Objective problem


(Erus Nauction) #1

i am doing the classic, steal obj and run to n place.

problem is that the team_ctf_redflag is not showing when the map is compiled. i am using the secret documents model because i have verified that it works. i originally want to use a book but when that didn’t show i tested with the secrect docs and the model/flag doesn’t show. the models are fine cause i tried them outside of the flag system.

need more info please ask. i will give what you ask for.

Heh… nobody asks for favors to be returned here.

Anyway, I had this problem too, only with gold crates. Just put a normal misc_gamemodel (has to be a misc_gamemodel) where you want the docs to be, then use “setstate my_entity_targetname invisible” when it’s captured and “setstate my_entity_targetname default” when it’s returned. Remember to put it on the team_ctf_redflag. In theory this should not work at all and it’s impossible, but for some reason it worked for me…

EDIT: I just realized something wrong with this, though. When you get killed, it doesn’t show the goldcrate dropped. However, it’s still on your body, and it can be secured/captured whatever. It’s just invisible.

well i want to have it just like in the stock maps. i have gotten everything to show except the model for the book. no model showing, no flag to trigger.

i will try your way as last resort.

does anyone else know how to fix this problem?

the ctf can’t have a targetname, maybe you set one
