create location

[dctrader]

Hi,

Is there any guide in English for us to create new location of fallout 2238 online?

I modified the files:

GenerateWorld.cfg
Locations.cfg
Maps.cfg

to add my location and map, no error got during the server boot
but no location found on desired coordinates. Any idea?

Locations are made on server side, not client side.

On Fallout 2238 online? As in this server? You can't just create a map and put it on this server. You'd have to use your own SDK server.

Thank you for quick response. I did download the SDK and setup the server on my box.
But it seems my modifications were not applied to the server, since I did not find the
location I created when I launched a client and searched the location in the global map.

To make it clearer, I did following:

1. download SDK
2. create a map with mapper tool
3. modify the three configure files of the server side (GenerateWorld.cfg, Locations.cfg, Maps.cfg)

map name is: mymap.map

GenerateWorld.cfg:
@ 265   475   315 # My location

Locations.cfg:
[Area 265]
name=My location
size=6
map_0=mymap

Maps.cfg:
[Map 407] # My location
map_name=mymap

4. launch server (a binary version map was automatically generated)
5. launch client (search the location in the global map, but fail)

I did not add any scripts since this is a test map at this stage.
But it seems my understanding of adding map to SDK (server)
is incorrect. Please let me know where the misunderstand is,
thank you.

Yes, I asked on IRC and resolved thank you.

I did not delete the world save cache files, after I did it and I see my ugly test shack on the global map. Cheers!
