Good news banshee, i found out how to do it Smile

Good for you, TerroR, but I will still make that tutorial... I'm just creating a sample picture and checking for some final details that I havent tried before:

So far, the tutorial will probably cover:

- converting normal buildings to SHP
- converting defensive buildings to SHP
- converting defensive buildings to SHP and turrets to voxel
- creating a voxel with GMAX
- creating a mech

I've been searching for a lot of voxel info on this... (been majorly stuck on that) and decided to cut all voxel parts of the tutorial. Otherwise I will never release it...

I've cleaned up this thread a bit. Removed flaming and a triple post by Terror. (Regardless of the time limit between the posts you should still avoid double/triple posting. Edit your original message if need be.)

Hiya, I've been starting mapping again but I need help with various stuff.

1.How do I change names on buildings and those billboard signs, the ones with the texts like "No escape from Archers Asylum" and so on..?

2.How do I make tunnels work? I use the tunnel tool but I can just go through one of the tunnelend and not the whole width of the tunnel. I looked in the tutorial in FinalSun but the pic is too blurry and the stuff said in the text dosent work.

3.I want to make this trigger, that when you capture a neutral tiberium refinery you will also get the harvester for it, I want the harvesters to idle until they are captured too, I have tried everything but nothing works. thanks in advance.

BTW, what is the newest version for Final Sun? I have v1.01 but I want to make sure it's the best and newest version of it.

Ask it in TumSun mapping forum and i'll answer them (i'm not going to write an entire tutorial here atm!)

Banshee · Posted: Wed Aug 25, 2004 7:33 pm Post subject:

No need to go so far Wink

. Here're some answers:

1) Just change the Name of the buildings.

I.e.:

Code:

[BBOARD16]
Name=Join PPM Forums. We save modders!

2) http://forums.sgcentral.net/index.php?showtopic=66

3) I havent tried that before, so I cant answer this one.

-----------------------------------------------------------

The newest FinalSun is 1.01. And btw, feel free to ask mapping questions here that this forum was also made for map editing.

You don't need an entire tutorial for that. Have you ever cloned a unit? Same thing here, only you're cloning the plant. Vinifera's plant is BIGBLUE3 in the firestrm.ini. Don't forget to add the cloned plant to the [TerrainTypes] list.
