I see how to make it .pkg but i want it to be .mix. So how do i do that. Also how do i make it so keycards keep spawning? I see a one time keycard thing but i want them to keep spawning.

This makes the export to mix option avalible:
http://trielite.afraid.org/LevelEdit_Dev.zip

Download that and put it in your leveledit directory.


No. Seriously. No.

To ensure a settings update:

-Delete the .mix and .thu versions of the map if they already exist. Sometimes Level Edit
won't update a map properly if it is overwriting an older version.

-Go to the Levels folder and delete the 3 "your map name" files with the extensions .ddb,
.lsd, and .ldd. Save your .lvl file again to recreate the deleted files, with
fully updated settings.

-Export the map with out deleting anything, this is to ensure everything got updated.
Then you can move on to exporting the file smaller.

Exporting smaller .mix files:

First make sure any saving is done.

-Delete the Always, Characters, Presets and Scripts folders.

-Go to the EditorCache folder and delete the files METER.TGA, TA_CEMENT.TGA, TA_DUMMY.TGA,
and TA_FRONT.TGA. Also delete the .dds versions of those 4 files if they exist

-Delete any asset_report.txt files that exist in any remaining folders, including the main
mod package folder.

-Export the .mix

-Restore the deleted Always, Characters, Presets, and Scripts folders

Yeah, but then your .mix is filled with useless stuff that makes it very big. Not a good idea.

All it does is add the ini's and some other files. Sometimes a map even needs those ini's(or other files) when you "temp" many things...

I once exported a map without em and stuff didn't work. :rolleyes:

Yeah, because you did it wrong. What I mean by "useless stuff" is that the w3d files you've had stored in there go into your mix, which is useless and it will make your level about 5mb more.

Are you saying that once a file is loaded from the map's folder it no longer needs it in there? Shocked

I thought the mix needed them in order to load the map... :oops:
