Moving Entire Map? Created 20 years ago2004-08-28 15:50:02 UTC by Watdaflip

Ive just spend the last 5 hours recreating a map from a different game and ive run out of room. I started the map in the center instead of all the way to the left and I dont have enought room to complete it. Is there a way to select the entire map and move it over some so there is room? So far I dont have anything but the floors walls and a spawn point made. sorry if this this has been asked already

must be a big map, go on edit, select all, then drag it across

Sweet thanks, ya, im recreating a map called antartica, its from a older game called global operations, i dont know if uve heard of it. Anway thanks for the help, it would ahve taken me another few hours to remake it if i couldnt move it over

You can also move things by dragging selection boxes around the entire area desired and pressing enter, then moving it.

yep! sure can.

I havnt applied any textures yet, will it be screwed up when i do, or just if I had it done before i moved the map

just put texture lock on anyway. and when your making a map, never say "i'll do textures later". its alot quicker to choose a texture when your making the brush than just make them all the same, and change them after the brushes are all made.

I would have but i still have some searching to do for some textures to best match the map, is it possible for my to take a screen shot, and cut a section out of that and make it into a texture?

Yes it is, although the result may not be too good.

the type i need is basically just siding, just verticle lines, and solid colors, will those work out alright?

I checked that out, and i was wanting to replicate a map to what it looked like in the other game and there wernt any that would match. that the only reason i wanted to make em is to try and get it to look as close as possible, but if it would end up turning out that the textures i make will look bad ill have to find some that will work better
