importing .map s into RF edit

[GMer]

is is possible to import a .map file info RF edit, or can RF edit not do that?

[Lucky_foot]

Do you mean the level editor, RFeditPro (or something named like that?)

If that's the case, then yes you can. I did it yesterday with a terrain map I made.

In RFEditPro you can open a .map just like you would open a .3dt file. Just select the *.MAP file type when opening a file. Don't know about RFEdit, though, if that's what you really meant.

Thank you very much, I checked and I use RFedit pro, so thank you for pointing that out for me, now I can use Nim's Mega 3D Terrain Creator in my game (*evil laugh* )

ok... I tried it and I get this:

** BSP Compile Version: 15
** Build Date/Time: Jan 31 2005,06:32:56
--- Load Brush File ---
Num Solid Brushes : 758
Num Cut Brushes : 0
Num Hollow Cut Brushes : 0
Num Detail Brushes : 0
Num Total Brushes : 758
--- Remove Hidden Leafs ---
PlaceEntities: No valid entities for operation 78.
Failed to remove hidden leafs.

.

What is operation 78?

Found out what it was... I had all my entities outside the map
When I import the .map file into reality factory, for some reason around each area there is a change in terrain a block is created from the highest terrain height to the lowest, I can delete them, it is just a pain in the... you know.

If you are making the terrain in nems. Wait for the next release of Equity. It will import nems terrains in obj format and make it into an actor without all those blocks.

Thanks bernie!
When is the next version coming out?

@bernie: Wow. That's really cool and will hopefully save some work...

[bernie]

When is the next version coming out?

Within the next 2 weeks I would think. We've a lot of testing to do on another cool addition before we release.

Just waiting Bernie, u rock¡¡¡

[bernie]

Not long now still some testing to do. We want to have it right don't we.

I know why the blocks were in place, I forgot to turn off the hint brushes!
Though leaving them in does allow to create cool cave-like levels.
