Hey Triggerhappy, Welcome to the wonderful world of Dediting A tutorial/help file also came with the NOLF2 tools, so it is definitely worth a look as well. These sites also have some great tutorials: http://www.spawnsite.net/ http://www.spydave.net/ http://www.nicepurchase.com/nolf/dedit.htm Here is a link from BahamutZero who wrote a nice terrain tutorial. It will apply to your question because it will show you how to create a single sided brush made up of right angle triangles. In turn you can then manipulate the vertices to create your curved path http://www.unityhq.net/forums//forums/inde...p?showtopic=102 Good luck JLAR

Hey TG*Zymon, I'm glad you got it working & thanks for playing! Yes indeed, the Thief modding community is still going strong! Canada, you rock man! JLAR

Thanks Eliteone! That is really strange? Do you see my modified interface when you load up the game? (the red screen with the soviet soldier? Double check my readme file, maybe there is something you missed. I also just realized that when my mod is enabled, you can simply start a new game without having to go into the chapterlist. Launch Nolf2 / Singleplayer / new game / choose difficulty I can't believe i missed this?! JLAR

Hey TG* Zymon, (nice Thief Avatar, i miss that game) Did you enable my mod through the NOLF2 startup launcher? When you first launch Nolf2, select the custom tab, you will see my mod listing "BRTD". Make sure this is checked. Now launch Nolf2, go into singleplayer / chapterlist my mod will be the only one on the list. JLAR

To be honost , i never really got into multiplayer gaming (mostly online Co-op with a buddy). I'm not even sure what would make a good Doomsday map thanx for the kudos! JLAR

hey john, I am actually looking into this. My GrowOp level was having some transition issues (it's made of 3 maps), when you finish the first map, it wont transition to the next. If i do manage to get it working , you will probably still have to play each level, one rez at a time. There would be some major textures / attributes/ conflicts/ if both levels were in one rez. I'll keep you posted...... JLAR

Thanx people for giving my level a go! The Vodka bottle is the molotov cocktail weapon item. I'm not sure what else you would like a molotov cocktail to do? Thanx for your extremely generous compliment! There are small cutscenes at the start & end of my level. JLAR

It's that time again! I'm pleased as punch to announce that my new SP Level "Better Red Than Dead" is ready to download. You can check out some screenshots @: http://ca.geocities.com/jlar_mods@rogers.com/nolf2brtd.html You can download the file here: http://hosted.filefront.com/JohnnyLaRue/ Have fun & let me know what you thought of it! From README BETTER RED THAN DEAD : Nolf 2 SP Level by Johnny LaRue (March/07) ===================================================== Version1.0 http://ca.geocities.com/jlar_mods@rogers.com/nolf2brtd.html HomePage: http://ca.geocities.com/jlar_mods@rogers.com/index.html Cate is imprisoned in a Soviet outpost & must escape. This mission has more of a "hard edge" to it as Cate is a little bloodied up & there isn't as much gadget play compared to my previous level. Includes increased blood spray/splatter, custom skins, custom textures, modified sniper rifle, molotov cocktails, cinematics & a walkthru. INSTALLATION: ============= Extract the Better Red Than Dead.rar file you should get a BRTD folder, put this folder into your NOLF2 \ Custom \ Mods directory (if you dont have a custom/mods directory you may have to create them). e.g. NOLF2 \ Custom \ Mods \ BRTD \ BRTD.rez now fire up the NOLF 2 Launcher, & hit the custom tab & there should be a listing for "BRTD". Check the BRTD slot & then run the game. Go into singleplayer, then chapter list, & my mod will be the only mission on the list, select it & play! (**i made this mod with nolf2 v1.3) If you have not finished NOLF2, the chapter list option will not show up in the Singleplayer interface. Just doubleclick on the included ChapterListFix.reg file & select "yes" when prompted. (thanx to Alexa & Discomime) **Note** do not skip the starting intro cinematic (it's not that long ayways), if you try to skip it, it will only stop the camera & the cinematic won't run the way it's supposed too. Sorry about that, Nolf2 cinematics are a *****. Build Time: 10 months on & off SPECIAL THANX ============== -Monolith for making such a great game -Spawnsite.net, Sparedlife.com, Spydave.net, The site that shall not be named.com, Coty's site, Wiky's Site & Sovmusic.ru -Thanx to Spawn & Coty for helping me with various aspects of this mod, thanx to Spydave for his cinematic help, thanx to SparedLife for letting me use his skins (again) & for his chapterlist idea & thanx to Old Salt for beta testing the original BRTD & giving me some ideas on how to improve & expand it. -My beta testers CREDITS ======= -Green soviet camo skin by: SparedLife -SniperRifle skin from Mob Enforcer -Molotov Cocktail model from Mob Enforcer, skin by JLAR -Used the Bar prefab from Nolf2, reskinned by JLAR BUGS ==== The intro cinematic sometimes has sound distortions, this is because nolf2 doesn't like playerlure's, soundfx & camera objects all at once!? When Cate holds the Molotov Cocktail, her winter cuff isnt on the model, forgive my dismal modeling skills. ENJOY! JLAR

Thanks for all of your compliments folks! Like I told Alexa a couple posts above, i have another SP map in the making so stay tuned! JLAR

Discomime, my apolgies man, I assumed that any sort of save would enable the chapterlist but I was mistaken. I wonder if anyone else had this problem? Thanx Alexa for giving Discomime the heads up. I will update my readme & include a .reg file. The idea for Northern Michigan was just to add to the "tongue in cheek" theme of my map. I didnt want to specify what town/city incase someone was from there. I have done some kayaking up there off of Lake Huron & its actually quite scenic. Alexa, i am glad you enjoyed the map, If you had a chance to browse my webpage there was another sp level I was working on but I shelved it several months ago. It is called "Better Red Than Dead". I plan on revamping/improving it in the next month. The level construction itself is pretty much complete, I just have to clean up some of my geometry & tweak the AI & dynamic lights. JLAR

Hey Belladonna Ooops! Sorry about that. The link to get the screenshots is: http://ca.geocities.com/jlar_mods@rogers.com/nolf2go.html Now that you mention it, I did brainstorm about making a "Tron themed" Nolf2 Map a while back. I was going to make something along the lines that half of the map is spent in the real world & then you enter some H.A.R.M Portal that sends you into the tron digitized environment. It would involve some major importing of textures/sounds & I would attempt to have the Tron first person look in the digitized world as opposed to still having Cate's default FPS arms/guns. Needles to say it would be one hell of an undertaking! I see you changed your avatar. That lauren bacall avatar you used to have was a real treat, she was a real fox back then. Her & Bogey were quite the couple. I hope you enjoy the map, JLAR

hey ƒƒ5•ßahamutZero, i gave it a shot but i couldnt get it to work. in Nolf2 when you place a weapon item in a level , you are able to pick it up (using the action key) , but for some reason in Tron , even after pressing the action key the disc goes into your inventory but the disc model stays in the game world. i keep hitting brick walls with tron dedit but maybe its source still has enough differences than NOLF2. im gonna give LDSO's site a shot http://www.livingdead.g2gm.net/ thanx for the reply JLAR [
