Hi guys, have a question about modifying a main map, for example:
I think that maps how "PalacaArena" or "KarumTower" and "KarumSecret" have been created modifying the original maps.
How can i modify a main map to create a gladiator map? 
P.S. I see the mod "Dark Isle" has a file ".mp", but the original map "Island_M8" don´t have this file, how is possible? |

You can't actually modify a map (change it's geometry) without the source MP file.
However, it is possible to re-use a map, and fill it with different enemies, objects, etc, just through scripting. This is what I'm doing with the Tutorial map right now (almost done ) |

Thanks SR for the explanation, but then, how to do this the creator of this mod?, perhaps using a "decompiler"? Exist this? 
Or maybe it's easier to try creating a copy with LED?,my intention is only a room

I think you should give LED a go, and see how you like it. For a single room, it's probably easier to create something, rather than trying to modify an existing map.
Who knows, you might end up creating a whole new level!

I´m here again!
I´ve a problem with textures in LED, I follow the tutorial "FHWL" step by step, but the following occurs:
After compiling the map first time, I try to see it with OpenGL, but everything appears black.
(I only can see the map in 3D if i do the following: r-clic\update.bw\tonta.bw)
But besides, appears the problem of textures. Here is the pic:
And here playing the "map"
I really don´t understand why it happens 
I have no luck!!

Don't worry, the hardest part can be setting up the textures and stuff.
What mmp are you using for textures? Have you put it in the .LVL file like this:
Bitmaps -> barb.mmp

You have set the Null texture in everywall, I think that you have compile the map, and then use the update *.bw option.
The asigning textures work weird sometimes. |

| Are you remembering to press "Enter" with every texture assignment? Clicking with mouse won't work. |

Yes i press enter, i open again the file tonta.mp and re-assigned all the textures, but nothing 
I think that "i have set the Null texture in everywall" as esfumato said
I forgot one thing!!, a file appears in my "Tonta" folder named "DefCh" and said this:
E:\Friendware\Blade\BODLoader\Mods\Tonta\compiler\tonta.MP E:\Friendware\Blade\BODLoader\Mods\Tonta\compiler\tonta.bwError al abrir película.Error al reproducir película.Error al abrir película.Error al reproducir película.Fin con Cancelar.
Is the map corrupt?

Ok, you're using
E:\Friendware\Blade\BODLoader\Mods\Tonta\compiler\
as the folder for your map? Did you put the texturtes here too?
Why is the folder called compiler? |

I follow the explanations of prospero for create the compiler and the map folder

You just need 3 filepaths in a file. (All on one line)
C:\Codemasters\Severance\BODLoader\Mods\MyMap\compiler\Bc.exe C:\Codemasters\Severance\BODLoader\Mods\MuMap\compiler\MyMap.MP C:\Codemasters\Severance\BODLoader\Mods\MyMap\MyMap.bw
First points to location of BC.exe
Second to .MP file
Third to where you want the.BW file to be saved.
save it as copile.bat in the same folder as BC.exe for convenience.
Click the file and the .MP will be compiled.
I usually make a subfolder 'compiler' inside the main map folder and keep a copy of all the .dll's and BC.exe inside + the.MP file and set the last filepath to save the .BW file to the main map folder.

Ah, I see.
I notice that your error is in:
E:\Friendware\Blade\BODLoader\Mods\Tonta\compiler\tonta.bw
tonta.bw SHOULD be in:
E:\Friendware\Blade\BODLoader\Mods\Tonta\
I presume the texture files are in Tonta, and NOT Tonta\compiler\ ? |

Yes, the textures are in the folder tonta. I´ll try to create the map again with this method  |

Check your 'copile.bat' file.
The last line should NOT have 'compiler\' in it. |

Having a compiler folder in the map is just my peculiar way of working. You don't have to do it that way.
But the map is compiling OK. It's just the textures that are not being read somehow.
If there is no texture assigned, or the textures aren't being loaded, the engine tends to 'borrow' any available ones. In this case it is using the sky dome, which must be the only one that is loaded.
Check the .lvl file to see if the filepath(s) to the mmp file(s) are correct.
If the textures are OK in the game, but don't show in the OGL view, try deleting the Pak folder in the Maps/MyMap folder. (you should do this anyway when you make changes). Recompile the map - run it and then exit. Then open the mp file and try the OGL viewer.
Don't be disheartened IG. You are doing more than fine. This sort of weirdness happens now and then. I still get it and I have been doing it for years. |
