Well, it looks like because I had my GSC file set up to specify the axis/allies models. If I remove the following lines:

 

game["allies"] = "sas";

game["axis"] = "russian";

game["attackers"] = "axis";

game["defenders"] = "allies";

game["allies_soldiertype"] = "woodland";

game["axis_soldiertype"] = "woodland";

 

It appears to work okay.

 

your gsc file must have this info in it, this is not an option! something somewhere is wrong!

Sammy - I ran the map on the new mod and I got that strange "FX" all weapons viewable error thingie you see on some maps:

 

123731076-4.jpg

 

And here is a screen shot of the log file:

 

123731078-4.jpg

 

Any idea why that is happening?

 

yes this happened because you removed that info from your main gsc file and you have not created your createfx file and perhaps have not even put the createfx in your main gsc.... this is why your little red fx is coming up also probley, I'm not sure because its not in front of me, but it seems as though you have added some fx without finishing all of the steps it takes to do it :(

 

It kinda goes like this man....everything must tell everything else what to do and sometimes its done in several different files and ways even though it all means only 1 thing is gonna happen but it has to be put in several spots in order for it to happen.... this is only 1 reason so many people quit trying to make maps, so I have been told.

damn this is way to much typing at the end of a day whoa......

oh yeah 1 last thing....crap.....

when you add something to your map ie: car, truck, heli w/e you must also make sure that the whole model actually loaded for you, in the bottom part of your radient screen you will everything that you added on to a map, from part of what I read, it seems that you have something that has failed to load completely, its missing a part or parts maybe?

it will tell you along with;

load house_3

wall clock

plant 3

couch 1

tv_2 ect...

successful

 

load avm21 w/e failed

 

you need to look at that list that shows you all that info, to see if something has failed to load.....

ok I'm done!

oyeah not everything thats in the list of stuff provided in xmodels can actually be used in a multiplayer map! a lot of those things are meant for single player maps!

Ok now I swear I'm done!

depending on what you have in your map your main gsc should look like this

 

along with your main gsc in raw/maps/mp ou have done fx you should have a mp_yourmap_fx.gsc which should look like this depending on what you have done ok....

 

in raw/maps you should have a createfx folder on the top of mp, and again it depends on what you have done but should look like this, which should also contain a mp_yourmap_fx.gsc which is different than the prior one you saw above but yet the same because its telling the other one what to do and where to do it!

Well, I got the red fx stuff when I set my player models to SAS and Russian. After I removed those lines from the GSC file it loaded up fine I the ftag beta mod. In the ftag mw2 mod currently on Chicago I get an error saying I have exceeded the 400 fx limit. So I will dig through it tomorrow and see what is going wrong.

Yes the 400 limit means just that. Too many unique effects for the mod and map together to handle. The beta improved on that a bit but it would be best to limit fx to what is really needed.

  • Problems?
    • Getting a message "Exceeded 400Fxs assets"? Make sure to comment out or remove the line impactfx,mp_yourmap from your Zone File to fix

     

    Thanks to Sven71, ChrisP.

All fixed. Yeah Labob - I had some extra "stuff" in the zone file from when I was messing around with weather/atmospheric effects, as well as the impactfx line. I took those out and was able to open the map up in all the mw2 ftag mods I have on my computer without any problems.

Haha - well, I went through and looked at all the things you discussed. I didn't have anything not loading properly in the map. The whole issue was because of my messed up zone file - I had a bunch of crap in there from when I was messing around with weather effects, etc.
