moving train

yeah that shouldn’t be a problem, what I’ll actually do is write a tutorial at surface mapping (http://www.wolfensteinx.com/surface/tutorials.html) on how to do this, it might take a bit of time(can’t get onto my mapping computer til the end of the week ) hope you don’t mind waiting a bit. As for your spline problem, the white line either shows or it doesn’t, all of your splines have to be correct in order for it to show.

OK i’ve made test map that should help you. Grab it from here www.wolfensteinx.com/surface/tutorials/test_tut.zip. Extract the two files out of the zip and place them into etmain/maps folder. You will also have to compile the map. Hope it helps :drink:

Edit: also, does the scriptmover have to have a model2 key, or can it just bue a normal set of brushes in the form of a train or something?

Ive made a working train im just having problems where it starts at, i want it to run up beside a platform so u can walkinto it, but it wants to run through the platform and u know, causes teh train and the platform to clip, what all do u got to do that would change the spline_01 location of an object, ive tried moving the spline but it still runs into the platfomr, i cant figure out y

Edit, i got the part fixed, well sort of. See i know u r suppose to turn the object 90 degrees fomr teh original direction u want it to go in, and it does that just fine. the thing is that in Radiant i have it turned at a certain location at the 90 degrees thing, and right when it gets to that area, it whips around ot how i have it in Radiant, y is it going back to its origianl 90 dergree position when its not suppose to, someone plz help me, this train is driving me mad :eek:
