Some stuff I wanna know

Postby clyzm » Thu Nov 10, 05 12:21 am

#1 - How do you make a water mover? Like a mover, but it's still water, for example, if I pressed a button or something, water fills up, and if I turn a valve, the water goes down ... How do I do such a thing?

#2 - How can I make a light mover? Like a mover with a light that moves around, but is invisible.

#3 - How can I make an archway?

#4 - How can I make a Zone Mover? Like number 1, except is a painzone that moves.

Thanks to unrealScript.narod.ru site, where they managed to translate this tutorial to Russian so I could easily read it two years ago! :)
I don't remember AttachMovers in Deus Ex, so use the second method. To make mover invisible just set flag invisible for all the surfaces of the mover. You may also need to make it non-solid.

Normal one will work fine too with this method, methinks.

i don'T like to be the sender of bad news >_<

but since you can't make movers with the characteristics of a zoneportal you can't make movers that act like that :x


and to be sure i just tryed it...
i made a corridor then a zoneportal added waterzone...
then turned the zoneportal into a mover.. rebuilded and saved..
after loading the map everywhere was water
Nobody is perfect...

I've got it! Attach Waterzone to the mover, make water properties (entrysound, exitsound etc etc)

ehhh..
with area of effect i just meant the general area where the water zone is responsible for..
that area gets limited by the zoneportals that represent the "portal" from one one to the waterzone
