#10641: help

by aftasardem on 06/11/2008 22:39

i humbly ask to the more advanced mappers/ modellers, or someone whiling to help, to make a step by step tutorial exporting a simple animated box(say, rotating or simple moving from a to b), from blender into sauer.
something very simple but showcasing every step necessary...it would be a dream come true.

a question to the devs:
can i hope for some more advanced lighting/colision box to imported 3d models? in a possible future release, or is it something not even planned?
thanks in advance!

Rotating can be done in the model CFG, I think. See the celestial body models (too lazy to see what they actually are) in the map douze. They spin.

Moving from A to B can be done with platforms, though this falls apart if you want to use it in non-SP modes.

I'd love to give you more specific help, but I am no modeler, not by a long shot. :)

#10643: Feature request

How about the option to add flyby sequences to your maps?

1. It would finally be possible to have a nice stating menu background map: Like the castle in Unreal 1 ;)

2. It would be possible to have a short tutorial fly by that shows the player all important spots and capture points etc. (maybe some trigger-able text would be nice for that too).

thanks SheeEttin. i'm crazy about animated mapmodels, waving trees, a crane moving some boxes, etc etc....but i'm a bit slow on the animation side. i love blender, but i'm kinda of giving up on it. it is just too complicated to get into if you are a slow noob like me.
any ideas on some realy easy to learn animation soft?
config files are my bane too....(shame).

#10645: Spinning mapmodels

by Oh No Ghost! on 06/12/2008 07:35

Just so you know, you can make a model spin just by adding "mdlspin *speed value*" to its CFG. :)

Waving trees are probably better done with a vertex shader on the leaf texture btw.

#10651: AAAAUGH!

by JBridge on 06/13/2008 02:56

I'm trying to replace the sound that plays when you die with something a little more famous. Will a .ogg file work, or do I have to convert it to .wav, as the current files are?

#10652: Re: AAAAUGH!

by Hirato Kirata on 06/13/2008 03:02, refers to #10651

.ogg, .wav, .mid and .mp3 should work fine as music or sounds

if it's for filetypes other than ogg or wav, you'll have to insist on the extension though

on a side note, on POSIX systems, mp3 needs smpeg, and mid needs timidity or a similar midi library

Just one more thing: The engine is picky about what kind of .wav file you're using, so you're better off using .ogg. If you really wanna go wav, though, it's microsoft adpcm.

Thanks. The .ogg in question is the copy of the Wilhelm scream from Wikipedia. For some reason, it sounds soft. Oh well- it's good enough for me.
