#4290: Doors, Elevators/buttons, Sound

by Trilli on 01/31/2010 14:11

I study the whole manual and search with, but I even don\\\'t know how to create
1. a function door which opens if a player comes near to it
(or opens if a button is activated)

2. and I don\\\'t understand how to create an elevator
I create a mapmodel and then I create a (invisible)thing called elevator on the same position
What must I do know?

Hope someone can help me
Would be nice, I making a big High-Security Prison with ctf and team, but it looks better with elevators and not with jumpnodes

Doors and elevators will not work in multiplayer, last I checked. The docs don't say that, which is weird, but very important: barrels, platforms, elevators, doors, monsters etc are reserved for SP.

#4292: Re: map size

by SheeEttin on 02/01/2010 17:57, refers to #4288

Just take the smallest map size and remove any cubes you don't want.

Diamant: There is no real fog, mostly just a cutoff. You have to fudge it with lighting and a medium fog distance.

First, is it possible to make team-specific spawn points??? I have been trying for some time with no luck.

secondly, and I know this is a supernoob question, but Im having a hard time distorting blocks (changing them to any shape but a cube)

#4296: Glass

by Stotto on 02/17/2010 01:28

Am I right in thinking that in Sauerbraten, glass can only be done in whole cubes, and that if I want a glass wall, I have to make it out of hundreds of small glass cubes, and that also the faces of the glass can only be along the axes ?

If so, have the developers considered a variety of glass that only occupies the space where the texture solid would be ?

Alternatively, is it possible to use textures to make something that looks enough like glass in the existing engine ?

Stotto: Materials can't be sloped. Only full cubes. As far as I know, there is currently no plan to implement anything.
I'm told there is rudimentary support for transparency in models, though what this means I don't know (and I don't want to make a bunch of models to test right now).

When I use /newent sunlight, all the shadows on the ground have jagged/pixelated edges. Anyone know why this is?

Maybe your lightprecision is up too high without the aid of the blurlms feature.

#4303: Map Location OSX

by Taters on 02/22/2010 21:33

i've been trying to play a map i recently finished over lan with a few friends. we're all on macs. when we join the server, only i can see the map, they can all see me floating in the air moving over the terrain that i can see and they can't. obviously they also need the map, but i can't find the .ogz map files in "sourcecode". do i need something like a mac version of gcfscape to access them?

thanks,

taters

Click the show user files button on the launcher. Your maps should be in there.

#4306: Editing Corners = Hanging

by Imagamer45 on 02/27/2010 02:55

Whenever I push corners, the game absolutely hangs for a second or so, and then the change is made and the hang is over. I also experience a very small amount of lag whenever I push/pull blocks with the mouse wheel.

Does anyone have any suggestions to get rid of the hanging and lag?

#4307: Re: Editing Corners = Hanging

by Imagamer45 on 02/27/2010 03:01, refers to #4306

Oh, and I think I should mention that I can use Sandbox 2.5 (which uses the Cube 2 engine) with no lag at all when I do anything to the map.

This is Sandbox 2.5: http://sandboxgamemaker.com/
