Mapping Programs

[S-Gray]

FS, i followed that Tutorial on UKTerrorist, about creating just a Cube Map.

Ive put in a Few Lightbulb Icon things, and 1 CT Spawn and Terrorist Spawn.

I save the Map, then click on the "Compile" button and i get this Error Message:

** Executing...
** Command: Change Directory
** Parameters: c:\Sierra\Counterstrike

The command failed. Windows reported the error:
"No such file or directory"

It then ask' if i wanna Continue, so just say i say Yes, it will take me into CS, but then give me this Error:

Map Change Failed, Map not found on Server

Where do i put the Map and is there anythin else i should know?

Like the tutorial says, dont run the map using the compile options.
Your compiled map goes in the cstrike\maps

If you note teh earlier post theres a tutorial on setting up worldcraft correctly.

What do you save the Map as?

.rmf / .map / .bsp ?

I have tried .rmf and .map but neither work

Shouldn't there be a halflife in the directory structure?

not if he bought CS retail ( scum pe0n )

 

[jis]

the map needs to be a .bsp for halflife to recognise it...but worldcraft needs it to be a .map for it to recognise it.


when u compile worldcraft auto puts the .bsp in the correct folder for u makesure u have the directrories set up rite it looks like ure map are going into the /valve/maps dir...

just go back and check the directories

and thank the lord that u aint got any leakes in ure map...

(u may have other probs as the map aint even compiled )

 

[S-Gray]

Yea, i have CS Retail installed.

when u compile worldcraft auto puts the .bsp in the correct folder for u makesure u have the directrories set up rite it looks like ure map are going into the /valve/maps dir...

Right.. do i need to put the Map in that Folder or in the counter-strike/cstrike/maps folder ?

I already told you what to do nubbins

 

[S-Gray]

[ECA]

my reply will be the same as jis's
your .bsp ( compiled map ) goes into your cstrike\maps folder

 

[jis]

[ECA]

Of course I'm right!

I wasnt blaming you

 

[S-Gray]

ive read Guides.. but still i get problems.. once i sort one problem another crops up :/

 

[jis]

lol gray

was joking son

mapping is quite hard and frustrating, once u actually build something, u will test it and realise that it is so out of proportion !

then there is texturing shish !

forget it m8 thats my advice

 

[Tom]

Maps that play well are based on the design.

Maps that look good are based on lighting, not textures.

SG m8, mail me via pm or whatever if you have any probs instead of clogging up the forums
