How do I use my world?

Hi, I'm new here, but I followed the tutorials in the sticky. SO now I have a map that I created with L3DT that has been put into Visitor 3 and saved as a .wrp that was then turned into a pbo.

So my question is how can I get this map to be usable? My ultimate goal is so I can open the mission editor, load my map and throw some targets and boxes onto it. Basically it will be my own shooting range.

Right now when I go into Single Player -> Editor I have only the standard maps I can work with like Utes and Proving Grounds. What I need is for my map to show up there so I can edit it and save it as a mission for myself to play whenever I want some shooting practice.

Is this even possible? If so how can I do this? Thank in advance.

For that you need to create your own config.cpp file

It should be good enough to copy one of one existing island and edit it accordingly

For example

1st: go to the utes.pbo

2nd: unpbo it

3rd: Use unrap to transform the file config.bin into a new file called config.cpp

4th: copy it inside your p:\yournametag\yourislandfolder

5th: Open the config cpp with a text editor and edit it.

It is a little bit more complicated than that because you must know what to add/change/erase in the config file, but that's the general idea

To help you a little bit, this is utes.cpp file with all references to the armory and locations removed

You will have to add your own surfaces classes in the class surface and define new clutter in the class clutter section.

You also have to define you island in the class worlds,etc...

Hope it helps
