I'm trying to make my own projectile .gboxmodel, but tool fails to create the file. It just reads off 'couldn't read ./toolbeta.map', which I already know does that all the time, but then that's it. Little help?

Hi, I see you are new well. ./toolbeta.map is not an error, is normal. What kind of projectile you need to do ? A bullet, a missile, or a rocket ?

Look in your halo ce directory for a file called debug.txt. Open it, go to the bottom of it. Copy the last paragraph. Paste it onto here and post.

Also, what command are you using?

Sounds like you are not entering the correct command, what exactly are you typing? and where is your .jms located?

Trying to do some kinda missle. I'm pretty sure I've got all the nodes named and linked and all that, used Tool++ to try to create the model of the JMS file that I know I'm directing it to, using the 'model' command. But all it does is

could not find ./toolbeta.map
Tool Command Completed.

Looked at that debug file that I'm beyond familiar with now, and it just shows the last activity with Sapien.


And that ./toolbeta.map thing has me curious. I know I don't have to worry about it, but if it's not important, then just what is it? Just curious is all.

Use regular tool.

Interesting...

Tool++ doesn't do anything, but regular Tool did it. Wonder why.




Thanks for the help.

Hey can show us a pic of the projectile ?

Here it is

I'm doing a Hell themed multiplayer map pack. Think of this thing as the projectile to the demon's ultimate weapon.

Gonna have this function much like the BFG on Doom 3, though when it hits a wall, it'll have a countown of 10 seconds and then nuke the whole area within 100 world units.

More questions probably will arise if and when Google and the existing tutorials fall short.

Nice work to be a beginner. =)
