Once that chunk is added into the BSP, you can then set the radius in the AI Zones.

Hi, I've gone through this tutorial twice now, following every step exactly. However, both times when I've finished and gone to load up the map, the Xbox freezes as soon as the timer switches to "Waiting for everyone to load the map."

Do you have any suggestions or know where I went wrong?

That is because of an improper rebuild. H2Core is a buggy application, and really only works if your PC can handle it. You can try it again and hope for the best, or try a different computer.

My PC can't handle H2Core anymore, so, sorry if my help isn't enough.

It doesn't matter. The map should've loaded whether or not Yelo was running.

OK thanks. I guess I'll move the tags over to my XP system and try to rebuild them there.

Can you write down the steps for "BSP"(which is?), and for some reason when I try to open up any map on Entity it says something about a mainmenu error, but it will however allow me to open the mainmenu.map

Will this work on the 360? Because I don't think the 360 can run trainers.

Re: .:: Complete AI in MP Tutorial::.

Ok, this is probably a really simple and stupid mistake. I have done the ai tutorial 3 times and everything goes fine until I go to upon up the map in entity (1.3.9) which cannot find the mainmenu.map (clean copy's of mainmenu, shared, and sp shared are in the same file as map). I also get the error: "object reference not set to an instance of an object". Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When using Entity 1.3.9, the shared maps must be set, and don't need to be included in the same folder.

Did you, by any chance, use the Entity 1.3.9 in Pro Map Tools? I found that that application already had shared maps set, when the chances of multiple computers having the same folder directory are extremely unlikely.

Re: .:: Complete AI in MP Tutorial::.

Thank you for responding.

I downloaded entity 1.3.9 from shadows of death from halomods, so no. Could you you tell me where to find the other download for entity, or explain a little more on what to do with map paths.

Re: .:: Complete AI in MP Tutorial::.

When you open a map for the first time, it should prompt you with a form asking for the shared maps (bitmaps.map is for Halo 1, and is optional). Simply fill it out. If you're still having problems, I could RAR it and reupload it.

Re: .:: Complete AI in MP Tutorial::.

Ya, I know what you mean. When I am using 1.6 I get the find mainmenu and so on. In 1.3.9 I have never seen that box at all. I have also unrared 1.3.9 multiple times. If it's not too much trouble would you mind uploading it for me?

Re: .:: Complete AI in MP Tutorial::.

To those who want it: Entity 1.3.9.

And to those who are still having problems, are you running Yelo with the "Disable Auto-update" and "AI in MP" options on? Also, is the "MP Respawn" bitmask checked in the AI Squads chunk?
