map and sprites

When i give my map to a friend for him to try it his server crashes and am wonder what is wrong with taht and can anyone help me figure out how to make sprites using wally?

 

Ya I no I am a noob at creating maps but u have to start somewhere :biggrin:

Sprites aren't made in Wally. You need Sprite Wizard. I haven't used it much, but here is a link to the utility.

As to the crashing, sorry, you need to be a bit more specific about the error messages that occur if anyone is gonna help you. It crashes is a bit to broad of a problem.

Also, in the future, please keep editing questions to the editing forum.

without the error message he had when it crashed, its hard to say, but most times it is because you forgot a model.. be sure he has all the relevant files..

there is a small chance it is an entity issue, but i am betting its a model..

post the error message

your link was bad

then... google search it :biggrin:

it is a common program..

i bet VERC has it.. hell SP used to, before the upgrade..

So it is. I got it from the countermap.counter-strike.net mapping utilities page, a bit out of date but very descriptive about what programs you'll need to map and where to get em. They made it look like they had the file mirrored and I didn't expect their mirror to have gone down. In that case, does anybody know what the current Wavelength url is? Supposively they hosted Sprite Wizard prior to their move.

TBH, if you're just starting, there's no real need to make your own sprites.

you might try a sprite viewer instead.. at least you can see how one looks before you use it.. actually you can view them all prior to placing in hammer..
