Arena Editing Help!

[Gazea2]

For my tournament, I made a combat arena with no walls. I made it twice the size as the original and now when bots move off of the original "floor" they are driving in mid air. Is there any way to make the floor larger?

[JoeBlo]

you have edited the floor collision only

you much find the floor visual object and give it the same numbers you gave the collision

[Gazea2]

Ok, thanks. I'll do that. :)

[Gazea2]

I can't find the section that changes that. Can anyone point me into the right direction?

[JoeBlo]

yeah sure.. just a minute

[JoeBlo]

you have edited this section

Code: [Select]

*NODE_NAME    arena_collision
and now you need to change this part to match 

Code: [Select]

*NODE_NAME    arena_display

[Gazea2]

I tried it and I got:

"Run time error "62"
Input past end of file"

Here is what I changed:

Code: [Select]

*GEOMOBJECT
{
*NODE_NAME arena_display
*NODE_SHADEVERTS 0
*NODE_TM
{
*NODE_NAME arena_display
*TM_ROW0 1 0 0
*TM_ROW1 0 1 0
*TM_ROW2 0 0 1
*TM_ROW3 0 0 0
}
*MESH
{
*TIMEVALUE 0
*MESH_NUMVERTEX 0
*MESH_NUMFACES 0
*MESH_VERTEX_LIST
{
*MESH_VERTEX 0 -25.4 -2.264982 -24.69729
*MESH_VERTEX 1 25.4 -2.264982 -24.69729
*MESH_VERTEX 2 -25.4 -2.264982 26.0027
*MESH_VERTEX 3 25.4 -2.264982 26.0027
*MESH_VERTEX 4 -25.4 -13.73502 -24.69729
*MESH_VERTEX 5 25.4 -13.73502 -24.69729
*MESH_VERTEX 6 -25.4 -13.73502 26.0027
*MESH_VERTEX 7 25.4 -13.73502 26.0027
At first there wasn't any *MESH_VERTEXs there and I added them in. Was I meant to do that?

[JoeBlo]

no your weren't :P

sorry wrong section (the stock arenas are very miss leading with the node names :P)

Code: [Select]

*NODE_NAME    floor
and/or

Code: [Select]

*NODE_NAME    floor perimeter
thats what you want 

Important: always back up copies before trying and changing everything.. then is you break it you kinda have an edit undo

protip: use my compiler. See my signature.

[Gazea2]

I have your compilers already, Serge. I just wasn't sure whether they worked with arenas.

[Serge]

They do (I hope).

[Madiaba]

They do (I hope).

They should work with most, no prob, if you don't mess up any syntax in the gmf..
 
Except for the Soccer arena.... I haven't looked at what the issue is yet, but it isn't much I think, for the goals have lost their 'remove collision' attribute, and some skins seem to not be applied, is all.
If you've time, Serge, this one whould be nice.  Was working on a new mod of this arena with Joe....
 
Gracias, amigo.
 
 
Gaz, make sure you make that back up...
If you can, upload and link your gmf... and I (or another) will look at it.

[Gazea2]

Can anyone make the skin twice as big as well, please?

[Gazea2]

Triple post!

Can anyone help? I'll post a picture of what the arena looked like with the messed up skin when I tried to edit it.

[JoeBlo]

didnt you pm me to do this for you yesterday ?

I will take your through the steps I took once I do it

[Gazea2]

Yes, sorry about that.

I just really want to get this done so that I can do the other arena. :)

[JoeBlo]

ok which ever comes first then... just be sure to let me know if its done before me so im not doing things already done.

[Gazea2]

Ok, if you could do this for me then I would be very grateful. :)
