Import Sauerbrauten Maps into PAS?

L337Justin · Post by **L337Justin** » October 7th, 2010, 7:18 pm

Is this at all possible? I tried just dragging and dropping, and the map preview shows up in-game but when I load the map it just shows a blank map.

The maps are both created in the same engine, and I have all of the Sauerbrauten textures already imported into PAS, why is it that these maps do not show up? Is there a way to do this? I created a map in Sauerbrauten and want to create an RPG using this map, is this possible?

Thanks, Justin.

Yea its possible - and its very simple simply use the /importcube yourmapname command, as long as the file is found in the packages/cube folder.

remember to use /clearents light after you do this, as the lights that are imported from the old map are useless in sandbox

also i dont think water will import - you will have to add it yourself

hope i helped,
Owen.

oh and curves can be a bit screwed too. Basically its pretty damn close, but not perfect in other things too

type /exportocta (name) and now you can export PAS maps in to Sauerbraten

I'm curious here... Has the import ability been improved since this thread was started? What is the difference between Cube 2 curves and Sandbox curves, also what's the difference in water? Just curious about this...

Also the /importcube command seems to be broken. Could we get an update here if there is a new command?

Thanks!

cube compatibility was removed a long time ago.
Cube is old, deprecated, and no one uses it anymore.

To import maps from cube 2, just copy them into your maps folder, ie packages/base
The texture list will likely be completely messed up though.

If you really want to import Cube 1 maps, you can import them in Cube 2 with this command, save and load the new map in PAS.
