Hello! Another question from fritz.

Hi,
I figured out how to use easygen thanks to you guys! :slight_smile: But now I need help with something else. Can someone tell me how to make a vehical in my map? That you have to repair and escort from one place to another? Or give me a link to a site that explains this?

Thanks People!

Jawohl!
I’m thrilled to see that you are progressing as a mapper. Isn’t mapping fun!
About vehicles: I have never done that (because I think it takes too much time). But, I would use the original goldrush.map, if I was going to do it. Just load up the goldrush.map in your editor and copy all entities for the tank (or the truck). And paste them into a small map (just to test it - to see that it actually works). You also need to copy the relevant script (from the original goldrush.script file), to make a new script for your test map.
Or, you could write a private message to another mapper. A mapper who has used a vehicle in a map. Just ask: “Do you have a vehicle-prefab, and can I have it, please?”. I do not have such a prefab, but perhaps someone else.
Good luck!

There is some kind of vehicle prefab.
I’ve seen a post here in the forums.
But can’t remember who has done it.

Thanks so much. I have posted on other forums about other things. But the map builders are the most helpfull and friendly by far.

Thanks Again,
Fritz!

P.S. I have one more question. It might sound dumb but… Could the map for GTA Vice City for PC be converted into an ET map?

yes it could, check all the legal stuff first, although you will have to manually draw everything because i dont think you can just copy the GTA map to ET, i dont know anything about that game, but i dont think its on the Q3 engine

that would be sweet! But think of the size of it and all the performance issues you would have! Also, remember how bad it is to move around on foot in GTA?
