Joben Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 OK this is actualy pretty simple. I dont do much with multiplayer but i did make a tiny little mod a while ago... ok in the code folder there are the cgame, game and ui folders. (there are some others but those are the ones taht interest us. inside each of them among the code files there is a .bat program of the same name as the folder. Run those. When they are all done go back to the code folder and run buildvms.bat That should do it. assuming im remembering right. Then you need to make yourself a .pk3 and put your freshly compiled files in it in a folder named vm. Btw you should have 6 files cgame.map, cgame.qvm jk2mpgame.map, jk2mpgame.qvm, ui.map, ui.qvm. (the compiler spits them out into a folder somewere in the area.) I frankly dont know what the .map files are, you only seem to realy need the .qvm ones...I donno as i said i dont do much coding and only muddled my way through this a couple times a few months ago. See what you can do with that, you should be able to get a runable version of something like the rocketspeed thingy...The one i did tripled the speed of all the guns projectiles, quite entertaining.

sonictrio Posted August 7, 2002 Author Share Posted August 7, 2002 thanks, but it really didn't do a thing!?! I did what you said, i edited my rocket speed thing in game (weapons.c or somethin like that) and did the .bat compile thing in each foled then clicked build vm.bat. the compiled files weren't anywhere (not in the vm folder or base) D'ya know what to do now?? By the way thank for replyin' again, a lot of people seem to view it then just leave!! Everyone PLZ help!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonictrio Posted August 7, 2002 Author Share Posted August 7, 2002 by the way, i don't have a folder in base called vm?!? (sorry, i just like addinf fett to the end of my text...!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joben Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 Ok. hmm when you run the .bat programs how long do they take? If its working it should take a couple minutes for each one to finish. and dozens of screens of stuff should scroll past in the window. If they finish Realy fast then you have a problem ironicaly. For some reason they dont work for a lot of people (including me) and you have to get a replacement set. I cant remember were on earth you get them...ask Emon, or if all else fails i will email them to you. Ive looked into this so some clarification: When you run them (remember im talkin bout the .bat programs in the game, cgame and ui folders) they spit out their results to a folder they make themselves. I have my code files in C:\Games\JediKnight2\GameData\code its makes some new folders: C:\Games\JediKnight2\GameData\code\base\vm to put the things in. That help any?

sonictrio Posted August 8, 2002 Author Share Posted August 8, 2002 I'm gonna start checkin sites today for new bat. files. I timed how long they work and it's exactly 2 seconds!! Same with all the others (they all have Bad command or file name and errors opening some files...?). I checked in base MILLIONS of times but their still doesn't seem to be a vm folder (probably because my batch files aren't working!). If you find the address please post it up here, 'cos I've been stuck on this simple coding for ages. Thanks, again!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonictrio Posted August 8, 2002 Author Share Posted August 8, 2002 sorry about the two 'cloned' messages! I went to a site and it said the .bat files included in the tools download only work for - 2000, NT and XP (I think), mine being ME so it doesn't work. You'd think they should have included that in the readme! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
