Other than that I do believe that anything like this goes in Modding Discussion.

Well, I was gonna do one for mods as well.

Stickied, this makes life easier for mods who have to move and merge topics.
We can have questions for each section involving mods, Scenes is very popular for that right now.

Parts of Acrid Canyon do that to me...
Uh... Purple? Grif?

Are you sure you've set the "material" for that area to be concrete?
Also, make sure gravity isn't set too high. If it is, things will probably sink through like a knife through hot, buttery toast.

I may set out on making a map soon. But how do you know where things(objects) will be placed... just play around with contuers and stuff?

Does the MAT file use the color of concrete used in the BrainVaultMAT images?

That was a feature, not a flaw, actually. Purple's idea, some platforms are booby-trapped. Unless your problem is not with the platforms?

Contours, so long as they are the size of the map, which they have to be, are automatically placed.
MAT based objects are placed in an aspect of Scene.ini coding:
Code:
AddTerrainObject = TerrainObject
   InstanceName = Rocket Silo
   // Foreground color bitmap
   FGColorFile = ContentFile
      Path = Base.rte/Scene/Objects/RocketSiloFG.bmp
   // Material bitmap
   MaterialFile = ContentFile
      Path = Base.rte/Scene/Objects/RocketSiloMat.bmp
   // Background color bitmap
   BGColorFile = ContentFile
      Path = Base.rte/Scene/Objects/RocketSiloBG.bmp
      PlaceTerrainObject = TerrainObject
         CopyOf = Rocket Silo
         Location = Vector
            X = 1357   <-- THIS
            Y = 693 <-- THIS


And actors are placed based on another part of scene coding:

Code:
PlaceMovableObject = Actor
      CopyOf = Mother Brain
      Position = Vector
         X = 1920 <-- THIS
         Y = 835 <-- THIS
      Team = 0


I now declare myself Master of Scenes.

Alright, good, then. The platforms are made like that.

Because contours can't have nagative space. I'd recommend just making the area above the, I assume, brainvault solid concrete, to simplify things.
