#10436: Re: Is there any way to make a map outside the game?

by tentus_ on 04/28/2008 06:03, refers to #10435

Indeed. I was making some biplane models for my most recent map and decided to make the fuselage clipped by the model bounding box, but the wings were clipped by creative application of the clip material. It can be a bit painstaking to do properly (especially if you decide to move the model), but it works pretty well.

On a different note, if anyone wants a really hideous biplane md2, I've got one for you. :D

#10438: Feature or Bug ?

by e=mc^2 on 04/28/2008 20:15

It is possible to swim up waterfalls for example in the fanatic_caves map in Asassin edition and CVS.

Furthermore it is possible to swim up the lavafall in the hog2 map in CVS.

Is that supposed to be (physics violated)?

Yes, swimming up through water is supposed to happen. It's very easy for a mapper to disallow it if they so choose (just make a spike that is 1/8 the smallest gridsize and stick it square in the middle of the water. There are countless other ways to do it as well, depending on then aesthetic you want).

#10440: ..

by IllvilJa on 04/28/2008 22:27

...or embrace this ability of players to swim upstreams and simply enjoy the grim combat of the lava salmons!

Maps where the quad ONLY can be reached by swimming upstreams in lava! Only the brave (with asbestos underwear) will make it to that place and THEN those true salmons of fire can enjoy their well deserved PWNage :).

(Ok. I know. In reality, salmons do not SWIM up waterfalls... they jump past the waterfall instead... in case any picky wiseguy wanted to point that out ;) )

Killhour decided to load the lava texture with the pulseglowworld shader and apply it to geometry, and then covered it with water. so you're in fact swimming in water, not lava :D

If you're climbing up the lavafall when there's a jumppad RIGHT THERE, you're an idiot, sorry to say :P

...but if you're sorry to call ppl idiots, then why don't choose some more polite word? Then you don't have to be that sorry. Just a hint ;).

Hm. Wouldn't a jumppad at the bottom of a lava/waterfall be considered a "salmonpad" as it allows you to behave like a salmon in those nature films.

To add more spice to this subthread: the salmons do swim upstreams in the streams and past (small enough) waterfalls just for one single thing: to have sex with other salmons!

Concept for a new map named "Salmon party"? Every player has to get "upstreams" in some violent lava or water stream in order to, hm, interact with other players. Of course, that interaction will not be about reproduction but rather about mindless combat.

#10446: an important question

by smooth69 on 04/29/2008 20:16

hi,
sorry for the english-style. i'm german.

Why do you set this (e)-function behind the (w)-function [forward]?
i don't know the intention of (e). i don't need it. but in fight sometimes i press (e) instead of (w). and that the [beep] end of good way in a level.
in menue options i'm sure there is a possibility to change (e) in anywhere. very away of (w). But what is this (e)?

thanks for help

(e) is the key to enter/exit editmode.

Hmm... A central area, bounded by water(falls), playerstarts on the outside... Could be interesting!
I may make a map like that.

#10448: Re: an important question

by Hirato Kirata on 04/30/2008 01:17, refers to #10446

um... try this

/bind F1 (getbind E)

that'll transfer the bind of E to F1

I'm just making you type the getbind E part as I forgot if it was toggledit or edittoggle :D

but it doesn't get rid of E's binding, so now type

/bind E ""

too nullify whatever bind there was

and congrats, you can now press F1 to toggle editmode instead of E!

open up eisenstern.bat in a text editor and DELETE everything in it. then replace it with this

bin\sauerbraten.exe -grpg -r %1 %2 %3 %4 %5

if you're on Linux, just ./sauerbraten_unix -grpg

and if you're on OSX, I can't help you
