Hi there.
A friend of mine and me are making a map that has two height levels, and i read somewhere that it is possible to have up to 3 command maps for a map, but how does this work, cause i cant find any info on that.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Updated our site btw, so have a look 
We are calling our map âRocket Baseâ
the lighing in your map is good 
makes everything look secretive 
about the multiple command map:
Are you sure this isnt a rumour? have you seen it in practice (have you played in a game with it)
Yes it is possible, hereâs the word from djbob:
In worlspawn:
âcclayersâ key must be set to the number of levels you want
&
âcclayerceilXXXâ set to the height of the ceiling for that layer
where XXX = 0 to numlayers - 1
Instead of calling the commandmap shaders âlevelname_ccâ âlevelname_cc_transâ and âlevelname_cc_autmapâ
use âlevelname_XXX_ccâ etc
where again XXX = 0 to numlayers - 1

Thx alot for the reply Fluffy. but i dont understand this bit, must be cause im Dutch 
where XXX = 0 to numlayers - 1
And i know the map looks dark, but when ingame its lighter then the screenshots i make
Your layers are numbered starting at zero. So where he put XXX you will have number from zero to one less than the what you put in for cclayers.
Or maybe Iâm all wrong and the next splash game will be an XXX product 
where XXX = 0 to numlayers - 1
xxx = 0 to numlayers - 1
picture it like such
xxx = 0 to (numlayers - 1)
for numlayers = number of layers used
define numlayers as the number of layers you have for command maps
subtract one
then you have xxx
much like starting to count with 0 instead of 1
so,
Layer0
Layer1
Layer2
instead of
Layer1
Layer2
Layer3
atleast, thats what i think they meantâŚ
i am not a mapper, but would someday, like to wake up and dream
Ok it seems i cant get it to work 
i have my shaderfile for the map with the following:
levelshots/rocketbase_1_cc_automap
{
nopicmip
nocompress
nomipmaps
{
clampmap levelshots/rocketbase_1_cc.tga
depthFunc equal
rgbGen identity
}
}
levelshots/rocketbase_1_cc_trans
{
nopicmip
nocompress
nomipmaps
{
clampmap levelshots/rocketbase_1_cc.tga
blendfunc blend
rgbGen identity
alphaGen vertex
}
}
levelshots/rocketbase_0_cc_automap
{
nopicmip
nocompress
nomipmaps
{
clampmap levelshots/rocketbase_0_cc.tga
depthFunc equal
rgbGen identity
}
}
levelshots/rocketbase_0_cc_trans
{
nopicmip
nocompress
nomipmaps
{
clampmap levelshots/rocketbase_0_cc.tga
blendfunc blend
rgbGen identity
alphaGen vertex
}
}
In the worldspawn i have the following values added
Key = cclayers
value = 2
key = cclayerceiling0
value = 600
key = cclayerceiling1
value = 1200
i have 2 TGA piccies called
rocketbase_0_cc.tga
rocketbase_1_cc.tga
my map has 2 levels and u start at the top level, but when i start the game it shows the pic from the bottom level
And i get this error
No valid command map layer for z
So if anyone could help me out here, i would really apreciate it!
Thx in advance!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH :banghead:
Thx alot Chavo!
Hey all.
Got a problem. The map iâm doing has multiple levels and i have the multiple commands maps workingâŚetc.
Problem is there are objectives on all levels/layers. They all only show up on the top level/layers command map though. I thought it would be automatic as i went from level to level the objectives would appear on that level/layers command map as the CM switched. The command map markers are within the specified layer.
Any ideas what i need to do to make the objectives show on the command map for that particular level/layer?
so they are all showing on the top layer? but if you go down a layer they all disappear? or do they all show stillâŚ
i understand what your getting at thoughâŚ
The command map will only show things that are on that level. So if all your objectives are on the ground level and you go down into the tunnels, you wonât see any CM markers
i just did a quick test, 2 levels with 5 command map objectives, 4 on the top and 1 on the bottom⌠when i start out, only 1 shows on the top and the rest donât when the other 3 should⌠and as i drop down a level the one i put down there shows as well as the other 3 from the top⌠and the original one that was showing on the top disappears⌠really wierdâŚ
this is something i have to figure out, as my map has 2 levels that i want seperate command maps forâŚ
Are you setting the height of your layer ceilings correctly? If you donât correctly measure how high the ceiling is for a layer, then the command markers might get placed on the wrong layer.
Hmmm⌠CM markers are within the correct layers. Theres 3 layers⌠objectives on each. But all show on top layer⌠none on the other layers as i move down. They disappear. HmmmâŚ
What values are you setting your ceilings to and do the player icons show up on the correct layers as you move through the map?
Player icon show up correctly. Maps change when i want them to. Just all objectives are on top layer. The Objective on lowest layer is low enough that the CM marker shouldnât show on top layer.
cclayers 3
cclayerceil2 1920 (top)
cclayerceil1 -1000 (middle)
cclayerceil0 -1920 (lowest)
If you want an example of multiple command mpas then check out Byzatinne (or however you spell it). This map uses two command maps, one for above ground and one for below
I did check it out and theres nothing any different from what i did. Theres no objectives in the tunnels in byzantineâŚall are up top so it didnât help in figuring out whats up with this problem.
