Sonny, I Watched the Vault Bein' Built!
As part of the Graphics Upgrade Patch (GUP) it looks like we will need to rebuild all of the maps so that they will use the new art files.
From what I can tell the *.map files contain a cached copy of the proto file within the map, so if you edit the proto file you need to refresh the map some how to use the new proto instead of the cached version.
I figure this process should work (enable the txt maps as foudn in the 'merge maps' tutorial http://www.coljack.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/fallout/)
1) Open Map and press 'Alt P' to save as a txt map
2) Use the 'Rebuild all maps' from the menu
3) Repeat for every map...
This saves a new version of the map from the txt file.
So I have a couple of questions reguarding this.
1) Is there a way to convert all the maps to txt format in one go?
2) Does this actaully remove the cached proto information?
Can one of the mappers out there help with this one please.
