I'm not at my normal computer right now so I can't check but look in the shader file to see which texture the fog shader is using.

ok so i know theres a telep[ort thing but is there a way to mak eit so say portal A only transports humans and portal B only transports aliens. btw can i hide said portals from both?

UniqPhoeniX · « **Reply #92 on:** May 30, 2009, 07:38:24 am »

Trigger_multiple -> target_relay (human/alien only) -> target_teleporter -> misc_teleporter_dest

make it whatever angle you want, then make a "slick" shader covering it and it will make people slide off.

lol · « **Reply #102 on:** June 11, 2009, 11:08:03 pm »

DONE! took me forever but mostly because i only mapped when i was bored until recently when i decided to finish it and start mappin again. anywayz now im off to figure out how to put it in pk3 form lol thanks for all the help on here. would of never been able to make this first map without yalls help

lol · « **Reply #103 on:** June 12, 2009, 02:27:46 am »

well im still tryin to pk3 and i would be done but a few of the file paths dont exist for textures. i been followin the file path on my textures and have gotten most of the textures cept for a few that just arent there or inconsistencies such as im looking for textures/nexus6/slime_s but find only a slime7c, anywayz anyone know why this is. once this is done i can upload to rapidshare
EDIT
well i decided to put what i could get into a .pk3 just to test it and it doesnt even show up once its in the base folder and i made the file name
map-overrun

Knowitall66 · « **Reply #104 on:** June 12, 2009, 09:08:00 am »

Ah, haha! You can't find it because it's a shader

(The shader uses the slime7c texture).

lol · « **Reply #105 on:** June 12, 2009, 12:06:00 pm »

oh lol, so do i just put shaders in scripts but i still dont know why my pk3 wont show up when i put it in base

UniqPhoeniX · « **Reply #106 on:** June 12, 2009, 06:11:02 pm »

Won't show up where?

Winnie the Pooh · « **Reply #107 on:** June 12, 2009, 09:54:11 pm »

He means ingame in the create server list thingy.

lol · « **Reply #108 on:** June 12, 2009, 10:04:11 pm »

UniqPhoeniX · « **Reply #109 on:** June 13, 2009, 05:17:20 am »

You need a .arena file (http://tremmapping.pbworks.com/Starting+Tremulous+Mapping).

lol · « **Reply #110 on:** June 16, 2009, 10:08:28 pm »

aight i checked yo link but havent been able to make a .arena file. i compile it and dont get one

UniqPhoeniX · « **Reply #111 on:** June 16, 2009, 11:57:47 pm »

The following is how a .arena file looks.

Mapname.arena <-- filename, first make a .txt, then rename

{
map "mapname_version"
longname "Displayed name in loading screen"
type "tremulous"
}

the rest of it goes into the file, mapname_version has to match .bsp name.

lol · « **Reply #112 on:** June 17, 2009, 04:07:15 am »

oh got ya, off to do that now. then i can finally put this map behind me and work on a new one that isnt so crappy

bacon665 · « **Reply #113 on:** June 19, 2009, 01:50:55 am »

Is anyone using his map on their server?

alright listen up. a forum board is ment to be for a statement to post up in front of multiple people, not to ask one person something.

the topic says "Mapping Q & A Thread(if you have a mapping question look here"
is
