Posted: Wed Jan 03, 2007 4:45 am Post subject: Installing custom maps for UA-JOE |
|
|
I have tried a couple of times to load a map I made with the editor that came with the UA mod (Great Work) but they don`t show up on the single player or the lan/all-coop. All maps are made for a coop missions, so yes sp is out! I saved the .bms file in my jo folder/no go, and in the mod folder/again no go. One thing that I noticed was that when I saved a new map it tried to give a .bmn format. So I tried them both map.bms and map.bmn. neither worked.
I consider myself an avid mapper so my excitement is hard to contain!
Please Help on this one.

UA does not use .bms files, nor npj files for nile, if you use the editor that came with the mod or the nile I fixed to work with the mod, they will export as .bmn, and for nile export as .npx files, If you did export as bmn, I have no idea why it did not work, as we have never encountered that problem before, make sure that the maps are NOT in the jo folder, but are placed in the folder that contains the mod also. _________________

Thanks crack that was it, the bmn format. but I think I have a bad copy of the editor because when I went to the UA dir I had a map name of
UA-Quarry Disruption.bmn.bms. I thought it might have been a fluke so I puy together a quikie and I used the - save and export fuction and got the map name of test.bmn.bms again.
Needless to say a simple rename and it`s all on Again thankyou,
Should I get another copy or just rename them, I don`t see anything other then that.
One more thing you said there was a NILE-UA editor? Can you tell me were I can get a copy of it, or could you send me 1? TY _________________

Just put that exe in the nile folder, use it only for UA, also, you must set the resource directory to point to the folder that mod is in. _________________

no idea, LoA and I and the others involved agreed, whoever has it, host away, it was the mappers beta, there are various places hosting it right now, if you can get a good download, feel free to host it here also. this link has a pretty decent download speed.

this is pretty much going to be it, we more or less got extremely tired of messing around with nova and quit working on it. This is going to be the last release. It is fully working, and shouldn't have any problems with the mod at all. _________________
