I typed tags\levels\test\beginner\beginner.scenario and I got a message saying: this system cannot find the path specified. My level (beginner.scenario) was saved under program files/microsoft games/halo custom edition/data/levels/beginner/models and I find a gmax file called beginner. Can I have more help?
EDIT:I used command prompt to do everything, and when I open tool, the window opens and disappears. Edited by someone not importiant on Oct 12, 2007 at 03:13 PM |

EDIT:I used command prompt to do everything, and when I open tool, the window opens and disappears. Hguru has a tut on how to set up a shortcut to tool on this site. anyways.. read the comand compared to hte location.. you just read the location and tryed using it as a comand Quote: --- Original message by: kirby_422 tool lightmaps levels\test\bloodgulch\bloodgulch bloodgulch 0 0.999999 there is tags\levels\test\bloodgulch\bloodgulch.scenario, and tags\levels\test\bloodgulch\bloodgulch.structure_bsp |
