Random map generation Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping I can still remember coding BASIC on Spectrum ZX and on Amstrad CPC 464. Also playing Micro Machines on a 386 in our science lab, on a PC that had NO harddrive at all!... [more]	62	2952	Jul 6, 2006 07:57 am by [HEL]Frolicols[GM]
Modification for Call of Duty 2 Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 General Don't want to rain on your parade, but don't a lot of existing mods already have that sort of functionality? Also making a mod on your tod would take an insanely long time!?... [more]	4	1372	Jul 4, 2006 09:15 am by [HEL]Frolicols[GM]
Repeated texture Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping Are you sure the texture is a suitable size to be repeated?? I wouldn't use a small texture over a large area. Also, there is no need for repeating threads for repeating texture questions!!! j/k... ... [more]	7	1433	Jun 30, 2006 01:15 pm by [HEL]Frolicols[GM]
Dust FX Problem Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping Yeah that's what I figured, so I set it to blow 100 units in a specific direction, but it seems to blow perpendicular to the actual origin/target coordinates, so maybe I'll just turn the coordinates 90 degrees and see if that sorts it......

Dust FX Problem Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping I'm trying to add the dusty wind fx (as used in Toujane and Matmata), but when I add the details into my gsc, it doesn't seem to produce the same effect? (It's not a syntax problem, as the fx does appear, but I can't seem to make it blow in the correct d... [more]	3	1403	Jun 30, 2006 10:14 am by [HEL]Frolicols[GM]
Bigger Player? Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping No, you cannot change the size of the player. If your map is scaled too big, I'm afraid you'll have to bite the bullet and redo it smaller. ... [more]	6	3912	Jun 30, 2006 10:11 am by [HEL]Frolicols[GM]
Trying to make a mountain border.. Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping There are various ways you could probably do this: Create a terrain patch, and use Y to advance edit it. Raise the height a lot, until the angle is steep enough that the player cannot get up there. Same as above, but with a shallower angle, then put in...

Question About Using Model Scale. Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping Yeah it's theoretically possible, although I haven't had first hand experience massively increasing models in size. Use modelscale as the key, and give it a value larger than 1 to increase the model size. edited on Jun. 30, 2006 06:02 am by [HEL]Froli... [more]	2	1361	Jun 30, 2006 10:02 am by [HEL]Frolicols[GM]

Random map generation Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping Although I agree with Stryder that this could potentially take mapmaking to the curb, I think it could prove useful for people getting started. Either as a learning tool, or as a "quickstart" option. Sometimes the hardest part of making maps is gettin... [more]	62	2952	Jun 26, 2006 08:26 am by [HEL]Frolicols[GM]
WARZONE server up and running - stats help please Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 General In a nutshell, a dedicated server can create a log file that records all information to do with a server (kills/connections etc).

map pack Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping First of all, make sure you are familiar with the folder structure of an .iwd file. Then basically you just put the multiple d3dbsp, gsc and all the other files in the same folders, and compress them into one iwd file instead of lots of separate ones....

Curved Staircase Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping I'm currently trying to recreate the curved staircase in the main room in Chateau for CoD2, but I'm having some trouble.

making a map pack Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping If you are talking about having one iwd file with multiple maps in, you just need to make sure they folder structure is still the same.

maps and mods error Call of Duty 2 : CoD2 MP Mapping I had a problem with this on our server, and it turned out it was because we had too many custom maps on our server!
