still crashing in limbo

(LordHorror) #1

Ok, I made a little room with a light, team_ctf_redspawn und _bluespawn and added mapcoordsmin und mapcoordsmax to worldspawn
I called the map “first_project” :stuck_out_tongue:
So I created a shader called first_project_levelshots.shader in the scripts dir, put in:

levelshots/first_project_cc_automap
{
nopicmip
nocompress
nomipmaps
{
clampmap levelshots/first_project_cc.tga
depthFunc equal
rgbGen identity
}
}

levelshots/first_project_cc_trans
{
nopicmip
nocompress
nomipmaps
{
clampmap levelshots/first_project_cc.tga
blendfunc blend
rgbGen identity
alphaGen vertex
}
}

Then I made a black tga and called it first_project_cc.tga and put it in a dir called levelshots (that I created because there wasn’t any) in /etmain.
But the game still crashes when I try to enter the limbo menu … why that???
pls help :wink:
thx

did u check the invurable and start active in teh entity window of teh spawns ?

no, but did that now and it is still crashing

you have to set your map cords for it not to crash. you need a max and a min. it should work find after you set those. here is a test room i just did.

Could you provide that as a download so we could see what elements are needed in it? Thanks.

that would be nice

i set my coords already … they are
mapcoordsmins -512 512
mapcoordsmaxs 320 -320

Make sure you load your test map as follows:

/g_gametype 2
/sv_pure 0
/developer 1
/devmap testmapname

It is extremely important the sv_pure option if you are storing all your files outside of pk3’s.The limbo menu also needs spawn locations setup correctly. Check the ET reference manual on spawnpoints.

F33l the :moo:

i did all that sock ^^
and although the coords (maxcoordsmins and maxcoordsmax) were really a square it didnt work … now i took the coords from a given map and it works now … thx for the help

Does it crash if you remove “first_project_levelshots.shader” and try to just test the map as is with no bells and whistles?
