Elaborate? I changed some markers to my bipdes, and tool would just not compile the changes. How is anything I said not valid? It wasnt his problem, but there is truth to what I said.

In multiplayer scenarios, Tool externally references shared tags. The masterchief biped is one of those shared tags. This is why such tags aren't built into the cache file and why any changes you make to the actual source tags won't ever be reflected in the resulting maps.

you would have to modify them to the shared_multiplayer.map if you want them to show up in your custom map
which right now isn't possible.

Sadly no-one besides Kant has made much progress with HUDs as for the reason you stated. I have been working on a MMM map pack that would include new maps/weapons/vehicles and HUDs if anyone is willing to make a few new ones.

I'm willing to try to make a custom hud for a map, I've found some tutorials on this site here and there that could help me with it :)
Would be a challenge!

I'm just wondering, but I've managed to get a .jms file into a .gbx_model and then used the model upgrader to get it to a .render_model, but when I use it for a crate, Sapien and the packager crashes.
Is there a way to avoid this? and make custom crates?

Yes it is possible, but if it is not the same size as an existing crate you will have issues with the collision and physics models.

Korn has unlocked the ability to compile .JMS collision and physics so when he releases that info it would be much easier to make one.



The GBX Model Upgrader has to be fed the right info. After it spits out the new render_model it needs to be adapted to H2V (shaders, textures, etc).

Here is an example weapon Max file prepared for the upgrading process: http://www.monstrmoose.com/killsalon...Rifle_MA5C.zip

What if some one was to remove the shared maps...



EDIT: Nvm


BTW that hud tut was mine :D
