Objects in ET maps - Mimus - 20-03-2016

Heya,

im struggling a bit with some idea i got lately that i wanted to try out this week.

I would love to find a way to add objects (like e.g. a bush or a chest, small stuff) into ET maps. The objects dont need to be clipped or anything (im fine with walking through them), i just want them to be able to be seen by players ingame.

Unfortunately I dont know anything about mapping and stuff, all i know is that some peeps of you know stuff :P and that, maybe? you can even solve that issue not with editing an existing map, but with mapscripts like we have the invisible wall on fueldump?

If all fails i would be just as fine if someone could help me to stick some picture of a bush or a chest to a wall on a map - that would be enough to make me happy :P

Mimi

PS: Im atm even failing at the start, i dont even know how to open a map-file from my ET directory as a .map instead of...idk..bsp or sth?

Do you mean something like this ?

If yes, then you have two choices to do it, either by decompiling the map, or adding it by script.

I'll be glad to help you if you need. Biggrin

Oh yeah, it would be awesome if you could help me. What option would you prefer/suggest, decompiling or script? I heard decompiling is difficult/tends to lose stuff, while i also know moanraker does script things so naturally I would go into the script-direction, about which i unfortunately know as much as about the other things in mapping -> nothing xD

Are u trying to make a easter map with egg's ?


RE: Objects in ET maps - Mimus - 21-03-2016

Nope, just interested in stuff since idk if u remember but i tried working with females models but it ddnt work due to the bonestructure n stuff, so now i go lower and wanted to try sth more easy, hoping adding a little object in a map is less difficult than making a whole map xD
