I have a few questions about the new editor (which is ten times more easier to use than the old tool, praise God).
1) I was reading in the "read me" section of the editor that the editor works on a newfangled global file system, meaning that unlike CE, all your files don't have to be in the same spot. Is there an extent to this? Do I still have the make a insert map name here folder and put all my stuff in? If I do, what do I have to put in that folder?
2) Does water behave the same way as it did in Halo CE? (ie, the !$ script in max)
3) Is there a video/text tutorial about how to use Sapien properly? I can use it, but only limitedly.
4) How do I make waterfalls and flowing water in a map? I am currently working on a project that involves two waterfalls and running water, but I havet he slightest idea how to do either.
5) Do you still need to link water to an object in max, if so, do I just create a random box outside of my map and link it like I saw on a Guru's tutorial?
Any help in these areas would be MUCH appreciated. This will be my first map I release to the public, and I want it to be good. I won't be replying to this thread for a while because I'm going on a family vacation until next week. Any reply would be very helpful.
