A few problems making maps

the asylum · 12-08-2009, 03:16 PM

FYI: I'm working with the most recent version of FF

So I followed the tutorial at the top of the board, and I ran into a few problems:

1. There is no "ff" folder in my Fortress Forever folder.
2. In Hammer, there was no directory field for Mod directory or RMF directory.

So when I went to run Hammer, every brush or entity I created did not show up. At all.

Could someone clear this up for me?

Read it again, you did it wrong. And slow down this time.

ah yeah.... follow the steps more carefully, it says nothing about an ff directory

We are talking about this tutorial, right?

5. Time to set some directories. The Game Executable Directory should be:
\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\fortressforever\
The Mod Directory should be:
\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\fortressforever\ff\
The Game Directory should be:
\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\fortressforever\
And finally, your RMF directory should be:
\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\fortressforever\ff\map s\

Secondly,

I was looking at: http://forums.fortress-forever.com/s...ad.php?t=13993

now I understand the confusion - The one I was looking at is a sticky thread and so thought that was the one you'd be looking at

yeah the one you linked is very old...use the sticky thread that elmo linked and you should be set. Also gl!
