DUCK'S GUIDE TO ARENA MODDING V1
« Reply #40 on: July 28, 2009, 08:21:18 AM »
And here is  the tutorial about fences   (and also all the previous lessons)
The tutorial is big because it comes with all the samples (gmf compiled and decompiled).


https://gametechmods.com/uploads/files/modding_arenaV3.1.rar

Anyone who would like to correct / complete it is strongly encouraged.
 And indeed, that will please me a lot, especially if beginners like me share what they discover;  If everybody write a chapter, correct a section,etc,  we will quickly have a good, nearly complete tutorial. If only DuckRa2 and i do it, it will take years.


As i 'm on holidays, i won't touch it for a month.

I WILL look it through, in the next month (your vacation time), Phil.
Cool work, on the perimeter fence(s).
Input is appreciated. :)

Wow, that tutorial was suprisingly simple (even for me :P)
Thanks Duck
Damn I should probably put something fancy in this bit huh?

Sorry to double post, but this is urgent.
Im trying to make my own arena (modded) but yeah i've hit a wall i cant work out.
Basically, im trying to modd the lutze tournament arena for my tournament, so as ducks guide said, i started with the py file.
I have it in the arenas folder, and i have edited it to try out some cameras.
But, when i go to the game (DSL) the arena doesnt appear in the arenas menu (i have saved the py, and it has an arena folder in mymodarenas)
Help please?
Does this only happen with DSL?

if it ever does that, there is for sure an error in the py. there is a problem in the cameras I'm guessing. could you copy paste the code so I can see it (the part you changed, a before and after)

Never mind, it was my dad who sorted it out for me (he should really get into this!)
Now im trying to get the angle right on the cameras, in phill's tutorial, what numbers do A and B represent (step 4 adding static cameras)
Duck is it alright if i get your IM or something, as theres still a few questions i have about arena modding.

Thanks, Duck, for helping others.  
If the arena doesn't appear in the list, it is almost always an error in the py.
Matt, ae you using Python to edit these pys?
.
Input is appreciated. :)

Nope, notepad and notepad++.
Its all working now.
Now i have a new problem :D
I made a decompiled gmf, in the folder where the original gmf is, like in the old tutorial.
Im using the dummy gmf compiler, but when i compile it, it comes up with an error.
All i've done in the decompiled gmf is get rid of the saw motors and the saws (im modding the lt tournament arena)
Any help?
