EDIT (31-03-2011)

I'm ready to share the first beta of my map. There are some things that I have to change/fix but the important part is mostly done. Don't be scared of some twisted textures and traversable ceildings/walls. As the map was planned for PD, weapons sets are a bit weird.

Dowload the ips patch from here. Feed back, suggestions and comments are appreciated.

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

Hi.

I'm currently working in multiplayer map with Perfect Dark in mind. I've been following this tutorial, based in a previous version of the GE Editor but I supose everything is the same more or less. I have already modelled it but I'm having trouble passing it to the PD Setup Editor (it says there's a problem converting one of the texture files then freezes when loading the .obj file). It freezes in PD Editor but I can go further in the GE Editor. Everything goes well until when RoomIndicesXX.bin should be generated, none of these files are created.

I think it has something to do with texturing or grouping the rooms; or maybe the *.obj file is corrupted someway.
The map has been originally modelled with AutoCAD and exported as a 3ds file to 3DMax and DeleD for grouping and texturing. Then exported again to obj. Too many changes maybe.

I'm asking for someone to fix the *.obj file so I can work with it in the PD Setup Editor. This is my first map and I was probably too ambitious, you will notice that the map is HUGE, that's because it was made with a 4 team Capture the Case match with 8 simulants in mind.

Here are some pics of the map:

Thanks for the help.[/b]

The mtl file references the .png files but should refer to the .bmp files. Textures must be in same folder as textures.txt (are instead in subfolder). You are missing system.bmp, it's not present or in textures.txt file. Not split into room groups (groups are named Room01, Room02...Room0A, Room0B...Room0F...Room10, etc.

[Sogun]

Thanks, SubDrag.

It was my fault in many cases because I uploaded the wrong *.obj files.
About the references been *.png and not *.bmp files, that's because 3D MAX didn't want to recognize .bmp. Now I've edited the .mtl files and changed the extensions of the files, don't know if that will work.
Textures and files are in the same folder in my computer, just separated them while uploaded the files. In this new .obj files there should be room groups.

I've tried again and everything is the same. PD Editor says there're too many images to be injected in the rom, and GE Editor doesn't create the .bin files and displays nothing when exporting the backgruond file.

Here are the new corrected files.

EDIT: Are the .dwg .3ds and .max files of any use or are you checking only the .obj?

[SubDrag]

The obj file does not have rooms. They are :
01_pared
1C_techo

They should be Room01
Room02
etc

Obj file is missing mtllib NoPlace (rooms).mtl and also is missing usemtl _______ so it's not using any textures.

Don't put spaces also in any of your filenames.

.mtl file is incorrect when referencing textures. It has:
map_Kd -s 10.0 10.0 1.0 Pared32.bmp

should be
map_Kd Pared32.bmp

The previous file was actually much better and was importable really other than bitmap issue.

[Sogun]

It seems that groups in 3D MAX doesn't export to .obj. I will try tomorrow with DeleD.
I don't know what happened with that .mtl file, is the other right? Because I didn't change any option while exporting.

What about loading everything like one room? How should it look like? I know the map is very big, but compared with Eternally Aries' Super Mario Bros they are about the same number of polygons and that runs smoothly on Project64.

Can you recommend a program to create the .obj files?

Thank you.

[SubDrag]

I think its too big for one room coordinatewise. No clue on tools - others will need to chime in.

[EternallyAries]

Hm...

Have you try useing 21990 editor for PD.

Sorry if i have forgot the name of it i dont have the PD/GE editor on with me as of now.

But go in it and use a delete a file i forgot the name but it will make room for the textours.

This is what Wreck and other use to make room for the importing level for Goldeneye to PD.

So maybe you may have the same problem so just do that then import your level in your.

And if that did not work.

Try reduseing the polygons in DeleD.

It sud let you Import it then.

If it still dont work.

I may look into it for you but i still got to redownload everything since i got a computer crash.

Let hope my ideas work for you.

Hi EtrernallyAries.

I'm going to focus on getting the right .obj and .mtl files before trying to inject them on the PD rom, but I'll take note of your sugestions for the future.


I'm going to retexture and regroup with DeleD since I know playable multi maps were made with it. I will have to fix the polygon mesh, because it's a real mess (some polygons are flipped and some aren't).

So I'll post my doubts in the DeleD CE post and come back here if something is wrong while porting the level to the editor.

@SubDrag
In your second answer you said there were no rooms, but if renamed, could 01_pared, ..., 1C_techo be recongnized by the editor as rooms? I mean, those are actually groups of polys in Autocad.
And for a one [large] room map. There should exist Room01 or can the meshes don't be grouped?


Thank you.

[SubDrag]

Nah it needs to be more precisely made by you, so you need to name your groups properly. I think DeleD can do it

[Sogun]

Now I can load my map in the GE Setup Editor. Here is some proof of it.
It looks a bit weird but I think it has something to do with the way I applied the textures in DeleD. I'll try to fix that.

Now I have some questions:
-About the portals. I can't place them very accurately. Do they have to be perfectly placed in the joint of the rooms or could they be a little inside the room? What about their size, it's ok if they are bigger than the 'door'?
-How do I save my progress? I can see a lot of options but I can't tell wich is the correct. If I'm in the middle of editing portals and I want to continue later, what do I do?
-I haven't tried the PD Editor yet. Can I pass background, portals, clipping, etc from the GE Editor without much effort?

Thank you.

[SubDrag]

For portals, you need to export the room positions text file, then export the bgfile (using that text). Otherwise it won't save. Then save as project, and point to your ROM, and each time you change setup or clipping you can save as project again, and open project to see it. Actually save as bgfile + rooms probably will export with portals.

[Sogun]

What about portal position? Should it be very accurate or can I put it so so?

One more question. I want to put ladders in the level. Do I have to model them or the Editor has an option the put them in?

[EternallyAries]

You must make a ladder in DeleD in order to do it.

Then after you import it you got to clip it.

And as a reminder the ladder has to be flat.

[SubDrag]

Portals don't need to be precise they can be larger - but try the autoportal feature.

[Sogun]

Auto-portal didn't work well. It spamed some portals in the void but none next to the rooms.

The texture issues have been solved, as I said in the DeleD post.

Here is a pic of the level in Super Mario 64. Just for fun.

Thanks a lot.
