Ahh yes I forgot to add the get started part in the op. I added to original post now to be more specific. Yeah hopefully if anyone needs help the ppl here we can try to help some. Yeah google analytics xD Turok user map, Turok mapping guides, help with Turok mapping, Turok editor, black screen test play lol. Hey I would also like to note that you can simply type "Developer 1" in the console while the game is launched.

Well thanks but it's like I always will say it is the members who make the forum, glad you enjoyed Jungle Falls. Hope to see more maps for Turok.

Hi, I am new to this forum and looking for mapping brethren (help) as well. I was very happy to find the "Jungle_Falls" level and enjoyed that a lot. There is a basic question that I saw here which will help a lot of nubs, because I couldn't find the answer when it happened to me.

When I fired up the editor the first time, I loaded up the "tutoriallevel.map" which is meant to be used in connection with "Turok_Editor_Guide.pdf". These are both found in your (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Turok-Dinosaur Hunter) game folder. The maps are in the 'tutorial' folder. So when I hit the > (play) button in the editor, the game engine would start up but I only got a black screen and no way to exit the game except cntrl-alt-delete.

So the problem is basic. In the game folder there are .configuration files (.cfg) which can be edited with notepad. You must open the one named config.cfg and add a line of text to it to allow the developer_maps to run. The .cfg files are scripts and the format that you use will become commands in the game engine so there are rules to follow when editing config files. Google '.cfg files' if that is giving you a problem.

So -- add this line to your config.cfg - seta developer "1" - then save the config and close it. Now the game engine will now recognize your .map files and no more black screen.

Hey My First Post! WhoooYaaa  ;D

For Google Sake I'm adding Turok Editor Black Screen here so maybe others will find this post too. Thanks Duke64, for this nice place to share stuff like this.

I understand the editor at some extend. Can you tell me how to activate the sky and sun please

Sure that is connected with sector mode. Cntrl+ left click on your sector to select it. Then right click the selected sector and go to properties. Go to the settings tab.

You must have the fog color as black if you see a black sky with no sun. Sky height is how close the sun looks I believe.

So the test map now plays when you hit test?

And that sounds like you need some help with sector mode. I plan to go over it soon I have started but sector mode can get pretty complex but for normal its not as complicated as it seem.

I will say something that may help for the moment. To work in sector mode make sure you are in sector mode and if you right click you will place a vertice. Which is the purple square hehe. You need to connect the sectors to your purple squares simply said.

To use any of the sector modes you must first cntrl+left click a sector so you have a sector selected first.

If a mesh doesnt highlight I know 2 things I would try:

1. Try to select everywhere around it some models have strange hitboxes because of the odd shapes of all of them.

2. I would try to see if its an actor so I would switch to actor mode and then try to select it
