ok i put the stuff in but after u compile the map(at least i think it does). where does it put your pk3 files????? is it in Main folder or somewhere else.

pk3.. no.. it compiles the map file into a bsp file.

pk3 files are another subject.

a stupid question maybe Foyleman, but what does this way of compiling do? i ask this because i'm interested in if this way of compiling from you also makes ai to walk without a script.

as you maybe know am i trying to get the ai's to walk without a script. another person did tell me to use the dawnville .bat in cod/main/maps to compile my sp-maps. this would make the ai's to walk, does this way of compiling out of the editor itself the same as that bat compiling way.

jope you understand what i'm trying to say?

greetings,
leon

Compiling from the dos window should provide the same results as running a bat file. A bat file will open the dos window, run the commands, and close the dos window when it is done.

You should actually be ablet o copy the commands in the bat file and use them in the dos window.

I used to use the dos window regularly for lold quake based games. I did this so I could control the compiling better and so I could see the readout from the compilers. I don't know if the cod compilers have much of a readout anymore... even in verbose mode.

Uhm... I'm probably too stupid or something, but I also always get the "no Call of Duty in ..." error. Even if I compile the "normal" way.
What other causes for this error are there?

Well since we're on the subject i got a good question...

When i compile i get...

i have highlited the important parts.
I use the UOtools to build and i have done the NTFS compiling tutorial (http://modsonline.com/Tutorials-read-192.html)

I'm so lost... This is the first time this happened out of like 5 crappy maps i made and this is the first one im satisified with so far.

Apo, you did write;
but I also always get the "no Call of Duty in ..." error. Even if I compile the "normal" way.
'what does it say after ;
"no Call of Duty in ..."
as far as i know understand it will it say that it can't find any cod in the path that it is looking for now. when you don't get a bsp file it could be because you have your path's wrong.

amishthunder, somewhere you can see this is the compile;
**********************
******* leaked *******
**********************
this means that your entities now make contact with the void around your map. maybe your skybox is not closed compleatly. there are severel other things that could make this leaked error. for instance a entitie outside the map, in the void causes also a leak. or when you have a very large map and have made some errors with brushes/and or entities, (for instance a entitie that is somewhere in a brush, or brushes into eatch other.
when you comple a map with the map open in the editor and you use after the compile the option;
file/pointfile
than a red line will point to the place in your map where the leak is taken place.
hope this helpes. but another option is by compiling the map on another way. i only make sp maps so therefor i only use a .bat file for the compile of my maps, (i just changed the name of the original dawnville.bat in to my mapname.bat and also changed this inside the .bat file).

leon

ok... now i get...

and the rest completes.

The last prob was i had no skybox, that would always be the last thing i do but i guess UO is picky about that.

this thread is about compiling from the editor for cod - not coduo

for compiling for coduo refer to one of the 3 methods shown in the 2 tutorials here and here

well if you could delete those posts then, ill move the topic. Sorry I kinda realized that after i could edit anything.
