everytime i start bsp i get and error couldn't find [c\bsp\pball2\whatever.pak]... then it says after i select ok [c\bsp\pball2\whatever.pak] is not a valid .pak file, choose another file... then i say ok then it gives me a window that says find pak file and it allows me to search for it [but where?] and if i close it it gives me another window like the last but it says where are .qc files
c\bsppball2\entity\pb2ents-b15.c? [i can't find that either] i close that and the bsp loads up
jake
btw my comp's keyboard is messed up so i can't type some keys so i had to improvise with the stuff above :-X also it runs in open-gl if that helps
-
oh i forgot i cant load any textures after that.....
-
Jake,
Be sure to 'modify' your original post instead of double posting.
Let's begin by the obvious, have you tried *re-downloading* AND *re-installing* BSP?
I recommend you begin there.
Post back or PM if you have tried this or if you need any help.
Thanks for playing,
y00tz

ohhhhh you can modify your post..... and yes i have already done that come to think of it maybe there is a way to download those missing files? just a thought

Where did you download BSP from? This site?
-

-
Alright, and you extracted it to C:/bsp, correct?

no i have an external hard drive with 180 gigs so i kept it in that file [its f] oh and i extracted it to f\bsp_pb2_build016c\bsp
-
Okay, I think we're getting close.
Did you open f:\bsp\pball2\game.ini and replace all the "c:" stuff with "f:"?
-
it says

-

-
okay ill run it so coss yer finger mate!!
I always do, but hey, thanks for pointing out my congenital deformity.
I kid, I kid, did you see what I wrote about the location of paintball2? I did edit it..
-
i hope you noticed it was in an external hard drive so it would be f not c and no its not in games its in F\[jakes]\paintball2... and after i ran it it didn't help so my idea is you post your files that im missing [the ones in the first post] and i download them

Relax, you have them. Are they the same errors as above?
Also, I asked if it was in C: because if it's not, we have more work to do.

Huh?
This is so you can compile the maps you make. I'd hate to see you start another thread simply because you didn't read...
-
:-[ alright i guess so >:( why me!!!! always me!!!!! [it happens like this to all my game wether in c or in f ....! :( ]
-
wow it says something different it says
ill type it later when i can get on again
-
how do i make a screenie ill post it like that??? it hard to type mate
-
hit 'print scr' in the top right of your keyboard, then go to paint and hit paste.
-
the how do i post it here?
-
I think someone needs to make a install program for BSP. So you just select the directory you want it to be in, and it does all the nasty stuff in the configs and batch files for you. If I figure out how, I will. Not promising anything though.
the how do i post it here?
Hit "Reply" at the bottom of the page.
Click on "Additional Options".
Attach it.
-
how do i post the screenie tho??!!
just say it
-
Oi! You didn't give me enough time to edit my post. :P
-
oh no it wont let bmps...
-
Oi! You didn't give me enough time to edit my post. :P
Oi? Since when do you quote my people?
And I was planning on making an installer after trying hard to help this "boy genius".
Jake: Use a JPG
-
kid yootz kid......kk how do i make it a jpg now!!!!
-
kid yootz kid......kk
Thanks, corrected.
-
boy genius.
thanks!!!!
-
kk lets see if this works..................
-
You said before that you didn't put Pball in the default folder (C:\games\paintball2) so you are gonna have to change stuff in one of your batch files in order to test out the map. y00ts tells you what to do in an above post (http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=6885.msg76166#msg76166).
-
ahhhhh!!! it worked!!! but i thought i did that with yootzerz ?
-
ohhh yea i remember now we were trying to but this is not working so i posted this here picture [above]
so um yootz this is what im talking about i need to do that but the things you said to change wheren't there so now what?
editeditedit that was runmap i ran there in the screenie
it sure does take a long time for you guys to reply but i can wait [note what i said >:(]
