Time spent generating z-values: 0 secs.
Time spent compressing: 0 secs.Hi, I have recently completed (well, nearly) a map for ren.
It would be practically complete if I could get the Harvester to follow its waypath!
I know how to mkae it follow a waypath, by Generating Sectors, but for some reason, it is not allowing me to! Crying or Very Sad

Crying or Very Sad

Here is a SS of what you see for about 2 seconds, then that window disappears:

I also checked the log at the bottom of the window and it says this:

Can anybody tell me what I have to do in order to give it a shunt up the ass in order for it to slow my pc down to generate its sectors?

Thanks

Did you place those 2 powerplants together so it seems like they're connected at the doors? O_o

It takes ages to get correct though.
But I did strike it lucky with the GDI PP's as I placed them correctly the first time round. Although it did take about 10 attempts to get the Nod PP's correct Razz

Are you serious? Does it still act like a normal building? Show up on the K and M or L list (I don't remember which), and have a MCT? Maybe a tiny tutorial? I'm sure alot of people would be most grateful!

Surprised

I am afraid it won`t show up, and can`t be used for a real C&C mode map... it will blow up after it`s destroyed. Crying or Very Sad

Maybe if someone could make a good kill explosion for them... like the turret and SAM site... if you know what i mean.

Just import each powerplant w3d as terrain, then make the terrain, and go to edit>make terrain selectable. Then you can move things around, like the powerplant, but also the rest of your map, so, be careful.

Hmm, if the buildings blew up, wouldn't this be like classic C&C? Shocked

I mean, on every C&C game except for ren, when buildings blew up, they "disappeared". :yell:

But we will be having PT`s that just... hang there :rolleyes:

Like i sead, a new kill explosion will fix a lot, this way you could make it so that all of the high parts of the building are destroyed, but some parts still lay around, so that the PT`s can still be used.

But making something like that is hard.... i think *hides*

And yea, i know it`s more like classic C&C, but i since it won`t need those bleu things (don`t know real name, those things that make buildings work) i think it won`t work the way it should... but worth a try.

Buildings should automatically put interiors inside them using the proxy they have.
Not too sure about this though...
But if you added some kinda interior in RenX/Gmax, who knows what kinda map you could make for a classic C&C mode Razz

I can always search for all the interiors in the always.dat, but that may take a day...

But even if i find them, we would have 2 W3D files... so the interior and extrerior are 2 objects, unless someone know how to make 2 objects become 1 object :huh:
