<div class="IPBDescription">..to run map within game?</div>What is the absolute minimum of entities needed to run the map within the game? I basically want to walk around as a marine or alien (cheats for that?) to check scale of things. When I tried with only the ready room start points, the map did not load. Then I checked the entities needed in the wiki for a "release". But there has to be a way to run a map without all the gamemode stuff placed?

    How did you start the map, with just a ready room start. If you used the interface of NS2, it might need the ns2_gamerules and team info entities. Try the console ie: "map mapname"

    make sure you have your map name in the ns2_(mapname) format. for example, ns2_smoothjazz or ns2_rockandroll

    Just drop a ready room start in the map and load it up. You will get console errors but you can run around to get an idea of the scale.

    EDIT: you will need an ns2_gamerules entity in the map
