I would like to point out something important for any of you interested in this beautiful piece of program. You absolutely MUST acquire version 1.1

Version 1.2 doesn't make a Temp directory after a render, so any chance of exporting your rendered textures is nil. Soooooo... get 1.1

Oh and i would just like to point out. This program is FUCKING AWESOME! And a Sticky for this thread is a must.

can't make road intersections without some sort of weird workaround so I gave up on wiced. I am probably going with l3dt. probably use that or the editor that new guy was making if I can get the hang of his hotkey setup.

Link to 1.0.0.0 to 1.1.0.0 updater:
http://spring.jobjol.nl/show_file.php?id=1637

With version 1.2, textures are still acquirable by looking for the ProcTex**.dds files in the map directory. The massive drawback of this is that these are 1k*1k splits of the texture. So you have to tile them manually, which is quite a task on anything larger than 4*4.
Oddly, these texture splits coincide with what mothers and users mapconv splits into when compilation is done. I havent found a way to use this to our advantage yet though.

Road intersections are only possible through the workaround posted previously in this thread ( http://wiki.massgate.net/Road_intersect ... orkaround) )

Some additional info that I want to put out here:

While doing some other renders, the program stopped making a "temp" folder and wouldn't create a "blendedmap.tga"

Fortunately there is an easy fix. To get that folder back, simply make a new one called "temp" and WICEd will find it. From there you should get your "blendedmap.tga" again.

i have compared ultra high of 1.2 to high of 1.1 and they are exactly the same in my instance, so screw you 1.2

I can do the same thing with Sandbox 2 for Crysis with yet another ton of features.

Woah u can??? man... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: is it the same as the tutorial above or is it diff steps to export the map cus when u save the map it comes out as a .cry file not a .stz file.

This is actually possible? Question mark spam! Random unrelated emoticon random unrelated emoticon random unrelated emoticon!

Is the process of doing so the same as that outlined above? Or is it different? I ask this because when I use the Crysis map editor to export a Crysis map file, it results in a Crysis map! This seems unusual to me.

If you have free time on your hands, could you please write a guide outlinig how to make spring engine maps with the Crysis map editor? Random emoticon spam.
Fixed. Again, proper grammar is good for you. Also, lay off on the smileys.

As to your question, I haven't personally tried it, but it probably is possible. read the map development sections on this site (under the "development" tab, to get a better feel for what it takes to make a map.

350 is right IIRC. You will need the game as well.

Nope. If the main selling points of your PC are win7 and 2gb ram, then its most likely not enough. The editor needs a decent GPU.
