weapons and ammo crates Created 18 years ago2006-03-22 19:28:14 UTC by the Arcan

2 problems: i put my weapons where i want them in hammer (in my case in a sort of hollowed out space in the wall, but when i run the map there either all over the floor or move when they spawn (like getting pushed) this is a great problem with the rocketlauncher. is there something i must observe while placing a weapon, like that the yellow box is totally free of brushes?

second problem is that half my ammo crates show up as big fat red errors in the game. i'm thinking its the ammo type but i cant be sure.

anyone can help me plz?

1. Show us a picture of this model error...

2. So you made a little in-grave on a wall and placed the weapon on it..Hmm..Make the hole bigger perhaps...

heres the ammo crate error. some crates work, others dont.

That appears cause your missing the model...

0-o ok, so i cant have ammo crates for pistol rounds (just as an example)? how would u change this problem, like whered u get the model?

As far as I know, those ammo types were never used in crates and therefor I assume no time was put in getting them to work. You could find out which modelname it refers to exactly, take one of the ammo crate models, modify it and save it under that name and then pack it into your map, but I don't know if you think that's worth the hassle. Personally, I hardly ever use the pistol while playing on-line.

As for weapons getting pushed, I think you already mentioned the solution yourself. Why don't you give it a try? If I were you I'd place several weapons next to each other in different positions, so you can quickly see which position works after a single compile.

yea i think i fixed trhe weapons problem. about the crates itd be nice to get it to work since its crates for nearly all weapons but i spose i could just put normal ammo there :- thx anyway

Thankyou for teaching me something new...Never knew the pistol ammo box didn't work hehe..
