My first map not working HELP!

(blackadder34) #1

Hi

I bet this is a super dumb question. Its only my second day making maps!!

I’m just learning how to make maps for ET and I have made a really basic map. 4 walls a floor,
roof and a spawn point along with a little light and a few textures.

I compile my little map to /etmain/maps/map2.bsp and start the game. Then I read somewhere to type
/sv_pure 0
/g_gametype 2
/map map2

After this it starts to connect to localhost and says awaiting challenge. After a second or two I get the error “CM_LoadMap: maps/map2.bsp has wrong version number (46 should be 47)”. HELP what does the mean and how to I fix it.

It will only let me go back or reconnect.

Thanks in advance.

Hi!
How did you compile it? In editor?
46 and 47 is about what game the map is for.
If you use editor, did you set it up for wolf/et?

Thanks for the fast reply.

I’ll try to do it again and play with a few compile options.

iirc, version 46 = 2.55, version 47 = 2.56 and 2.60

Ok, I seem to have fixed that but now at the same point I get:

“Error info_limbo_camera with no target set”

Do I have to make a limbo carmera? If so how?

Using GTK Radient 1.5

thanks

The error is self explanatory. In this case, you don’t need a info_limbo_camera, so remove the entity. Press L and you should find it from the list, select it and press backspace to remove it.

You only need that entity if you want a limbo camera (which would be targeted to an info_notnull to get it working). That would be the camera that shows objectives at the bottom centre in the limbo menu.

Just made a new map seems to work it will load. But it crashes the game if I press (L) for limbo menu why? I made a team_CFT_redspawn and one for blue

You probably forgot to set the mapcoordsmaxs and mapcoordsmins

and you are testing on a 2.55 install otherwise you don’t have that problem :smiley:

update your mapping install (you have a seperate mapping install right ?) to 2.60, maps will still play on 2.55

/map map2

Change it to

/devmap map2

Sets you in dev postion + is less restrictive in errors. (Just a hint. Has nothing to do with your actual problem)

when radiant starts up be sure to select Wolfenstein Enemy Territory, I think this error is caused by compiling the map for the wrong game.
