Mario Kart WIP

(Gir) #1

This is a new map i am making Inspired from a TF2 Map, and as a Sequal to Mario ET

//youtu.be/XZprmy-ZSTc

I just need a Bunch of Karts , that go around the map, not sure how this map would play out ?

Any one have Mario Prefabs, Karts and Stuff that be very useful

You might have copyright problems with the used textures.

Is this a CTF map?

There’s a map featuring two tanks.
As far as I remember it’s called “tank race” (by Loffy ?).
Might also be an idea.
There could also be some Mario Kart items to power up or down the tanks.

2 tanks by 2bit. One of my favourite maps.

Afaik those two tanks weren’t mountable, you can only have one ‘drivable’ vehicle, though you can have as many script movers in the map as you like, till you reach the max entity limit that is with all the spline points and such.

(Smurfer) #5

That’s right, they are not mountable.

I placed a Tank that circles the track.

How do i align the Clip with the Tank Model. ???, because i can walk through the tank.

This map will be a fun frag map, no missions.

Make some clip brushes that cover the tank, make this your primary script mover complete with origin brush in the same location as the model origin, then you assign a model to this script mover, I can’t remember the key and values for doing this, not got radiant to hand to check. The model will appear where the origin brush is located.

Thanks for the info Chris, I did not know how it was working :slight_smile:

It can’t be mario kart without the Red Turtle Weapon :slight_smile:

Was there an ET mod with drivable tanks, cant remember the name ?

You should make 4 tanks that are 1/4th of the normal size. (scale)
They drive around really fast (much faster than usual), you can play around with the animations to make them drift around the corners :smiley: (here’s an extreme example of something that happened to me once: http://www.xfire.com/video/21b6d4/)

In the middle there are 2 buttons, when you press the button your tanks makes half or a full lap. So basically KOTH, but with fast vehicles that can run you over when you try to cross the road to the middle :smiley:

You might need some alternative ways to the middle though like jumpads on the roofs or something. Or add clouds you can stand on? (I think these 2 ideas are in the TF2 version too)

Interesting… Do you still have the script stealth6?

}

tank_turret

}

This is the relevant part. The lines with:
followspline 0 info_train_spline_main2 80 length 100 wait
make the tank look like it’s drifting, 8 is the value that makes it look normal. I found this out by just putting random values in and seeing what would happen, so I have no idea why it does this :smiley:

Thank you :slight_smile: Will have to try it someday :smiley:
