Thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide. Recalculating stability resolves this and the structures show as green (where appropriate) and can be saved and played without issue, but I'm wondering if there's something I'm overlooking which causes them to load with no stability. If saved like this and play tested the buildings obviously just collapse on any interaction. The other issue is that whenever I load a prefab the stability of the structure is always nonfunctional, or yellow when shown in the editor. I must be missing something obvious as this seems like it would be an important editing feature. Further, when play testing these areas are simply cutoff. I have to edit them by using the "move whole prefab up" function, and when I return my prefab to the appropriate level everything below ground level is invisible.
#HOW TO DOOM 3 MAP EDITOR HOW TO#
The primary issue I'm having is that I can't figure out how to set the ground level while building so that I can edit the subterranean parts of my prefabs. Specifically around ground level and stability. I'm still stumped however by a couple of seemingly simple issues I can't figure out.
Your videos were extremely helpful Slaan, and the comment on YouTube you shared with someone around how z and g function were critical in helping me along. I've been using level editors since the Doom Wad days, and have been noodling with building prefabs for 7DTD for years, but just didn't have the patience until the editing tools were made available. You can edit the xml that is in the prefab folder for your prefab also so you can have allowed biomass allowed towns etc (simply search other prefab xmls you will see these lines and copy into your prefab.xml and add or remove biomes/towns you don't wish.) So if it spawns in desert it have desertground in forest it have forest etc. The very layer first layer under your prefab you should place terrain filler this will then when spawned into the world change to the ground of the cell it is in. You still have to place your prefab name is reg- simply copy whole line of an existing one and replace name with your prefab name. I made a prefab and exported it without selecting a group for it and i would like to spawn it just in green biomes (city or not doesn't matter, but i build it with pine forest terrain floor/garden)Īnd how to handle spawn in cities? export it with or without piece of street? xml or would it be already done in this case? Is it necessary to choose a group for the prefab? What happens if I do not?Īnd if there is a group selected is it necessary to edit the rwg. Thanks for the reply slaan your awesome :-) Worked on the hotel I am updating lol may not be so lucky other times tho. What was wrong block was replaced with missing block and in pills editor I replaced missing blocks with woodframe. Just copied a16 blocks to a17 renamed it myblocksa16.xml and copypasted from the spreadsheet what I needed. Well funny enough I worked out how to do it lol. I've only brought into 17 bits and pieces that I absolutely could not be without as the whole process (for lack of better words) gets right on my tits. This is the starting point though, but be prepared to spend time in both the A16 and 17 builds, some fixes are easier to implement pre-conversion and I found it was a much less painful process if you spend some time prepping the a16 prefabs beforehand. It's almost ready so I've created a thread with a linkĭone this one a little while ago as a few ppl in the FB group were asking, though this is opening a can of worms because the amount of time and effort required to fully fix up an old prefab can vary quite dramatically depending on what it's been made out of and painted with. Any idea about that?Īlso once it's done, it would be great if I got some people to test it and tell me what they think about it and if it can go in the prefab pack.
While other xcustom prefab are here, mine is never created. I got my prefab in "prefabs.xml" and in "rwgmixer.xml". I must do something wrong here but i don't know what it is. But for some reasons when I try to make a random gen without manually insert it into the world, my prefab is never created. I tried to put it in a randomgen and it works, but only when I insert it threw xml with coordonates. The editor is great and once you get your hand on it, building is quite fast. It is almost ready, i just need to polish it and tweak a few things. Hi! Thanks for your videos Slaan, this has been very helpfull! I've made my first prefab: a rave party in an abandoned factory.
