im not sure what your asking, but if your trying to load a texture, you mispelled rogue.

Code: Select all

material
  name bolt
  addtexture blue_bolt
end

sphere
  position 0 0 5
  size 0.5 0.5 0.5
  matref bolt
  texsize 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0
end

is not correct for a bolt

it's not addtexture, but texture! Also, add .png for unknown reasons. Corrected: (I think)

Code: Select all

material
  name bolt
  texture blue_bolt.png
end

sphere
  position 0 0 5
  size 0.5 0.5 0.5
  matref bolt
  texsize 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0
end

And I don't think you do need .png...?

texture never works for me so i always use addtexture just so it doesnt turn out any errors

Maybe what I said before was completely wrong. Oh well.<hr>
It is going to be pretty hard for you to do a bolt. I think that bolts are 'billboards', i.e. they always face you. Much like the flags. These cannot be made in BZW. If you want bolts, I suggest you look into world weapons. If you want them stationary, ask trepan for his stationary world weapon server plugins.

a shot is not a sphere.

it is a billboard ( a square that is allways oriented to the screen of the viewer ).

We do not have billboard map objects, you can not fully create a map object that looks like a shot or a flag.

No amount of messing with a mesh or map object paramaters will ever make a face allways rotate to face the viewer.
