laggermcjagger Posted June 3, 2017 Author Posted June 3, 2017 I also have an elevator prefab, script. I like this script because the above is only once, you can only use it once. This script is repetitive up and down. Still, this script does not have interruption between up and down, it has stops...which are kind of the same thing, but difficult to script for me, but I could essentially use it. My "button" is a turning wheel as seen in the film. I don't know if mine will turn as that's even more script, I might do it though...I probably will once I'm comfortable but for the meanwhile One side of the wheel will be up and one side will be down. So if I script two "buttons" for up and down, that's the left and right side of the wheel...easy enough, before I try to make a turning wheel...which is more work...but I've seen that sort of thing down and could probably do it...But to make things easier it will just be up and down for now....But, the script doesn't have a way to be stopped between up or down...it just keeps going like an elevator would...until it gets to it's floor.My script will have 2 floors all the way down, death, all the way up back to the map...What's nice is that the doors of this map are already scripted...It will be easy to backwards engineer...Both scripts lack what I need...to be able to stop up and down mid way...Which script should I use? elevator_commands { trigger goto1 { globalaccum 1

DoubleDragon Posted June 3, 2017 Posted June 3, 2017 you can target a check from game manager wm_objective_status 1 1 0 wm_objective_status 1 0 0 accum 1 set 0 and in trigger script accum 1 abort_if_equal 0 accum 1 set 1 or increase it to 1 accum 1 inc 1 or the opposite accum 1 abort_if_equal 1 accum 1 set 0 give it a wait time like 500 after accum to give game manager a break. in reference to RailGun script if you need to figure out how to and what I was referring to. There was a guide from Splash Damage about the stages but Im thinking all you need is a check point between them like the part Im talking about. Being this is about corner_paths tho you may have to retarget the entities to a target_script_trigger to add stages in radiant entities. Clearly I am tired today this is a thought about it just from reading the script. game_manager is spawn empty and some key targets are spawn empty so there you may need to work on the extra's Or move the scripts in to one script and use the target_script_trigger hope this helps please check railgun script for a thought into stages don't have to write stages it just needs to be named accordingly. Im tired will look at it again later my mind is not all here. 1 Quote
laggermcjagger Posted June 3, 2017 Author Posted June 3, 2017 You're a saint! Brilliant DD, thank you, I'll try it and let you know. I'll try to put forth a good effort before seeking help. Quote
laggermcjagger Posted June 4, 2017 Author Posted June 4, 2017 Well, this one is pretty damn annoying. It won't update my BSP. I keep compiling my map file and I'm forever stuck with an older version of a BSP file even after I DELETED it Quote
laggermcjagger Posted June 4, 2017 Author Posted June 4, 2017 Strange, I imported some map terrain and for some strange reason it won't appear in the game, I can see it in radiant, but when I play the game it's invisible, as if the brushes aren't there but they are visible in radiant. Quote
DoubleDragon Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 if it's ase it would be blue outline in grid it it's detail it will become invisible or if your using skip shader. Sometimes you have to delete everything for the map except the map and script also sometimes have to delete the maps folder for map name cause the bsp writes multiple files to it for over head images it could be missing. If there is a pcx for the file it must be in etmain sometimes it would end up in the maps folder for the map that has the pictures dunno mine just does should just be in etmain could be the way I use easy gen. 1 Quote
DoubleDragon Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 Oh also changing the shader from a detail brush to a structural brush will resolve the in game missing. press ctrl+M for detail press shift+ctrl+S for structual 1 Quote
laggermcjagger Posted June 4, 2017 Author Posted June 4, 2017 The kali mar statue room is difficult because it has terrain everywhere, the ceiling, walls, floor where it belongs. It's sort of like a really old room that was built within a cavern. So it's alot of work. It'll be fun, but very time consuming. I find that it's difficult to edit terrain brushes without leaks. Also there's lava polls and streams of lava and lava water falls. It's a pretty involved part of the map...Is there a way to make a texture that makes you burst into flames? Quote
DoubleDragon Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 What does the leak say in radiant put it in a hallow box and caulk it 1 Quote
laggermcjagger Posted June 6, 2017 Author Posted June 6, 2017 I really enjoy this, and it's coming along. But, *sighs* I'm almost 30, single, living at home... no real life... nothing to show for myself. I don't know if I'll work on this as much or any any more. It's a shame because I was learning how to script CPs, vehicles, and learning how to create elevators, so on. But, I'm not where I should be in life and I really should focus on more mature, responsible things than mapping for a game. I'm not really far enough along to give my files to some one else to finish, but maybe one day I'll come back to this and continue working on it. Maybe I'll continue working on it in a few weeks. It's just not something I can do every day and I'm not sure how progress on this will go anymore. I'm not saying it's canceled or that it won't ever be finished but my life...my life just isn't great andI need to try to change that. Quote
laggermcjagger Posted June 6, 2017 Author Posted June 6, 2017 Definitely not canceled as an artist I need creative outlets and this is a very creative process. I got a second wind when looking at the jedi academy community which faced extinction but to my surprise still has a mapping, modding community to this day. So many creative projects, it inspired me to atleast keep trying with my work.But, I can't devote as much time to it as before. I am inspired by all that is being done within these communities that have faced extinction but still carry on bringing new life and creativity to these old PC titles. Quote
DoubleDragon Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 Yep know the feelings wouldn't worry take your time no rush. I might map 30 mins a day now if I do anything guess cause I'm getting old as dirt Quote
laggermcjagger Posted June 6, 2017 Author Posted June 6, 2017 Why do games like JK II and III have controllable vehicles but not ET. Is it possible to add controlled vehicles to ET? I have no reason to, just curious... Quote
laggermcjagger Posted June 7, 2017 Author Posted June 7, 2017 So last night I discovered the power of fire for some reason. I got home around 2 AM worked to 3-4 and discovered fire. Fire is easy...my question is, if fire slows down or has any effect on gameplay or can I have fire everywhere in a room? Quote
DoubleDragon Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 No you can't control the vehicles their is only mountable entities like mg's you can add. Fire well is a animation probably be best if you detail the brush and make sure it has a cull value. Cull will cause it to exclude it from xamount of distance. As far as I know it use to be a problem a long time ago but pc's are better these days so I don't see a problem with trying it. For light effect I suggest reading this https://www.quake3world.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=42188 For shader understand what cull means as well. If it's against a wall use cull back so that not all sides of the animation will be drawn in the world which may cause fps issues for some people. https://icculus.org/gtkradiant/documentation/Q3AShader_Manual/ch02/pg2_1.htm 3.2 cull <side> Every surface of a polygon has two sides, a front and a back. Typically, we only see the front or "out" side. For example, a solid block you only show the front side. In many applications we see both. For example, in water, you can see both front and a back. The same is true for things like grates and screens. To "cull" means to remove. The value parameter determines the type of face culling to apply. The default value is cull front if this keyword is not specified. However for items that should be inverted then the value back should be used. To disable culling, the value disable ornone should be used. Only one cull instruction can be set for the shader. 3.2.1 cull front The front or "outside" of the polygon is not drawn in the world. This is the default value. It is used if the keyword "cull " appears in the content instructions without a <side>value or if the keyword cull does not appear at all in the shader. 3.2.2 cull back Cull back removes the back or "inside" of a polygon from being drawn in the world. 3.2.3 cull disable, cull none Neither side of the polygon is removed. Both sides are drawn in the game. Very useful for making panels or barriers that have no depth, such as grates, screens, metal wire fences and so on and for liquid volumes that the player can see from within. Also used for energy fields, sprites, and weapon effects (e.g. plasma). Design Notes: For things like grates and screens, put the texture with the cull none property on one face only. On the other faces, use a non-drawing texture. 1 Quote
