Hello!
Actually, i'm trying to make a simple and basic map for SOMA, and i need to test and re-test map very often. My method is actually noob, everytime i need to see any changes in my map (expecially scripting for terminals) i launch it from ModLauncher.exe ... but I know that must be a faster method for testing and debugging.. I don't want to get through menus every time! any suggestions? ThaaaanksHuh
Use somadev.bat. this will load soma regularly but with developer commands. When it let's you, press f1 and go to load map. Select your map. When you make changes to your map just press f1 again and press reload game (f5) and it should work.
You can set up SomaDev.bat to put you directly into your map if I'm not mistaken. Once there, you can use F5 to reload the map without shutting it down.

Edit: I just now realized I was ninja'd.
thank you, it worked! Smile
