no vehicle list when creating object spawner

Post by Enlil »

I just installed the Editor, went to create an object spawner and the vehicle list was empty that popper up. How come my list isn't populated? Pretty sure I followed the install guide on here to the T.

So you can't create the spawner? Not sure how to solve that, but if you can create the spawner without choosing anything in the list, it doesn't really matter. when you select the spawner you can choose vehicles in the team1/2 dropdown boxes in the tweak bar to the left.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\bf2editor\mods\pr_edit\LevelEditor

you need the ObjectSpawnerDef.con there, I think you can get it in the 'how to set up your pr_edit' tutorial

I have that file but not in the location you listed. I have a "bf2" and "xpack" dirs in C:\Program Files (x86)\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\bf2editor\mods\.

I have the ObjectSpawnerDef.con file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\bf2editor\mods\bf2\LevelEditor\

UPDATE: so I'm using UNPACKER from the app store for windows 10.. and seems it never unpacked the rar archive that you specified.. I did it when I installed as per the installation guides us to.. I just tried again and it still didn't extract the archive.. Ill have to use another program.

I didn't finalize the spawner creation spot because the vehicle list came up empty.. so I just clicked cancel. I think I can probably create the spawner, but my post was about why I had no vehicle list. I followed the BF2Editor guide on this site and did everything it said to do.. except there were two problems with the guide.. there was no LayerInit.con file(update: solved this.. my Unpacker app wasn't extracting the rar archive.) and no readme folder as specified in the guide

"NOTE: in addition to this to get the most upto date object spawner templates, you should copy the "bf2editor" folder out of "\project reality\mods\pr\readme\ and paste it into your Project Reality folder, overwriting the folder with the new one."

I have a Project Reality folder which contains a Project Reality BF2 folder which contains the dirs: admin, bf2editor (as specified in the guide to install to our main bf dir) icons, maya, mods (which contains only dirs pr and pr_edit), NavMesa, pb, pbsetup, python, readme (only contains license.rtf), and uninst. So no \Project Reality BF2\mods\pr\readme thus no bf2editor folder to copy over to get the upto date object templates for the spawner. :\
