munged it all.
and what has to be in the maps

warofchaos wrote:so in need to make an mesh folder at the same place and put in the .msh and .tga from the droid in there?

yes, thats it otherwise it wont work
the .msh is the model, the thing you see ingame, if you just place properties (odf) with their physical appearence missing, its logical that you wont see anything

they still dont show up in my map
i putted them in my map whit ZE
the .tga and .msh files and in the mesh map
and the odf in the odf folder
something more i need to do to make them show?

what do you mean with meshmap?

mesh folder then
you know where the .msh and .tga must be in
