Need Someone To Help Me With Movable Coustom Vehicles and some other stuff.


(Darkix) #1

Need a mapping partner or partners to help with:

Making a Barge type vehicles that move from the water to a shipping port.
Making some kind of lifting vehicle that moves around the docked barge and picks up the cargo.
Making a track kind of like at an airport baggage pickup area that the cargo can go around on, only bigger.

If you also want, you can help with some ideas for my map.
You’ll be credited for your work.
:wink:

Booh at people being impatient.
Seriously, it’s been what, four hours? Not everyone lives online, you know. :wink:

As for your humble question(s): you’ll probably need to learn to script to do that. Making barges move or making cranes lift stuff is somewhat similar. You’ll have to look for tutorials on a) general scripting and b) script_mover entities. The latter can do pretty much anything, you only need to tell them where to go.

As for conveyor belts which can be found on an airport’s baggage hall: I don’t know if it’s easy to do. I know Duke 3D could do it, but AFAIK, there’s no way to easily push the player or other items around in W:ET. Maybe you could use some target_push triggers, but I’m not sure those’ll work as it should.

Note how my post does not contain links to tutorials. I’ll just give you a link to the Mighty Google to look for tutorials. One of the first mapping is to try to find answers to questions on your own, otherwise you are just dependent on your mentor.

EDIT: Oh, you could still enter the keywords I mentioned above in this forum’s search tool. It could turn up some more interesting results than a plain old Google query.

i could teach you script_movers.
i like getting taught much more than reading tutorials, you too?

I’ve read many tutorials on how to make movers, but it’s just really hard for me to understand. I was hoping that i could have someone work WITH me on the project, but if you want to TEACH me you can.

And what i wanted kam, is something like and oval, where the crains put the cargo after it’s taken off the barges. Then the cargo moves to a different area and that crain takes it off and puts it somewhere.
Is that even possible?

Thanks for all your help guys :wink:

isn’t that a bit unkind to ask for help and telling other people to install something?
use msn/yahoo as most people are using it.
