this is kirby's shield grenade tags and i installed them the way he said but when i tried to build the cache file it said that i needed a tag called the snowball gun and this is what my debug txt said:

12.07.07 17:01:13 couldn't open weapon tag 'snowballgun.weapon'.
12.07.07 17:01:13 failed to load item_collection tag 'item collections\single weapons\sheild grenade'
12.07.07 17:01:13 file_open('tags\weapons\christmas\snowballgun\snowballgun.weapon') error 0x00000003 'The system cannot find the path specified. '
12.07.07 17:01:13 couldn't open weapon tag 'snowballgun.weapon'.

12.07.07 17:01:14 failed to load scenario tag 'levels\test\tutorial\tag_test'
12.07.07 17:01:14 need to get the following tags:
12.07.07 17:01:14 weapons\christmas\snowballgun\snowballgun.weapon
12.07.07 17:01:14 weapons\christmas\snowballgun\snowballgun.weapon
12.07.07 17:01:14 weapons\christmas\snowballgun\snowballgun.weapon
12.07.07 17:01:14 weapons\christmas\snowballgun\snowballgun.weapon

please help with this. (o and if you say this should be a prive message to kirby. he didnt't answer for 2 days so i decided to post.)

did you open those tags in guerilla and look to see if you can fix the red text?

well the prob is is that i dont have the tags that it needs the tag pack didnt include it when i downloaded it. i just need that weapon.

well if you don't have it deleate it from the palet in guerilla.

thats your only option unless you want to somehow go hunt or it or keep waiting for a reply from kirby. if it's been a few days i would try a second PM.

ok but if he gets mad about me asking him twice i will tell him its your falt no affence but you told me to pm him again.

well it's still your decision. personally i would wait 3 or 4 days.

how are u adding these nades to map? via default starting nades? or item collections? coz for me that matters . i got this error i think when i tryed to use them as item collections.

first off, snowballgun? HAHAHA
second, go into the globals and replace the frag or the plasma with the shield grenade.
third, delete anything involving snowballgun in your scenario becuase you dont need anything from it for the shield nade

Download the hek+, rip a map with shield grenade (one example is h3t blood gulch), and the grenade will appear in your item collections folder. It should work if it did in the map.

oooooo i figured somthing out! it can be used by starting equtment but i cant add to map as an item colection it has to be normal! witch realy sucks! i cant get one to pick up! Hey kirby come help us over here!!

No

Open up the item_collection, click hte weapon drop box, pick equipment, click hte ..., pick the shield grenade equipment.

ok that worked but now i got it ingame but it will pick it up and use it like a frag and i set all the stuff for it as plasma. (ps i died a lot trying this! i had to throw frags at my feet

you have to change your globals to the shield grenade projectile.. acualy read the instructions in the readme.. its called readme for a reason.. if it wernt, it would be called ignoreme, but it isnt, its called readme.

i did read it and i set all the stuff to the plasma grenade.. am i supose to do somthing to the first box? kus that is probebly my problem...
