realisable by Mapscript?

(Mr Desiato) #1

Hi all!

first of all:

I’m sorry if this not the right place for posting my problem but I’m done with raping google :-/

and secondly: I’m (still) a bloody scripting-newbie so please don’t touch me too rough :wink:

Nevertheless I would like to add some additional ladders to some maps (custom/stock)!

I already got the model.md3 file + the origins!

But each try to insert it into the specific mapscript results either in server shutdown or just nice looking but absolutly not climbable/unreal stuff!

so maybe any suggestions/ideas/examples/already existing but missed topics?

Already tried to solve it with gtk radiant but that did just result in the conclusion that I inevitably need a more powerful machine soon! :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks in advance

I think this isn’t possible without decompiling. You will need a brush that is textured with common/ladder. You’d need to find the source map file for the maps, add the brush(es) and compile it. Then youd need to rename all the essential files into your own pk3… Or am I wrong? Can you put a brush to a existing map without doing this? Ok I guess for the standard map files you’d only need to put your map file into your own pk3 and rename it. Or then found a brush that exist in the map and modify the shader. Is that possible to add a md3 like that and with shader info in it? Never heard of anything like that.

well… saw it already on shiven.net fuel only etpro server where’s just the specific .md3 model as external download so it must be part of the mapscript…!?

also tried it in the way like:



        create
        {
            scriptName "axisbridge"
            targetname "axisbridge"
            classname  "script_mover"
            origin "-10712 -5931 603"
            angles "0 -47 2"
            model      "*10"
            spawnflags "2"
		modelscale 1.04
        }

which adds the fueldump footbridge to axis base but I don’t know the "model “*??” number(s) for any ladder brushes and well…

do there exist any lists related to this “*xx” stuff?

:frowning:

thx so far…

Hi Mr Desiato and welcome to the forum. I am no pro but it sound like you want to add stuff to existing maps and I can only do that in the editor. But you can add stuff via script in the etpro mod (I think). So, I guess my question is: Have you asked over at the etpro forum (if that forum is still alive). And: Are you going to re-release the maps once you have added the things (have you asked the original mappers if it is OK)?
Sincerely

…but at least you own #2 in my personal Top 5 of best ET-maps ever since Eagles2ways! :wink:

erm and apart from that I’m neither interested in adorning myself with borrowed plumes related to any already existing maps/re-releasing 'em nor with unbalancing them by adding any useless/fun-oriented stuff!

!

(Ok… maybe I changed some paintings in eagles in the past via additional .pk3 but :o) … )

I just want to add these ladders for reaching some not-objective-oriented places which already may get reached by annoying trick- /doublejumpers anyway!

And my request in bani’s forum is still awaiting clear statements :stuck_out_tongue:

regards

Des

p.s.: did i already mention that I like Eagles2ways almost as much as good ol’ fueldump? many thanks of course even to Drakir in this way :smiley:
