Try removing the "impactfx" line from your zone source file ( .csv ) and see if the problem with the FX goes away.

This seems like a bug with the launcher placing this line in there automatically, when it shouldn't.

That means you have too much collision. Try making some of your geo/terrain/brushwork non-colliding , or remove some collmaps from models that are not in the playable area.

From testing all mp/vehicles using zone I found all to be only drivable with collision.

veh_panzer and veh_t34 are in the best condition

Veh_panzer-
crosshair & aim
shooting fx + sound
ability to exit vehicle
switch seats
use both mg's
missing: tank movement sound & fx, coxial mg sound

Veh_t34
crosshair & aim
shooting fx + sound
ability to exit vehicle
switch seats and use mg
missing: tank movement sound & fx
not working: coxial mg

zone CSV
include,mp_vehicles_fx
include,vehicles_drivable_mp

sound,vehicles,veh_mp,all_mp
sound,mp_ravine_v1,mp_ravine_v1,all_mp

sound,common,mp_ravine_v1,all_mp

Bare with me, im about to release a map example with all you need (and tutorial)

You need to make clientscripts for your map in order to hear the sounds & see the FX.

Take a look at the roundhouse clientscripts , you should just be able to copy & rename them for the most part. If you have any problems figuring it out from there, let me know and I can give you more advice.

Oh, and yea...it looks like Zeroy has got something together to help you folks out as well, he looks to have solved the vehicle issues.

Well since dleteing the impactfx from csv ive tried the panzer4 and it is working,,sounds work also..Only thing i have not tried on it is the coaxial mg..

Ive now also tested the t34 which also works(sounds included etc)..All are destructible...In the test map i have created i have not even created any clientscripts and the sounds work..
In my csv i have these lines

rawfile,maps/mp/mp_vehicle.gsc
rawfile,vehicles/panzer4_mp
rawfile,vehicles/t34_mp



include,mp_vehicles_fx
include,vehicles_drivable_mp

sound,vehicles,veh_mp,all_mp

ERROR: physics constraints 't34_break_front' not found

i got this error when adding a tank also why dose my map crash when i add tanks to my map

For the tanks, solution is HERE

Rasta reported script_structs not playing sounds:

Mine work with:

Line in my sound alias (calling a small fire effect)

raw/soundaliases/mymapname.csv:

small_02,,SFX\Destruction\fires\small\small_02.wav,,1,1,50,500,,,,,ambience,,curve2,,,,,1,1,,3d,,,looping,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,5,10,0.15,0.85,,

Calling my soundalias (mymapname.csv) from my zone source:

sound,mymapname,mymapname,all_sp

Radiant setup:: (small_02 is the name used inthe soundalias)

script_sound small_02
script_looping 1
script_label looper
targetname looper_loop
classname script_struct

ERRORS:

30cal sounds don't work in SP, might try extracting the MP sounds

Dogs for SP work (I have a tutorial here somewhere) but I had to use scripts which had comments in them like "TEST until dogs are fixed" or something along those lines, does that mean I am still using unfinished code? or is it ok? (I can find the exact scripts if you like)

FPS seems unstable even with portals and proper detailing/structural defining of brushes.

Zombie Radio: The radio (through clientscripts) appears not to work for anyone other than the host. (no one else can hear it, my other script_stuct and triggered room sounds are fine though)

Levels darken over a period of time (after using the flamethrower

When not using and even when using a vision file on zombie maps after doing r_fastrestart a different vision file is implied (maybe a zombie mode specific one?)

Bipod usage is null (or sometimes the "press F to mount" is missing when the bipod mount texture intersects a clip texture.

hellhound and German shepherd black models are not used/can't be used (I created a custom character alias and still the game would not use those models)

Action nodes: defining a start and end with no_stand (or any combination) will not work in zombie mode, they will always walk around.

There's no mention of how to get bipods to work in the prone position.

Updating worldspawn settings sometimes does not work (compile show's no change in the lighting for numerous tries with no errors in the compile log)

One last thing, no big deal really as we can get it through other means, missingassets.csv, was a great tool in the days of cod4!
