Getting Started Prefabbing - Complete (POI Creation)

[SlicksGirl 9]

Is the an alpha 18 version of the poi builder yet? or are we still waiting on that?

[LewZephyr 14]

Is there an updated guide for this process, or is this process still basically the same?

I tried looking up the bad company manager but the git hub says it hasn't been updated in 2 years.

So wondering if my present dedicated server (Windows 10, with Alloc's fixes and Server Tools installed) will work with the processes.

 

Thanks.

Honestly it's largely different now and this really should get an update.  Do some searching on YouTube for creating POI's and such.  There's some good videos out there and a whole tutorial.  Also look up Pille's editor as he's got a great tool for creating and editing POI's.

Here's a YouTube series (A18 mostly) that will help learn the basics of using the in-game prefab editor.

Doesn't it work like that?

 

1- Press "z" on the object.
2- Shift + g (to select the quest marker).
3- Press "j" to delete

Look at marker > hold down shift > LMB to remove.

 

This works for any block.  RMB will replace it with the block you have actively selected in your toobar.

Is there no way to add the sleeper volumes in the in-game editor? Couldn't find anything in this thread about that, and I will be damned if I can figure it out myself.

Yes there is.  See video link below.  I recommend watching this guys entire series.  Will help you get started making prefabs within the editor. 😁

Thanks, @Laz Man. I knew these existed and I am such a scatterbrain I forgot about them . . . even watched a few of them before

Not sure if this is the right thread to ask, but couldn't find a better one...

 

Is there any kind of tutorial about creating new trader POIs?

 

There are a lot of things that aren't immediately obvious, like what values you should have in the IndexBlockOffsets values in the POI's XML file.
