enable set r_showtris 1 in Multiplayer, how? Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping I remember back when the 1.02 SDK came out many people weren't using it because it disabled cheats. Is there a way to enable the cheats again for mapping? I'd like to set r speeds and showtris, but all I get is a message saying that cheats are not... [more]	3	877	Mar 10, 2003 07:24 pm by Koel001~rb
Gtk Radiant MP static models don't show up Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping Thanks, that did the trick. Funny though, I didn't need to use the -rename for the .bsp and it still shows up fine in the game. Maybe it is because I'm using the newest version of Gtk? Yesterday I read about -rename for Gtk but forgot to save the ... [more]	3	750	Dec 18, 2002 06:01 pm by Koel001~rb
Gtk Radiant MP static models don't show up Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping I'm adding some model_static entities to my MP map but they don't show up in the Gtk editor. All I get is the small red box and when it compiles it doesn't show up. I'm using the latest version of Gtk for SoF2.Any suggestions?(Right now I&... [more]	3	750	Dec 18, 2002 12:51 am by Koel001~rb
Mirror/Rotate entity problems Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping I'm using Radiant to make a CTF map, so I'll be needing to mirror and rotate entities like lights and player starts. Radiant which ships with the game doesn't seem to correctly rotate or mirror entities but Gtk Rad does. Any reason for this? D... [more]	4	717	Dec 12, 2002 07:38 pm by Koel001~rb
convert .unr to .map? Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping I've got an old UT CTF map I built with UnrealEd 2.0 that I'd like to bring into Radiant and convert into a SOF2 map. Is there a utility to do this? Even if it is just the brushes, it would be a great timesaver...Thanksk.... [more]	3	901	Dec 4, 2002 06:58 pm by Koel001~rb
Can't get the NPC's to show up in radiant Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping Go to your C:\SOF2SDK\bin and open the sof2sp.qe4 file in a text editor. Make sure you are opening sof2sp.qe4, not just the sof2.qe4 file. If you can't find this file, you have probably set up the SDK incorrectly.Scroll down till you see the n...

ConfusEd entities.... Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping If you have been using the ConfusEd entities (or would like to but can't figure out how to place them) make sure your sof2sp.qe4 file has the confusEd pointing to the right location. To do this, just open the file in a text editor and make sure the pa... [more]	1	695	Oct 30, 2002 05:22 am by Koel001~rb
vertical sliding door Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping I'm trying to make a vertically sliding door, like a warehouse rollup door, but if I use func_door_sliding with an angle of -1 (up, supposedly) the door just slides in the positive x direction. How do I make a door slide up?thanksk.... [more]	2	705	Oct 17, 2002 10:38 pm by Koel001~rb

SoF2 mapping tutorial Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping make sure the path in the sof2sp.qe4 file points to your NPC's. By default this is left blank for some reason."npcpath" "C:\SOF2SDK\base\npcs\."k.... [more]	8	4708	Oct 8, 2002 06:44 pm by Koel001~rb
unzip .pk3 files where? Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping When I first set up SoF2 I used the tutorial which Mechanodroid linked to on the "SoF2 mapping tutorial" sticky above. In that tutorial, the .pk3 files are unzipped in the C:\Program Files\Soldier of Fortune II - Double Helix\base fo... [more]	3	1188	Oct 2, 2002 04:03 am by Koel001~rb
SoF2 mapping tutorial Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping I used this tutorial as well, but it is different than other tutorials because you unzip the .PK3 files into the game's base directory not the SDK base directory. When I followed this tutorial, I couldn't load textures even though the path was cor... [more]	8	4708	Oct 1, 2002 04:55 pm by Koel001~rb
SP spawnflag values Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping LOL....well, I guess I would have figured that out at some point. : ) I had been setting the values manually, not using the checkboxes, so the next time I opened the map, any spawnflag values of 1 had the start_off box checked.So now that I have NPC's...

SP spawnflag values Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping I've begun to add spawned NPC's into my SP map. I've studied Raven's Kam6 map and cannot determine the difference between setting the NPC's spawnflag to 9 instead of 1. For example, the "Last Guys" NPC's have both spawnfl...

Four easy steps to frustration (metashaders) Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping I haven't done any height maps yet, but I am making new textures for the level I'm building. It took me a while to realize I needed to copy my whole texture file of new textures from c:/sof2sdk/base/textures/YourMapName to the c:/programfiles/sof2...

brush selection, UV flipping, Z checker Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping Now that I'm a bit more used to mapping, I was wondering if Radiant (the one which comes with the game) has the following features:Is there a way to cycle/pickWalk/scroll though the brushes one by one in order?Is there some way to know how many brushe...

detail brushes Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping This is the first time I've mapped with Radiant, although I've done some fun stuff with UTed and other editors. I've been trying to tag a brush to be visible/noncolliable so I assumed this would be a detail brush. But when I make a detail brus... [more]	4	1055	Sep 16, 2002 06:12 pm by Koel001~rb

disappearing map pieces Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping What had happed was this: I had opened the kam6 sample map to rip it apart to see how it was put together. In doing so, I turned off the detail brushes. When I was done, I closed Radiant and went home. The next day, I opened my map in Radiant and "po... [more]	6	824	Sep 12, 2002 07:04 pm by Koel001~rb
mapping issues: textures and smearing Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping I had a similar problem and posted it on the SP MOD forum. My problem was the that the brushes in question were tagged as detail brushes, although I had made only one of them a detail brush. Usually during as single session of Radiant the title bar of the...

disappearing map pieces Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping This morning when I opened my current SP map in Radient a few of the brushes were missing.

Radiant crashing when map loads Soldier of Fortune : SoFII Mapping Thanks, that worked. I opened it up in wordpad and saw that a few lights somehow had their textures nuked and replaced by an RGB value. Nice to be able to open the .map files, it's kind of like a Maya ascii file but alot simpler.Gabriel, I could reach... [more]	5	766	Sep 5, 2002 04:44 pm by Koel001~rb
