Re: Mapping Q&A

I have unzipped the vehicles folders and put them in one but when i come to create a vehicle spawn point it does not show any vehicles at all.

any help would be great as I have got all the other objects and I can see all the vehicles in the resource tab.

Re: Mapping Q&A

You can't put vehicles on the map directly, you have to place them as ObjectSpawners. Set the editor to Level Editor, place a Control Point, right-click where you want the vehicle, and choose "Place ObjectSpawner" or something like that. A window will pop up with no choices, hit cancel. There should now be a cyan box where you right-clicked. Select it and choose vehicle type from the Tweaker bar.

Re: Mapping Q&A

Question: How do I turn my map into an objective map? Ie. "Destroy all of this unit type (deflection tower, corvette or whatever) to win"?

EDIT:

[23:06]    <Imperial>    it's basically just like pushmap
[23:09]    <Imperial>    the vehicle needs _team1objective at the end of the name or _team2objective
[23:09]    <Imperial>    that's it
[23:09]    <Imperial>    so, if you want imps to need to destroy freerunner
[23:10]    <Imperial>    name the freerunner
[23:10]    <Imperial>    freerunner_team2objective
[23:10]    <Imperial>    and if the imps destroy it, game ends
[23:10]    <Imperial>    It's not super secure
[23:10]    <Imperial>    But it's pretty good


Many thanks smile .

Re: Mapping Q&A

Question: How do I make trees and the like appear on the minimap? I tried moving them to 500 meters height, didn't work. Will lightmapping the map fix this?
