Hey Guys!
Iam new in map editing so therefore i need some help!
I am using Doom Killers mapeditor!
I got X Y Z Coords + Rot X Rot y Rot Z coords
i added them like this >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Have a look above becz iam not sure that iam perfect or wrong!
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ASCII" ?>
<itemlist>
<item model="310" name="phils_compnd_gate">
<position x="-1640.39" y="-211.929" z="13.7183" />
<rotation format="axisangle" x="3.09081" y="3.10826" z="-1.5412" angle="1" />
</item>
</itemlist>
Now look at the pictures!
This pic , i got when i done editing! have a look at its position! ( in map editor )

And this result i got when i added this in Serv ( in server )

Now look at these both pictures !plz tell me whats the mistake i did in making its XML file?
Seems like you missed the second custom object in the xml, if the black object { on the white roof } is another object you must specify that in xml as well. Seems like I must start working on XML outputs but the current INI plugin is really worse for such outputs.
@Doom_Killer I dint get you , what you mean to say , What i forgot and whats the solution?
What second object? i have created only one object using your editor but? :(
@Doom_Killer , It can be his graphics problem.
@Woodland what do you mean that you want to cover the entrance with gates? If yes, Than create a new object there and keep this one too!
<item model="310" name="phils_compnd_gate">
<position x="-1640.39" y="-211.929" z="13.7183" />
<rotation format="axisangle" x="3.09081" y="3.10826" z="-1.5412" angle="1" />
</item>
<item model="310" name="phils_compnd_gate">
<position x="257.726" y="-237.253" z="11.0713" />
<rotation format="axisangle" x="0" y="0" z="0" angle="1.15" />
</item>
Still the same problem !
1st one object is not in ts exact position and the second is not even present in the map XD
:(
Why you want to create an .xml when you can create the thing you want by
CreateObject(....);
You'll worked hard to create something and succeed to create an .xml started server and an nab joined and downloaded your .xml
Profit to that nab because he got an readymade custom unique object
And please use [code-] your stuff [/code-] remove - to make it work
Ohh Crap by the way thanks , leme try as you said
so you mean by using CreateObject , this prob will be fixed?!
No, I think, because the XML is same as the CreateObject.
Yet, I'm not sure, because I haven't tested it.
You should try it anyways.
XML's only advantage is to increase distance of object as far as I know. On the other hand CreateObject does the same job in creating objects as XML does only that CreateObject has draw distance of 100.
hmm Leme try Create Object , No worries if problem occurs again becz you guys will help na yaar :P
Before you made the XML file, the XYZ coords, give it to us, I think you did something wrong in that only.
ohh ohk then , there you go X < Y < Z
257.726 , -237.253 ,11.0713
Rotzz RotX < RotY < RotZ
0.0 , 0.0 , 1.15
That's the problem
Use this XML:-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ASCII" ?>
<itemlist>
<item model="310" name="phils_compnd_gate">
<position x="257.726" y="-237.253" z="11.0713" />
<rotation format="axisangle" x="0" y="0" z="1.15" angle="0" />
</item>
</itemlist> Just fix the angle
What you mean "just fix the angle" i mean i dint get you! ?
well i tried yours !but the object is not even present in map !
Hmm. I can't fix it now
One other advantage of using XML files for maps is they don't count towards the object limit of 2000. While most people wont hit that limit, it might be reached by very big maps.
Yea.
And some big disadvantages are:-
1. Some one can copy your hard work, with a little brain.
2, No one like to download shits.
So what should i do , how can this be solved!
Last solution:-
Open your map editor, make that thing again.
ANd this time, copy the right xyz coords
Kakan , i did it many times but same problem! so how about CreateObject , can i try using createobject???
Will it fix !
Maybe, try it. That's the last thing you can do.
