(Pegazus) #21

Yes i toke a look at it but that virtual tour aint nothing good. It just some photos, i expected something different :stuck_out_tongue:

Anyways i ran into a troble with something.
Heres the new look of the lobby. But the ceiling is fucked up it shoudent look like that it should look likeā€¦

This.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

I really like the concept of vertical maps, but canā€™t say Iā€™ve seen a successful one so far, so good luck, look forward to it

(Avoc) #23

I need to askā€¦ Your just compiling without lights, right?

(Pegazus) #24

Yes, maybe thats the problem :oops: Im gonna try to compile it with lights. :slight_smile:

Edit: ok found out that isint the lighting, i have somekinda bug whenever i change the floor of the lobby all the ceilings fuck up :o

I need to figure something out.

(Pegazus) #25

Ok i fixed the ceilings and got my work further on with the entrence to the top of the building.



^ Axsis will plant the Dynamite here to gain acceses to the roof to the flag or gold or w/e.

Here is something i need help with, what should i add here, like some old photos of Empire State Building, boxes, some weapons like a storage? I siriously have no idea what to add here :frowning:

make it look like a lobby on the top, and place the elevator right beside, make some pot plants and a little table + sofa and cigar on the table, also make a coffe machine, and some TV

(Pegazus) #27

I toke your advice Tyrlop and made a lot of changes :slight_smile:


Enjoy some snacks while watching TV :smiley:

Nice look for the second floor what you think? :wink:

Empire State Building Ratings coming from a projector 8)

Hopefully Axis players can read that message :slight_smile:

So is it a better look? :roll:

(Tyrlop) #28

hell yeah! now add much more planks etc! sandbags! and security cameras, MGs,etc etc etcā€¦

(Pegazus) #29

Ok so i am working on the security but there are few things i added.

Hopefully you like the ideas :slight_smile:

A secure door that can be locked and unlocked by both teams. The button that locks the door is on the last lobby floor next to the door as you can see. And the unlock one is on the first floor. The realy bottom.

Alarm button the roof. Allies can press the button to inform everybody. I am still thinking if it would give some advantage. Oh the light is hard to see on top so i am gonna add light everywhere around the Empire State Building. Inside on some lights and so on.

But i cant get those mother*ucking Security Cameras working can someone help me with those :slight_smile:

(Avoc) #30

You canā€™t make real security cameras that are able to survey an area and show it on a screen, as far as I know.

(Tyrlop) #31

just normal cameras like most other mapsā€¦ try to do exact as tutorial said

(Pegazus) #32

well i did, but when i compiled it the screen where the image of the camera is suppouse to be is just black :x I dont get it :?

(Tyrlop) #33

try to post what u did, there most be some error somewhere, maybe try to do it again? with a new camera??? exact as tutorial says

(Pegazus) #34

Ok i will try that later :slight_smile:

Here is a picture of the Security room from Editor. Axis elevator will arrive at this floor. So allies cant check the cameras all the time.

Oh and does ET have some good Alarm sound what i could use when someone presses that button, and the yellow light goes on? :slight_smile:

Edit:I updated the look of security room a little bit :slight_smile:

You cannot make any in-game cameras. You can make limbo cameras but not surveillence cameras where the players can look at the in-game.

Also, Do you remember to caulk unseen faces? Or else youā€™re going to have an incredibly high tri-count, which is bad.

And why donā€™t you use ā€œprop_chairā€ instead of the wooden ones? Looks much better that way.

(Pegazus) #36

But i have seen cameras work in ET Gameplay. Was it in MLB room or somewhere that had a secret room where i saw one. Well i ca use prop_chair but i dont like the look of the chairs that much but everybody has a different taste :P. And yes i have caulked the areas.
But do you know any good alarm sounds?

(Avoc) #37

Are you sure it just wasnā€™t a .roq animation much like the fire one?

There should be some alarm sounds in the pak0.pk3

(Tyrlop) #38

it isnt, and it will work. its like a mirror

what we realy need is some one to make us a realy pro elevator, like the one in canyon 3 or axis labā€¦ or any one got a good prefab of a elevator??? :evil:
need it urgently

(Wezelkrozum) #39

i can create an elevator
post me the sizes of the elevator. And give me the number of levels the building has.

(Pegazus) #40

Woah thanks man :smiley:

Ok it has got 4 floors which the elevator has to go and stop on a floor where it was commanded to.

Size, erm hard to say but can you make one so we can rezise it by ourselves?
