Hi,

For some reason I cannot add Armor to map(s) (ArmorPickup)

I click the 'Add Armor' etc... from my list to add and the screen flashes, no armor is added.

I checked the standard UT2k4 maps and their armor has also gone? ( I was going to copy/paste to my map)

This is on WIn 7 32bit... Ultimate, 4gig RAM and a ATI Radeon card.

As I recall, the armor pickup (ShieldPickup.uc) is not a placeable class, it can only be spawned from a pickup spawner (ShieldCharger.uc) that is placed in the map, so look for those instead.

If you have a map that was made for UT2k3 it might have the shield pickup as an addable/placeable item on the map that you can then select,copy and paste it into your map. Can't remember which maps though. That is how I was able to use it in one of my maps and it works in UT2k4.My map CTF-Templeofrings(UT2003).ut2(old version as new one hasn't been released) has the Shield pack as a placeable item in both bases.
