I kept reading to download this lvltoolkit and I did and I can't get it to work it says I have to edit the programs ini but it didn't come with one wtf how am I soposed to run it and It don't even tell me how to use it besides dragging the lvl into the program and it always gives my a line 24 error. I know it's annoying but I need a step by step click by click tuturial on how to use it. Could you please write me one because I have no ideal what to do at all. And the ini's I have no ideal if I'm soposed to write them myself using notepad or if there soposed to come with the app and if they are then I didn't get them and even if I did I have no ideal what to do with them can you please help

P.s I manually renamed them I'm taking that's the wrong way

P.S I hate dos programs so much dos is dead somebody shoot and kill the ediot that wrote that program hahahahah.

Wow, you must be retarded.

The lvztoolkit does not require you to modify its own INI. You make an INI for every LVZ that you want. Example.ini is just that, an example of an LVZ INI along with instructions on how to make your own.

Also, these programs are not DOS, they're just runnning in a command prompt instead of a GUI.

An IQ of 128? That's pretty low my son.

If you had the IQ of 128 you wouldn't be bitching that much in your posts, or are you just young?

I was saying that because of your "P.S I hate dos programs so much dos is dead somebody shoot and kill the ediot that wrote that program hahahahah.", because you flamed something while you obviously had no idea what you were talking about.

I'll "fuck myself bitch" if you tell me how.

Haha, come back when you make sense.

Command Prompt is just a windows based dos pretty much the same thing.

Another CTF, hmm I wont bother you but there are too many CTF about...

shipset = EASY

alright so you say that you have a file that has all the ships 1-8 with the ones you have added?

if so then do this

go to lvlz toolkit, right click > New Document (notepad)

Type:

Outfile:(name of the lvz >choose watever !! INCLUDE .LVZ)
<<make sure this space is here>
File:ships.bm2(bmp)

then hit save as, (same name as ur lvz, cept .INI)

then make sure your picture is in the lvlz toolkit, hit buildlevel.exe (NOT THE .37!)

then it should make your lvz. run debuild to make sure that there are no errors
----

next, follow the rest of my directions from my earlier post. ALSO, the file needs to be a bmp or bm2, so make sure you convert your file to that if it isn't one already (just renamming.. laff)

<<<EDIT>>> http://forums.minegoboom.com/viewtopic.php?t=2283 This helps with SOME LVZs

ok I am in your zone right now/or was (Tester123) and the ships look nice, but your map and settings need total workage!

Bots aren't that hard to make, unless you need a new plugin, heh talk to someone else but me cause I don't know/have the program to make plugins

1) I helped you.

2) You still don't know what you're talking about. Win32 Command Prompt is not in any way "pretty much the same thing" as DOS.

HAHAHAHAH your right I just like to think of them that way because it looks so much like it and the old windows had that dos prompt and it screws with my head alot your help is very much appreciated I'm not sure what I am going to need just yet I just ripped alot of graphics from the game and will be turning them into tileset's Tomorrow. I will after my first arena add another server with the Rogue Trader Map and I am wanting to turn the balls into the resources and I think I will need Plugin's for the control over the soccer balls to allow them to be tooken to a goal and when entering that goal the person looses the ball and recieve's the point. But the problem is that I was testing the balls and I put 20 and I got disconnected evertime the balls would spawn and I will need more then 20 balls is there anyway I can add more then that??? like maybe 40 ???? And I also was wondering if I could make a safezone the goal that way they can't be attacked when in safe zones and it will also be were they go to score. I was going to make that one first but I am going to make Chaos Zone because that's the most popular map on that game right now so I figure it would help me get up off my feet after I get it running. Chaos zone will consist of kill to win and capture and hold a flag for points (There are like 4 goals). Yea my map needs alot of work hahahahahahah. And is there anyway I can add more then 8 ships??????? Because I want to have all the ships on there but if not then that's still kool.

I think the max is around 8/9 balls. You cannot have more than 8 ships.
