^idd. thx for that Rof if you're reading

[Beetle]

Okay so I guess it works. Here's the new download.

It needs a lot of work in order to look sourceified.

Also, you failed to pakrat various textures (not all, though).

[Beetle]

hmm, I did that auto download.

I'm having the most trouble with the last area. I can't think of any interesting architecture, and those huge, red-trimmed bricks, yea i know they gotta go.

Thanks for the updated map file! It still has texture issues as others have pointed out but it's more viewable then it was before.

I will go ahead and add it to our dedicated FF Map server and update it as you make changes to it (or release new versions).

To avoid people from having to delete the map before connecting to the server to check out an updated version please rename future versions to something like: ff_thecove_a2, ff_thecove_a1a or whatever.

With it being on the server then at least people can look at it and give you input based on what the current status is on it.

ok so try this, sorry, i wish there was a way to test but i think I got them all now. http://files.filefront.com/ff_thecov.../fileinfo.html

btw: after I get the bspzip thing I'll change the map names when I update the map version, but as it is all im doing is getting things organized, not really changing anything else.

yeah what the hell do you do with the .bak file

[-=bingo-bango=-]

i was confused with that as well

[Circuitous]

Way to send the backup instead of the proper file.

[Beetle]

Circ, I didn't send just the bak file. Don't worry about it. I highlighted it by accident.

if you're daring, try this, and whoever does, thanks for being patient.

edit: at least tell me if its including the textures.

[Circuitous]

I didn't actually download it.

[Gator-]

same textures missing......

failed......again

Bro, I gave you a tutorial....it even has pictures to guide you, just follow it and you'll be fine :]

[Beetle]

I did the auto thing lol. Apparently that doesn't work. I was avoiding doing it manually but i guess i have to now. damn
. it.

[Gator-]

Hmm...the scan has always worked for me. Like you said, just do it manually - I'll be happy to test it once you actually fix it this time :].

[Beetle]

Someone please download this and see if there's any change, if not, I think will cry. http://files.filefront.com/ff_thecov.../fileinfo.html

If there are any less missing textures then I know I'm on the right track.

[-=bingo-bango=-]

il give it a shot

EDIT: Havent tried it yet, but im think it is working, because I already see that the bsp is already twice as big as the previous

[Gator-]

Actually, it is not twice as big my friend, it is 2 MB bigger than his previous newest version.

As I told Beetle in a PM - you will know you got em packed once the file of the map slightly increase...which it did.

Nonetheless, you failed to pakrat it again.

:L

[Beetle]

i give up then. the same textures are missing?
Its all from that cncr texture pack - I think it has to do with them having upper and lower case letters in them.

[417]

I haven't looked at your latest build yet but other reported it still has problems

Naming is very important and has to match ExAcTlY or thing don't work right.

If you take another stab at it I'll check it out. For the time being I'll just run the with missing textures on it. People interested in it at least can get a good grip of the maps layout and what not still.

[Beetle]

WOOT! I got it to work. I'll post the solution in the mapping resources thread since it will be vital to those of you that want to embed cncr04's textures into their maps. ST, or whoever wants, download at http://files.filefront.com/ff_thecov.../fileinfo.html

417 you can put this on as ff_thecove_a1. the next version I give out will be a2 so don't worry about naming now that I got this sorted out.
