Editing exisiting pac map

[nethkhar]

Hi all,

I've been playing the pac maps for a whiile now, and I'm trying to complete #2887 Hell rocks - the city attacks.  Even thought it's really laggy, I want to complete it but find it impossible. So I want to edit it.

I've downloaded the PAC template and followed the instructions to edit an existing map but those instructions are for changing an existing non pac map to a pac map.

I have tried just loading the map file from the editor but it shows a totally different map. I'm clearly doing something wrong.  Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to get an existing pac map to even load into the editor.



EDIT:  Found what I needed,  http://knucklecracker.com/wiki/doku.php?id=crpl:examine_map_resources in case anyone else needs it.

After you have it successfully in editor you have to add CRPL core with Temp.crpl in it and save and load game. It will be normal map after it.

Thanks for the help, I managed to edit the map slighty and finished the map. However, it's a shallow victory since I feel like a bit of a cheat. I really need to get better at this game. Thanks again for the help. ;D
