Setting Up The Spawn Step By Step.

funbags

<div class="IPBDescription">sorry for it again</div> Tell me exactly what to do. Because in my 3d view, all i see are little tiny purple boxes for res and a green box for my commander.


I think i did something wrong.

what i did was i clicked the entity tool, selected the thing from the right (team_command) then clicked where i wanted it on my map then pressed enter. then i selected the flag "Built"

thats also what i did for the res node, and this is all i get.

Ok. Did you compile the map and check it out? Or did you expect the green and purple "boxes" to become a comm chair and a res tower? (NOTE: that won't happen in Hammer)

EDIT: clarification

watch_me_die

They will if you set things up properly <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

You should download the <a href='http://collective.valve-erc.com/index.php?go=hammer_beta' target='_blank'>latest beta</a>, which displays models instead of those little boxes. It shoud be fine if you compile and run the map. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

You sure you got the right entity? That comm chair is the wrong shape, even if you had the right entity but the models weren't working, it would still be in the rough shape of a comm chair, not the shape of a player. Do you have the latest fgd?

funbags

where would i get the latest one?

Varsity

Right in your NS beta directory.

/me falls over.

Why didn't anyone tell me before this! You're all on notice! I want the information!
I suppose you've all been running around knowing who killed JFK and where Jimmy Hoffa is buried too!

I must know! <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->




/me heads off to setup Hammer to show models.

funbags

set up your client shouldnt be too hard and then set the server for

Random East/West Gamesnet server

then when that loads and you get a channel window enter #nsmapping
