Quick-start guide for terrain editors, modders, packers and admins
You work on the map itself
Editing terrain, placing objects, working on mods, or QGIS. If you open TerrainBuilder or touch any source files, this is your checkout.
svn://maplabs.loginto.me/BoraBora/source
You pack PBOs and deploy
You pack PBOs using Addon Builder and deploy them to the server. You don't edit raw source files โ you take what terrain editors produce and make it playable.
svn://maplabs.loginto.me/BoraBora/deploy
Follow these steps to get the source folder on your machine.
If you don't have TortoiseSVN installed yet, download it from the official website:
Download TortoiseSVNChoose the correct version for your system (32-bit or 64-bit). Install and restart your computer if prompted.
Right-click on an empty area of your desktop (or any folder where you want the project to live) and choose "SVN Checkout..."
In the "URL of repository" field, paste:
svn://maplabs.loginto.me/BoraBora/source
In the "Checkout directory" field, set where you want the files on your PC. Example:
P:\BoraBora\source
You can choose any folder you like โ just make note of where it is.
TortoiseSVN will download all the source files. This may take a few minutes depending on your connection.
