Domination map 4 problems

(Destroy666) #1

Hey, I’m making my first map (Domination mod map).

  1. I have added a shark model and made a trigger_hurt area. I have made 4 info_train_spline_main and connected them.
    How to connect the shark model AND trigger_hurt with a script_mover to this info_train_spline_main path?
    And what to add in script?

  2. What must I set as mapcoordsmaxs and mins?
    I tried already many coordinates but i can’t still generate tracemap.
    Here’s 2D of my map.

  3. How to assign 2 script files (dom_islands_pb and dom_islands_ctf) to my map?

  4. How to make shader from texture?
    I wanna enable ladmines and change to grass steps on my texture. - Solved

And not-map question - who is creator from Domination mod?

Thanks in advance.

for mapcoords, try using plugin supplied with radiant 1.5

Thx, G-map done.
What about other things?

Lanz made the domination mod. Here is his public profile:
http://www.splashdamage.com/forums/member.php?u=447

It was originally called the powerball mod iirc.

Here is Lanz’ first posting about the mod:
http://www.splashdamage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6147

It is a really nice and fun mod. My maps for the mod are available here, complete with .map file:
http://www.loffysdomain.com/list_of_et_maps.html
Just scroll down to “Multiplayer maps for the modification Domination”.
Anyone can copy and use the .map file. Dazzle the community with new domination maps!

Loffy,
OK, but can you answer my third question?


I though I solved this 4th question, but in-game I can plant landmines and texture wont show.
Can you say me what's wrong in my .shader?


```
textures/dom_islands/trawa/trawa
{
    map textures/dom_islands/trawa/trawa.jpg
    surfaceparm grasssteps
    surfaceparm landmine
} 
```


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hmmm, G-map in my map is OK, but in radar tracemap isn't placed corrected. Why?
(stealth6) #6

cause the tracemap has to be square?

(Loffy) #7

did you add the shader to the shaderlist.txt, or what it is called (can’t recall - not at ordinary computer atm)?

(Destroy666) #8

My command map is square. The reason is wrong position of radar. Sorry, didn’t saw it earlier.

Yes, i have my map in shaderlist.txt. Skybox textures are showing, but grass not.
EDIT: Solved too. The right code:

textures/dom_islands/trawa/trawa
{
    qer_editorimage textures/dom_islands/trawa/trawa.jpg
    {
    map textures/dom_islands/trawa/trawa.jpg
    }
    surfaceparm grasssteps
    surfaceparm landmine
}

Please help with the first and third questions now.

i think “mapcoordsmins” (Top left corner coordinate. Example “-256 256”. ) and “mapcoordsmaxs” (Lower right corner coordinate. Example “256 -256”.) must be square to generate the tracemap.

than join ET
… open console

/devmap “mapname”
/developer “1”
/generateTracemap

this should works

3. How to assign 2 script files (dom_islands_pb and dom_islands_ctf) to my map?
…[/QUOTE]

Is this map only for the domination mod?
Not sure how to add two script files than.
You could have a look at the other maps.

In stock W:ET (and the mods Pub, NQ, Jay, Pro) you can add a scriptfile for object/campaign mode and one scriptfile for Last Man Standing mode.

Is this shark script good?
Will it move all the time?

shark
{
   spawn
   {

   }


   trigger move1
   {
   followspline 0 splin1 50 wait
   }

   trigger move2
   {
   followspline 0 splin2 50 wait
   }

   trigger move3
   {
   followspline 0 splin3 50 wait
   }

   trigger move4
   {
   followspline 0 splin4 50 wait
   }

   trigger move5
   {
   followspline 0 splin1 50 wait
   }
}

How to add trigger_hurt to this script_mover?
How to add rotating in splins?

(nUllSkillZ) #12

As far as I remember there’s a tutorial for scriptmover.
Originally it’s for RTCW.

You should have a look at the Tutorials and et mapping resources thread.
Or google.

(Destroy666) #13

I found only tank or track tutorials.
There aren’t answers on my questions.

Can I add trigger_hurt to my script_mover as a ‘tagent’?
Or should I add it as a target?

(Loffy) #14

I have never done it.

It has been discussed here:
http://www.splashdamage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5859
and here

EDIT: hi macbeth! Ye, I remember. Thx for help and suggestions. All mappers need server admins and others that support custom maps. I am working on two ET maps atm. Ready soon (I’ll start a new post when it is time).

(stealth6) #15

maybe a stupid idea, but if your trajectory isn’t to big, create lots of trigger_hurts on the path of the shark and then setstate them as the shark swims around?

(macbeth) #16

hi Loffy
you stopped to map for enemy territory?
i remember when we tested your map Total Tankrace b3 with you on our server

(Destroy666) #17

Hey, I have error:
script_mover must have a “model”
I read this is because no origin, but I have a origin.
Whar’s wrong then?

EDIT: Nvm, I won’t make this script_mover.
I made pk3, started map… and:
Reached_BinaryMover: move - error
What is this?

(Destroy666) #18

Sorry for double post.
I tried everything, searched how to solve this problem.
I’ve found only 1 topic: http://www.splashdamage.com/forums/showthread.php?p=168387
But there’s no solution.

Here’s my .pk3 file (with .map)
http://www.speedyshare.com/787466512.html

Can someone take a look?

Oh, I forgot.
I’m having 57 brush errors in Radiant 1.4 after working with Radiant 1.5 (coords tool).
Maybe it could help you.

(Wezelkrozum) #19

The problem is your script I guess. I tested it without script and the map did work well. But now I need to sleep :slight_smile:

(ailmanki) #20

According to that code, a mover is getting in a errornous state in your map.

/*
================
Reached_BinaryMover
================
*/
void Reached_BinaryMover( gentity_t *ent ) {

	// stop the looping sound
	ent->s.loopSound = ent->soundLoop;

	if ( ent->moverState == MOVER_1TO2 ) {
		// reached pos2
		SetMoverState( ent, MOVER_POS2, level.time );

		// play sound
		if ( ent->soundPos2 ) {
			G_AddEvent( ent, EV_GENERAL_SOUND, ent->soundPos2 );
		}

		// return to pos1 after a delay
		ent->think = ReturnToPos1;
		ent->nextthink = level.time + ent->wait;

		// fire targets
		if ( !ent->activator ) {
			ent->activator = ent;
		}
		G_UseTargets( ent, ent->activator );
	} else if ( ent->moverState == MOVER_2TO1 ) {
		// reached pos1
		SetMoverState( ent, MOVER_POS1, level.time );

		// play sound
		if ( ent->soundPos1 ) {
			G_AddEvent( ent, EV_GENERAL_SOUND, ent->soundPos1 );
		}

		// close areaportals
		if ( ent->teammaster == ent || !ent->teammaster ) {
			trap_AdjustAreaPortalState( ent, qfalse );
		}
	} else {
		G_Error( "Reached_BinaryMover: bad moverState" );
	}
}

According to some other google finds,
these can cause this:
func_bobbing
func_door
func_door_rotating
func_pendulum
func_rotating
func_static

Hehe… good a new map for domination… Maybe that gives it some life.
