Radar in OC?

Gary · Post by **Gary** » Thu Nov 27, 2008 2:38 am

Ok, I know how to make the car have the radar and make an object able to be tracked by it, but only in EP2...

I have EP2 mounted in OC, but I can't see or spawn the car, but I still can spawn "info_radar_target", but it has no use without the vehicle...

I was wondering if there's a way to fix this.

it works exactly the same way in oc as in ep2, also make sure you use prop_vehicle_jeep_episodic instead of the normal one

i could give you my testmap's vmf it has those radar things (also a little experemental thing on the gnome i was working on

)

Do you have ep2 content mounted or accessible in Hammer?

When in hammer (OC), and spawn a jeep, then go to change the model, its not there, I will try again later, but it may just be a glitch, sometimes the model selector is messed up.

And yes, it's mounted.

Mounting a game in Obsidian Conflict game is different from mounting it in Hammer. You need to add ep2 to your gameinfo.

Check here for instructions: http://wiki.neic0.de/?title=Obsidian_SDK_Installer

It is... I can make maps for EP2, EP1, HL2, OC, and I think portal, never tried portal though... not that it madders.

Unless, I got to edit the game info more, do I have to?

Look in your model browser in Hammer. At the top there should be a tab that says "All Mods". It should have the option for every game you mounted in it. If it doesn't you need to configure it in the gameinfo.

It always is... I always have it on "all mods".

No, I mean when you click on it, it should say ep2, ep1, hl2, etc. If it doesn't then you don't have that games content in Hammer.

Ex.
[All Mods]
-hl2
-ep2
-episodic
-cstrike
-lostcoast
-dod
-left4dead
-hl1

Thats what my model browser shows when I click on the [All Mods] tab at the very top.

Could you send me your game info? I have been trying over and over to get this to work, and worfox didn't answer on MSN...

Thanks for any help.

Also, list of games installed.

Portal (need to finish downloading...)
Half life 2
Ep1
Ep2
TF2 (not installed)

Also, if you didn't notice already, for a few hours(as long as I know) the wiki has been down. I just get the Error:

"Connection Interrupted

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again."

Steam · Post by **Shana** » Mon Jan 05, 2009 3:38 am

Well, neicos server is down once again, and with it the wiki.

Gary · Post by **Gary** » Mon Jan 05, 2009 4:37 am

Ah, Why don't you transfer it to this server, it seems well maintained and I have only once got an error from it.

You should be able to easily transfer the wiki with the database over to this server... though it would have to come back up first...

And do you have Ep2 content in hammer?

This is my gameconfig in my sourcesdk\bin\orangebox\bin folder:

Code: Select all

"Configs"
{
	"Games"
	{
		"Obsidian Conflict SVN SDK"
		{
			"GameDir"		"c:\program files\valve\steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\obsidiansvn\Obsidian SDK"
			"hammer"
			{
				"GameData0"		"c:\program files\valve\steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\obsidiansvn\Obsidian SDK\Obsidian.fgd"
				"TextureFormat"		"5"
				"MapFormat"		"4"
				"DefaultTextureScale"		"0.250000"
				"DefaultLightmapScale"		"16"
				"GameExe"		"C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\Steam.exe"
				"DefaultSolidEntity"		"func_detail"
				"DefaultPointEntity"		"prop_physics_multiplayer"
				"BSP"		"C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\kornsoadhts\sourcesdk\bin\orangebox\bin\vbsp.exe"
				"Vis"		"C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\kornsoadhts\sourcesdk\bin\orangebox\bin\vvis.exe"
				"Light"		"C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\kornsoadhts\sourcesdk\bin\orangebox\bin\vrad.exe"

				"-MaterialExcludeDir0"		"left4dead\editor"
				"-MaterialExcludeDir1"		"left4dead\tools"
			}
		}
	}
	"SDKVersion"		"3"
}

and this is my gameinfo in my obsidiansvn\Obsidian SDK folder:

Code: Select all

"GameInfo"
{
	game	"Obsidian Conflict SVN SDK"
	title	"OBSIDIAN CONFLICT SVN SDK"
	title2	"OBSIDIAN CONFLICT SVN SDK"
	type multiplayer_only
	nomodels 0
	nohimodel 1
	nocrosshair 1
	hidden_maps
	{
		"test_speakers"		1
		"test_hardware"		1
	}

	developer "Obsidian Conflict Team"
	developer_url "http://www.ObsidianConflict.com"
	icon "resource/obsidian"

	FileSystem
	{
		SteamAppId				420		// This will mount all the GCFs we need (240=CS:S, 220=HL2).
		ToolsAppId				211		// Tools will load this (ie: source SDK caches) to get things like materials\debug, materials\editor, etc.
		
		//
		// The code that loads this file automatically does a few things here:
		//
		// 1. For each "Game" search path, it adds a "GameBin" path, in <dir>\bin
		// 2. For each "Game" search path, it adds another "Game" path in front of it with _<langage> at the end.
		//    For example: c:\hl2\cstrike on a french machine would get a c:\hl2\cstrike_french path added to it.
		// 3. For the first "Game" search path, it adds a search path called "MOD".
		// 4. For the first "Game" search path, it adds a search path called "DEFAULT_WRITE_PATH".
		//

		//
		// Search paths are relative to the base directory, which is where hl2.exe is found.
		//
		// |gameinfo_path| points at the directory where gameinfo.txt is.
		// We always want to mount that directory relative to gameinfo.txt, so
		// people can mount stuff in c:\mymod, and the main game resources are in
		// someplace like c:\program files\valve\steam\steamapps\half-life 2.
		//
		SearchPaths
		{
			Game				|gameinfo_path|.
			Game				ep2
			Game				episodic
			Game				lostcoast
			Game				cstrike
			Game				left4dead
			Game				hl1
			Game				dod
			Game				|all_source_engine_paths|hl2
		}
	}
}

Keep in mind if you don't have the svn (which you most likely don't), you will need to make the appropriate changes wherever you see "svn"

If you'd rather get it right without a hassle: http://www.ronjonproductions.com/downloads/obsdk.zip

That's the download link to the obsidian sdk installer. It works but if you have a problem just tell me and I'll help you fix it.
