I have been wrecking my brain as to why my /generatetracemap isn’t working. I keep getting the message:
Need valid mapcoords in the worldspawn to be able to generate a tracemap.
I have chacked and double checked that my mapcoords are right, that they are square and that my map fits inside. If anyone could help it would be grateful.
BTW my map coords are top left:(-2600,7240) bottom right:(11000,-6360)
what do the mapcoordsmins and mapcoordsmaxs keys from your worldspawn look like?
mapcoordsmins -2600 7240
mapcoordsmaxs 11000 -6360
13,600 x 13,600 is square so it should work once entered properly. NO COMMAS.
mapcoordsmins -2600 7240
mapcoordsmaxs 11000 -636013,600 x 13,600 is square so it should work once entered properly. NO COMMAS
Thats what I have, thats why I’m confused…
delete the keys and save the .map and then re-load the map and re-enter those Keys. Save. COMPILE again.
OMFG IT WORKED! This is why I hate mapping at times. Stupid things like this keep happening. But hey I’m not gonna quit.
Thanks for your help!
My problem isnt directly related to ayatollahs but here goes. Everytime I load my map and compile it I need to type /generatetracemap in the console to generate the tracemap, even if I had done so before. So what I’m wondering is how do I keep the tracemap working so that I can package the map into a pk3 file so I can distribute it publicly?
/generatetracemap just tells the engine to generate a tracemap. It won’t refuse to generate one just because you already have one. When the game fires up, it looks to see if you have a valid tracemap [mapname]_tracemap.tga and if it finds one, it uses it.
I have a problem to:
how can i get my map to square: my map coordims are
mapcoordsmaxs: -2328 2448
mapcoordsmins:-688 544
I got those when i selceted the box where in side is my game and pressed q and then i got those nr., but how can i get those to square. (and can i just put some other nr there or the original nr should be there?)
