mod debug - attach process

in Modding
1 start mod from decoda without debugging
2 switch to mod & get things setup for my scenario
3 attach debugger to running process
4 breakpoints dont work.

why #4?

i'm trying to bypass the long startup with debugging enabled from the start.

advice required.

    it's part 3 that doesn't seem to work...

    No way around it as far as I have found, long horrible debugging is the only way....

    You can use launch parameters:

    NS2.exe map yourmap -game yourgame

    btw, nothing's missing from there, NS2 doesn't use any + or - characters for the console parameters to execute on startup...

    ??

    Still just goes to the menu not directly to the map.

    using map <mapname> from menu loads but ...

    now i get authenticating errors lol.

    edit: reloaded steam & ns2 - now i get past the auth errors, but still not direct launch from decoda project settings command arguments using map <mapnam>

    In you project files, do you have the map folder in the correct structure, as ns2 does?

    Shot in the dark but hey...

    In Project Settings using:

    map ns2_summit -game "D:\NS2Mods\MyMod"

    In the Command Arguments field worked for me, it launched NS2 directly loading my mod & map. Are you doing something different?
