[QUESTION] cant teleport to new world
« on: February 20, 2011, 07:55:56 am »
Hello guys,

ive been messing around with "allwater" over talliis and everytime i was opening my adt in noggit it would delete all the water when i saved.

so yea i think my adt is now corrupted because everytime i put it in my MPQ patch my wow crashes on loading screen ...can anyone look at it?

I have no clue on how to fix it ... i tried the "repfix" and in taliis i killed all water and saved, re-saved in noggit ...same problem

Did you add a DBC table entry (along with a .wdt) along side your new .adt? WoW will crash otherwise, if you don't have them to support the .adt. Also, use allwater at the end of your creation, exactly because of what you are experiencing. Allwater is sort of meant as a "finishing touch" so to speak ;)

yea i did all the required patches ...at 1st it wasnt crashing but now it is so i just started a new map again.  I wont mess up with water until the end i guess. =)


Another thing tho,

how come sometimes I make the MPQ patch and theres just no map ingame?  I took the same names "NewWorld" and i emptied the MPQ and re-added the new files.  When i teleport to the coords (server AND client in noggit) there is just nothing...  It's been doing that like 2 times on 3 maps. Theres only 1 map i could teleport to.  I dont really know why its doing that... i just created a new map again and i still cant teleport there....i mean i can but there is nothing im just floating in "nothing"


edit: forgot to say ... im deleting my cache folder everytime,  is there anything else i must delete to see the new files inside the MPQ if you know what i mean

You don't really have to delete your cache :) the cache is for npcs, items and other server side stuff :)
ehm did you try to use offsetfix on your adt?
In my tutorial there is a part where i explained how to use it :)
Try that one first ;)

1st of all sorry for double posting again

Ok, i re-did ALL the process of making a new map and got the same problem again ...theres nomap ingame so ill just list everything i did

with talis:
create wdt, check 9 arrays, save as same name .wdt
create adt, save as (same name_01_01.adt)

adt-adder
browse get the adt, put the same name of the instance name in the 1st adt and wdt
generate
offset fix the generated (the 01_01.adt used was NOT in the same folder this time but i tried to offsetfix the 01_01.adt also)

with taliis again:
edit map.dbc to add my entry (same name of all the files again)

mpq creator:
made "patch-4.MPQ" (with caps MPQ) folder worldmapsnewmap (all files including .wdt and inclueding _01_01.adt)

made patch-enGB-4.MPQ (caps MPQ) folder DBFilesclientmaps.dbc

added the map.dbc to my serverdatadbc
added patch-4.MPQ to wowfolderDATA
added patch-enGB-4.MPQ to wowfolderDATAenGB

started Noggit ....map was there (empty adt with grass everywhere)

start wow...teleport at server coords ... BOOM ...nothing there.

if i .gps ingame i see "map is NewWorld" the XYZ are okay ...but no floor and nothing else i just see the sky everywhere

so tell me ...after doing those steps 4x and been able to only make 1 map ...what is my problem? i really dont get it.

thanks

Well if it is there with noggit there are 2 things that could happen to you:
-Wrong coordinates (don't use the client coords!)
-You have another patch in your data folder with anthother empty? wdt that overwrites the new one

So...^^

Nuh well i can remember that this happened to me too ;)
Well when you are modelediting you have to test many things and somehow it always works.
Just make sure to test EVERYTHING.

Sometimes only the small faults are fucking things up ;)
