Features...

I'm having trouble getting my features to show up in-game. It's odd, because I've gotten it to work months ago, and I remember running into this problem, but I don't remember what I did...

Essentially, they don't show up when the map loads ingame. No errors or anything. I *know* I've got everything in place...

I've got the fs.txt with the features in a list (there's only one feature anyway)... I'm using red 255 in the featuremap (and trees/grass show up fine)... it's an S3O model, I've double-checked that all the names are right, that the texture is included, that the s3o is included. I've got the features\All Worlds folders, unittextures, objects3d... wtf am I missing?

I apparently got it to work by putting the feature files in my mod files...

Which makes no sense. I certainly don't have Lathan's industrial complex features in my mod file, but they show up fine on his maps... why?

Because they are in his map.

spikedhelmet, unlike TA maps spring does not have a large feature file(THANK GOD) so what features the map uses are packaged within the map it's self

Excactly what smoth and zwzsg said. Open up a map with custom features and take a look at the file structure and you'll get a pretty good idea of what to do.

That's a unitsync issue, though aflobby could probably avoid it by running unitsync in another thread.

Oh, yeah, i fixed the problem about 30 seconds after making the second post. I was putting my features/objects3d/etc folders inside the map folder, as opposed to "outside" of it.

Sorry for the bother. I probably should've come back to say I got it fixed...
