I searched gamemodes folder and could not find anything. I seem to be missing mine in a custom level and was wondering if something went wrong or if I just need to make one myself.

You just make it yourself i believe, well thats what i do for my maps

Ok well If someone could explain this to me that would be great. Lets say we have a control point, Lets say Alpha. Would you type in in here as just "cpname_alpha_vehical_0" What is the fr for and do you have to put in 64 or is that just part of its name to begin with.

Also for the objects them self I named them, Lets say chinook_0. Would I put it in is _chinook_0 or as _gb_the_chinook_0?


rem ********** Object Spawner **********
rem [ObjectSpawnerTemplate: cpname_fr_64_britstart_GB_CH_ScoutTank_0]
ObjectTemplate.create ObjectSpawner cpname_fr_64_britstart_GB_CH_ScoutTank_0
ObjectTemplate.activeSafe ObjectSpawner cpname_fr_64_britstart_GB_CH_ScoutTank_0
ObjectTemplate.modifiedByUser "fuzzhead"
ObjectTemplate.isNotSaveable 1

ObjectTemplate.minSpawnDelay 600
ObjectTemplate.maxSpawnDelay 600
ObjectTemplate.TimeToLive 12000
ObjectTemplate.Distance 100
ObjectTemplate.team 2
ObjectTemplate.teamOnVehicle 1

how about using the things the devs gave to you ?

go to pr/readme/ and copy the bf2editor folder into your bf2 install folder

cheers

Much appreciated. But I do still need help with the gamemodes folder, all that did was give me the list of vehicles in the editor.

Lets all try and be positive here Amo..

You can name it Chinook_0 if you want. Most mappers, Including the PR mappers, usually use their own system to label object spawners, spawn points etc. I like to label them like this, eg: kiwibase_chinook_0 giving the cp and the name of the asset.

did you setup yourmap.desc correct ?

open it with a txt editor and copy the gamemode lines from other maps

Seems To be crashing still even though I took the line from ochamchira.

<map>
<name> Operation_Clover </name>
<briefing locid="LOADINGSCREEN_MAPDESCRIPTION_Operation_Clover">map description for modders maps not localized (english only)</briefing>
<music> common/sound/menu/music/map8.ogg </music>
<modes>
<mode type="gpm_cq">
<maptype players="16" type="headon" locid="GAMEMODE_DESCRIPTION_aasinfantry">Unlocalized test for this mode on this map</maptype>
</mode>
<mode type="gpm_skirmish">
<maptype players="16" type="skirmish" locid="GAMEMODE_DESCRIPTION_skirmish">Unlocalized test for this mode on this map</maptype>
</mode>
</modes>
</map>

What percent is it crashing on? .desc looks fine to me.

13%. I would have run it in window mode, but I could not seem to find the icon for it in my bf2 folder.

13% are you kidding me ???

check some tutorials @ bfeditor.org

As for looking around at bfeditor, I all ready did. I searched 13%, 13% crash, Map crash at 13%, level crash at 13% and Haven't found anything.

As For the crash it says

Module: Geom
File:
C:\dice\Projects\BF2Branches\Patch_1_50\BF2\Geom\SurroundingPatch.ccp
Line:156

Text: TBM: unknown surrounding terrain patch type!

Current confile:Levels/Operation_Clover/Terrain.con

Does this mean I have a seconds Terrain.con file somewhere because I had an old level "Operation_Clover" and the Terrain.con is still hidden somewhere?

check your SecondaryHeightmap[...].raw's

check your Terrain.con (easy one not ? the error already told ya the file !!!!)

Yes I know.... But I don't get exactly what I am looking for inside the file that is wrong.

The level is 1024x2 if that at all helps.

so why dont you post it up here? wouldnt be that a good idea ?

Lol, sorry you posted right when I edited my post.

what is your secondaryHeightmap size ???

if you map is 1024x2 and your s.Heightmap is 256 it needs to look like this:

Secondary out of the heightdata.

so are you saying even here too I should make it 8/0.64/8 and I'm golden?

Fixed the terrain.con as you stated it should be, i'm still crashing due to terrain.con

i told you to change this if your s.Heightmap is 256 but it is 1024 !!!!
thats the problem why it is maybe crashin i never tried 1024 ingame but i know that it is causing a lot of errors in the editor

Ok, so you don't know what is wrong with the crashing if the level is 1024x2?
