Hi, I donīt know why, but everytime Im testing my map for a CTF game, the flag from the enemy team and my own, dont appear.... :S
In sapien, I created the netgame flags as CTF game, but why the flag dont appear in the game?

does the flag pole show?

you need to add wind.

Flag pole?? In sapien, the flag dont appear.

That is correct, the flag does not appear in sapien.
You place the flag base as a scenery, then place the netgame flag on that.
The flag will be visible in game but not in sapien.

That didnīt work, the flag donīt appear in the game

did the flag pole appear?

well maniac i have the same problem,i had forgot all about it but seeing it's come up in a thread,maybe if i can fix mine then the replys will help him as well.
i have the flagpole added as scenery,that's all i have,no flag,and no idea how to get it ingame.
thanks.

edit for the guy who posted the thread...
i just went into scenery clicked on add then in my tags folder i located and opened the flag_base folder.then inside i found my flag_base.scenery file.double click on that then close both windows.
go to game window and left click where the flag is to be placed then in the properties palette change the type to flag_base.done but you only have flag pole so far.

What is flag pole??? I put the flag_base.scenery but the flag donīt appear in the game

flag pole is what holds the flag,as for the flag it's self i'm trying to figure it out.

ahh

k
you guys are doing the scenery part correct, that is placing the base.

the actual flag is in game data / netgame flags
place a netgame flag and change its type to ctf flag, then give it the correct team index.

it's not the game flags,but the actual flag isn't on the pole that's what needs added.
i had a look at the wind part you were talking about but still had no luck getting the actual flag on the pole.

The actual flag is placed by placing a netgame flag titled "flag" (set the index for 0 for red team, 1 for blue team). The wind is needed to make the cloth part of the flag move; without it, all you get is a pole.

i had a feeling that was the case gamma,i'll have another look at getting the wind added then.
thanks.

I alredy writed the team index for the netgame flags, but the flags dont appear in the game, theres no pole ofe the flag in the game

no worries man i got it working now,heres how to get flag working.

in sapien scroll down to cluster properties,then scroll down and click on weather.
click on edit types,in the window that opens change the object class to weather_palette.
click on add,in the window that opens click on the ... ( 3 small dots) beside the part named wind.
in the window that opens this time,go to tags/levels/test and choose either the bloodgulch,dangercanyon or icefields map.
click on the file named multiplayer wind and then click open to add it.make sure to name it multiplayer.wind.
then in the properties window change that to multiplayer.wind
now in the tool window use the drop down box and change it to multiplayer.wind
press the space bar to add it to apply the cluster.
now go to your hierarcy view window and click on palette and then click on weather palette.
you should see the multiplayer.wind added there in the window on the right.
now click on file at the top of sapien and click on save scenario_structure_bsp
recompile your map now and that's it done your flag will be ingame.

edit or should i say the wind will be blowing flag that's already there

:)

cheers for the wind hint maniac,i woulda had no clue otherwise.

Didnt work

Did you set the netgame flag type to CTF - flag?

Yeah, I set the netgame flags to ctf-flag... and there no flag in the game! :S Also I set the wind to multiplayer and all that stuff and the flag still not working

your not doing something right you need to go back over the posts above.

Evrything is right, multiplayer weather, and netgame flags.

if you did everything form adding the netgame flafs for king of the hill,race,ctf,oddball.
and added the multiplayer wind and pressed scapce bar to add the cluster then you should see the flag blowing in the wind ingame not in sapien but only ingame you will see the flag.

Yeah, oddball and king of the hill work. Race no because the maps is not for race, I can play capture the flag, but I canīt find them anywhere, theres no pole of the flag.

EDIT: I Checked the original bloodgulch map and everything is like my custom map, the navpoint that show the flag location do not appear in the game, PLEASE I CANīT RELEASE MY BETA, I NEED HELP :S
