add wad

ok i could just put it in with the folder of the map but i want to know how to add a wad in the compile process,

i also have hlcc and i know how to do it in that , but it doesnt compile cs maps, [is it a command line or something?],any 1 of these questions answered would b appreciated

ty :kitty:

HLCC will compile CS maps, or any other HL mods for that matter. In fact, I can't think of anything special you need to compile a map for a mod, the compile process should be the same regardless... Just change your BMP output folder to your half-life/cstrike/maps folder and that should be all you need to do.

i did but it didnt put the bsp in that folder wen i checked or the folder the rmf was in :sad:

fast answering btw

HLCC is old, but simple, and it works.

i have yet to see it ever let me down, on basic compiling..

usually its someone who has a path error, do not type the path in browse to it..



use THIS tutorial to assist you.

i have already read your tut[thats why im using hlcc] but it dosent state how to set it up for cs maps, i take it that i have to change the command line?

If the BSP isn't in EITHER your maps folder or the source's folder, then it sounds like there is a compile error that is stopping the map compiling at all. Post your compile log and we should be able to help.

ok heres the log [i think] :

What do you mean by 'add a wad', build it into the .BSP, or just compile with it listed? The latter one is done by listing the WADs inside your .MAP file (i.e. there's no point in adding extra WADs as you obviously haven't used any textures from them), and the former is a -nowadtextures (to add all textures used) or -wadinclude "wadname1.wad" "wadname2.wad" command with HLCSG (thanks to Orph for the thing about the quotes)

time and again i ask this question, why is the documents folder in the compile steps?

put everything you need to compile with in the editor folder.. except HL of course..

as i stated above THE ANSWER IN THE BIG RED BOX use the browse feature to set the paths.. it shouldn't matter that its for another mod..

sighs

all it takes is a bit of experimentation.. i know my answer is correct, at least as far as the question goes, i cannot foresee if you asked the wrong question :sad:

[edit] mumbles i HATE that damned red box

quotations are required as in

-wadinclude "tampus.wad1" "tampus.wad2" "tampus.wad3"

[edit] damnit i meant to add this post, not post a new :sad:

First of all, that isn't your compile log, it seems to be an output of all your compile settings. Your compile log should be called "<yourmapsname>.log" and can be found in the same folder as your level's .map file.

However, this seems to have shown your problem partially anyway - the BSP directory should be C:\\Sierra\\Half-Life\\cstrike\\maps.

I still think the problem is quite possibly a compile error however, so if this doesn't fix your problem, then try posting your compile log an we will prolly spot some problem.

i think that is the compile log wen i used hlcc coz there isnt anything else

i think the question i asked first was a bit too bland wat i want to know is ..

wen compiling a map with hammer[with zhlt] how to add a wad in with the compiling process so its in with the bsp

or

how to use hlcc for cs?

[/edit] i want to add more than 1 wad in

growls

i give up, both questions were answered..

good luck trampus

k i have re-read the posts in detail and i c ur point

but where is the command line suppose to be put

e.g.

-wadinclude "tampus.wad1" "tampus.wad2" "tampus.wad3"?

its also in the BLUE bud :rolleyes:

ok i have decided to take ur advice on experimenting with the settings and i have got it working now

soz if i was a pain in the a*s

experiment?....hell, its right there in black and white....

sometimes it just doesnt pay to get up in the morning... :rolleyes:

Doc Brass... :dodgy:

yes -addwadtextures is the one to use.

Er, that command line doesn't exist :razz:

The best one is -wadinclude "blah.wad", unless you use every single texture in all your loaded WADs.

matt.. shhhh

you are embarrassing us... again

Oh well nobodies perfect.
