You have to put in the mapcoordinates.
Have sent you the file on mail.

Do i need to put it all to a script file??

(Shaderman) #4

No.

The mapcoords have to be set in worldspawn. You can edit the keys/values of the worldspawn with a single brush selected and hitting ‘N’. Every map must not have more than one worldspawn.

In Radiant 1.5 there’s a plugin to calculate and set the mapcoords automatically (Plugnis - SunPlug - ET-Mapcoordinator).

Btw please read the first post of this thread.

I really don’t know why people get all these errors?

I never had any of these problems, and all ever put in my map is team_WOLF_objective, blue spawnpoint and info_player_deathmatch entities…
no mapcoords or whatever (at least not during testing i mean ofcourse… i do put them in when i need the command map)

That’s because he’s doesn’t seem to use W:ET 2.60. That version had no problems with incorrect map coords.

yep i have 2.55 :stuck_out_tongue:
And btw:There is so much writing in that file magic sent me…I dunno how to put it to key and value lol… :oops:

Constra, this is very simple to do, you’ll find that a lot of tutorials will show you how to do it.

Thats the thread with a list of tutorials.

Tutorials are the best way to learn. If you cant find out how to do something in a tutorial, then try the search function on the forum. If you STILL cant find anything, then post your question.

Also, you should get 2.60b :confused:

GL HF mapping :slight_smile:

Here is your map for download http://www.speedyshare.com/743425713.html - is ready for compiling

In your map are missing mapcoordinates . Always enter mapcoordinates, click ( shift ) on brush in front of you ( floor, ground) , pop up window
to key type mapcoordsmins
in value type this coordinates ( it is up - left axis X and up + axis Y )
And second to key mapcoordsmaxs
in value ( it is up right axis X and down axis Y )
in your map ( click on floor and you see what i type in window )
key mapcoordsmins
value -256 384 ( press enter )

key mapcoordsmaxs
value 1200 -130 ( press enter )

Sorry for my english, Hope that you understound

For good links on tutorials visit my web I collected them http://www.kic.ic.cz/links.htm

Okey got it now.But…Do i need to set it to all the things???Or only floor and wall?

(Kic) #13

No click on 1 piece of brush ( it must not be model or something what is constructible and so on) it can be little stone or 1 triangle of brush ( wall, floor, ground ) …

Dan sounds diffucult.But so basicly i only need to do it on 1 wall for exmaple?:stuck_out_tongue:

Actually you have to choose a structural brush.
And you add these options to the worldspawn entity.

A simple trick to quickly see the mapcoords(mins/maxs) is:

  1. If you don’t have it already, enable the “Display Size info”.
    Go to Edit -> Preferences -> 2D Display/Rendering and check “Display size info”.

  2. Draw a large brush around your complete map, make sure EVERYTHING is inside this brush when viewed from top-down. So it doesn’t matter if it’s 100 km above your map, all that matters is the top-down view.

  3. On the top-left corner of this brush, you should see the coordinates.
    In my example (Goldrush): x: -4464 y: 4376
    This is your “mapcoordsmins” (top-left corner coordinate).

  4. With this brush still selected, press N.
    In the entity window, enter:
    Key: mapcoordsmins (watch the spelling!)
    Value: -4464 4376

  5. Deselect the brush and close the entity window.

  6. Create another brush, doens’t matter what size, at the lower-right corner of the previous large brush.
    This brush should also display coordinates, which are your “mapcoordsmaxs”.
    Press N again and enter:
    Key: mapcoordsmaxs
    Value: 3848 -4432 (in my example)

  7. Delete the two brushes, you don’t need them anymore.
    You stored the mapcoordsmaxs/mins in the entity called “Worldspawn” and not in one single brush, so it doesn’t matter that you delete them.

Alot of thanks do you man!Respect!:slight_smile:
Now got it done!:).Now need to learn lots of more.Want to make a map like ET_beach lol but only with a tank :D:D.Need to learn how to do the way of the tank(where does the tank move)And how to do it like that that tank destroys the gate.Like in gold rush :slight_smile:
