I have decompiled the file data.cpk in the cpk directory of the game with the software : yace0.31
Then in the decompilation I recovered in the folder data => stage. My 2 stages where I want to add the portal to make them communicate.
I used XenoXmlConverter.exe to edit in XML the 2 *.map files
I added the following objects in the first *.map file:

I have all recompiled the xml files with : XenoXmlConverter.exe
Then I recompiled all with xv2stacreat.exe and the following tutorial:
animegamemods.net/thread/2855/creating-stage-xv2-creatorI put the targets stage and all the other parameters.
I added the 2 courses with : xv2ins.exe
In the script.x2qs file of creation of my parallel quest I have put :
Action PortalControl("exem1", "exem2", true, true)
Action PortalControl("exem2", "exem1", true, true)
Then I added my parallel quest with xv2ins.exe
I launched the game and my parallel quest and in the 1st stage the gate is displayed but not activated. Did I forget something ?
