You can Add/Temp spawners server side. But are you trying to make a vehicle bot spawner or just a normal (enterable) vehicle spawner?

You can use scripts to drop a vehicle at a location after poking a button and paying some money.

Follow reborns server side weapon spawn tutorial but use a vehc preset instead of a weapon and it should work perfectly.

Ya, you can edit an existing vehicle and give it Transitions for entering/exiting and then Add/Temp a spawner in Spawner folder and set it up there and it should work.

Why would you edit the transitions...?

WRONG! DO NOT PUT THE LDD in the data folder!

Take the map you are editing, open it in xcc mixer, extract the original .ldd and back it up somewhere. Then delete it out of the archive. Then, take your new ldd that you just created and drag/drop it into the xcc window. It will build the new .mix for you. Simply load up the server and go.

nope. Get xcc from renhelp.

I think reborn included this whole step in one of his videos. But if you can't figure it out just ask and i'll explain in better detail.

You can still do the .ldd way, I've done it before. You just have to setup the spawner correctly. By the sounds of it, you didn't take your time on checking through the settings Razz

And why edit transitions, because some don't have transitions, depends upon what you want to use, etc.

I'm pretty sure renhelp has the newer release so its actualy a package of xcc tools. You want to open up 'xcc mixer'. Then go file -> open -> browse to the map you are using.. for for instance if i'm making a server side mod for under i would browse to C&C_under.mix. Then click open.

Now, in the left column you will see a whole crap load of resources pertaining to that map. since i'm using under i would look for c&C_under.ldd. Right click on that and extract it to somewhere safe. Then click on it and delete it. This might take a bit. Let it do it's thing. now take the ldd you made in LE, name it exactly like the one you took out. Drag and drop it into the left column of xcc. It may take a while again because it is rebuilding the .mix . When it is finished its thing just close it out and load the map like usual.

Hmm.. then you def did something wrong in LE. There are plenty of people here better in LE than me, so i would suggest waiting for them to shoot by this thread.

You didn't Add/Temp the vehicle did you?

EDIT: Looks like Spawner is set right. However, it's been known in the past that if you exclude the word Spawner in the Spawner folder it'll crash. So try naming it to GDI_Medium_Tank_Player_Spawner

Also, where did you Add item? Spawner folder or under another branch?

Ah, there's the problem. Delete your added preset and make a new one by selecting the Spawner folder and clicking Add and then set it up there. Smile

The correct med tank preset is CnC_GDI_Medium_Tank, not GDI_Medium_Tank_Player.
