Moving Doodads to Maps

[Brett]

I need to get the doodads from one map to another what do i do

i did both the exports from the map in object editor and both the imports, the one im tacking from has custom models

 

[Kercyn]

Use them as you would use any other custom model...

 

[Brett]

when i place them they show up as green boxes

 

[Kercyn]

You need to change their variation. Doodads have many variations, but custom ones have only one. Change their variation to 0 and you should be fine.

 

[Brett]

still says it cant load the mdl these are custom models from a different map and yes they work on the other one

 

[Kercyn]

Are you sure you're doing it correctly? Maybe you should check how to import and use custom models...

 

[Brett]

do u know where i can find out how to import my terrain to a different map?
that would be much easier than models since im to far in to start over

 

[Kercyn]

I don't know much about importing stuff from one map to another, but I guess it's not that difficult and a single search will help more than me

import the file, make sure you have the imported model directory as the model, then save exit, and reopen your WE and the new model will show up as normal.
