Why doesn't my map maker work? I downloaded the file for BSP and such from the DP website. I also followed instructions properly. aha i know I'm not totally incompetent and that i CAN read instructions cause i made a server. That works. =) OKAY so please help me out ... again (some might call me a "noob" but you know i try my best :))
-
What's going wrong exactly? First of all, you should have downloaded bsp_pb2_build016c.zip from the files page here. After that, just unzipping that zip to C:\ should set it up fine...
-
I'm on my laptop right no so i cant recheck exactly what it was. but it couldn't find 2 files i think. and when i get in BSP i dint really know how to use it :P so yea all it is, is black boxes ann stuff aahaha anyways if u could figure this out that would be great.
- OsiRis ;D
-
Like it sounds like it did work you just dont know how to map with bsp you should prolly learn that before you try and map.
-
Well i guess it did "work" but when i loaded it up it said 2 files were missing. i was able to find "whatever.pak" (i think thats what it is called) but there was some entity thing that i couldn't find so i clicked cancel. the program opened but i wasn't sure if somethin was missing because i could find the one file.
Also where can i learn to use BSP (is there like a manual on the net somewhere) If there is give me the link that would be really helpful;)
-
Yeah, check if the file is on BSP/pball2/
Did you installed directly on C?
You should do that, unless you want to modify a few files :)
-
Sounds like your paths aren't configured correctly. You shouldn't get any warnings about missing files.
-

What two files? We fixed this in another thread about 2 weeks ago. Tell me the files so I can see if the link will apply to you.
-
When not unzipped directly on C:\BSP\ it will always give you errrors about not having 2 files, the pak and the palette I think.
Thats fixed on the new version tho, since it allows for relative paths.
-
what new version?. and can someone give me a guide or somthin on how to use BSP

I'm writing one right now. :D
-
Wait - are you referring to a cartographer? If so, pay him more and give him a perks package.
-
...Me? What? >_>
-
Nope, the guy asking why his map maker isn't working.
-
huuh? i just wanna kno why my map maker isnt working.
-
I told you, either change the configuration files, or make a folder called BSP on C:\, put everything there, and it should work.
-
this is the file i cant find-> pb2ents_b15.c
it is supposed to be a .qc file i think
-
I zipped my whole bsp package up awhile ago for a friend, so if you want one that's already in perfect working condition, here it is: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AU2AM38E
put it on your C drive.
-
where can i download a map maker thing?
-
http://dplogin.com/files/mapmaking/bsp_pb2_build016c.zip
-
or download the pre-packaged one that i have.

Thanks for that spook. oh and you said put it in my C drive. do i make a folder in my C drive called BSP or just put it directly onto my C drive?
put it on your C drive.
-
Make a folder in C called BSP.
-
I packaged the whole thing as the bsp folder. So dl either one, they are the same, and extract the content onto the C drive.
-
ooohh. so no BSP folder? ???
-
it IS the bsp folder
-
ahaha OK
i could not dl it into C drive casue im not admin on my comp.
will it work the same if i just cut and paste it into the c drive?
-
Yes.
-
wow
that sucks. i cant even copiy and paste it into the c drive.
"Cannot copy bsp: Access is Denied.
Make sure the disk is not full of write-protected and that the file is not currently in use"
that is the message that appears
-
Paste it on your desktop, or in your documents folder
-
But you'll have to edit the config files now.
-
i cant even open the file. its a .rar how am i supposed to use it?
-
Download and install WinRar.
-
can i find WinRar just about anywhere on the internet?
-
google search it
-
for the BSP thing one file i cant find is pb2ents_b15.qc the file is actually a .c file but the program is looking for pb2ents_b15.qc
PS. spook your way the BSP wouldnt open.
-
It doesnt have to be a qc file.
Thats set on the game.cfg
Or game.ini depending on what version you use.
-
yea, Cobo do you have BSP mapeditor installed and working on your computer? cause i keep getting errors. and i know that you guys can lead me through steps that can fix it. but for me it would be soooo much easier if you or someone else just emailed me and installed copy of BSP (with all the subfolders and such). if you could that would be awesome cause i got some ideas for maps :) --> paintballdude89@hotmail.com
-
Cobo packaged his bsp for me along time ago, and i just packaged mine, which is cobo's but with my .maps included.
Download mine, and it should work just fine
-
I did? lol :P
-
Yeah it was back on ETG before me moved :D
-
its okay. QueeNiE came over to me house and fixed it for me. we started making a map too.
