So is there a limit to the number of trigger volumes that I can have in a map that will crash the game or crash Sapien?

HEK seems to limit it at 256. So, I think you can basically consider that unlimited lol, when will you ever need more than 256 trigger volumes?

Yeah, that is basically unlimited. Only Chuck Norris would ever use more than 256 :P

Bruce Lee on the other hand... actually did some hardcore kung fu. I heard he had to slow his punches so that the camera could actually catch his movement.

Yeah, but it's just a cheesy joke, probably a bit old by now though.

Completely, everyone i know has already moved on to other old tv\movie stars, like Jacky Chan. That guy was legendary...Was...not anymore, now he's been downgraded to stupid drink commercials.

Well the guy IS old. Besides, we can't forget karate kid so soon now can we? :)

Karate what? ;)

Wow, is it just me or does that janitor in the first video look like Jacky Chan? ;)


Lol. i'd never seen the other ending before, thanks. but yeah i liked that movie :)

Because that IS jackie chan. I'm surprised you haven't heard of that movie before.

...Tell me you're not serious? Please. 'cause if you are then someone needs to learn to take a well dropped hint

Sigh, Yes it is Jackie Chan, go google the movie name, Karate Kid (2010)

hey but don't forget about the original movie, ahhh good times of my childhood XD

I actually need close to 750 Trigger Volumes. I know that probably won't make sense to you guys, but it's true. Is there a hack that could allow more? And because I now I will use at least 256 trigger volumes is there a trick I can do that will allow me to create these in max instead of doing it in sapien?

If it's single player.... can't you just split up the BSPs? Then use up to 250 trigger volumes for each BSP.

My issue isn't single player....it's multiplayer.

trigger volumes are part of the scenario, not bsp.

Anyways, using child scenarios you could create more for the map (256 per scenario you add), but idk what halo will think of it.

And trigger volumes are added in sapien, there isn't anything to do them in max, because they aren't part of the BSP, they are part of the scenario; they are like any other item you add like bipeds or scenery. normal guerilla can't do anything, but OS guerilla had all the editable fields. If you reallllllyy hate placing them in sapien, I guess you could mathematically place them in guerilla *shrug* idk if this feature is in the beta for OSHEK, or if its just in the newer releases.

I didn't think of that....thank you so much..you just save me a lot of time.

I want to add, it's best to officially complete your BSP before ever placing a Trigger Volume. Reexporting the BSP even to the same coordinates will complete displace itself if you reload it into the scenario tag. Nothing will be in the same spot as you left it before.

You may also need to plan how large your BSP is and where to place such triggers. If your Trigger Volume is too large, it may visual hickup and disappear while dragging out a side of it.

I've always had my bsp re-exports be exactly where they were before given I haven't moved the verts...?
And try to keep your trigger volumes inside the bsp. Like scenery, volumes whose origin is outside the bsp will disappear. You can tell if they are inside or outside the bsp in sapien-- stuff outside the bsp has a red no sign next to it in the hierarchy window.

about the TV, i hate when i can't mod the size of the TV they most update that idea, because i want the real size modfiquer
