precache monsters

[shy sonnet]

Hi I was just wondering if there's a way to precache or spawn enemies into the sp portal campaign, I miss the old version of sven coop with tor and gonomes in the campaign, can't work out how to add the 9 custom precache models etc

If you're editing the maps to put those NPCs in you don't need to precache them yourself. The game will do that for you.

Thank you, im having a hard time decompiling the maps unfortunately, I've tried many different decompilers

You will not have good looking brush work when decompiling goldsrc maps. Decompiles should only be used as refence.

If you just want to add NPCs to a map you should use BSPGuy or NewBSPGuy.

@trim temple thank you ,im not quite sure how to run it as I can't find an executable file or a tutorial unfortunately, any tips would be grateful

I think you can drag a BSP onto it.

It's available to download from the authors' Githubs here:

Thank you this has been very helpful and I'm able to open maps and add monsters. The only trouble is when I save the map and then add it to sven coop, I play the map and it still has the original monsters

Are you saving the BSP to the right place?

If you're running a multi-player game it needs to be in the server's map files.
