Be careful when using portal_sky. A few small brushes or even 4 or 6 small terrain models in your portal_skybox will do nicely. But try not to go overboard on the models inside it. As this will bring down your framerate. Ugh...Gothix, that's not a v...  [Read More]

Okay this is the hiddenevil.shader. Why in the hell Astrocreep decided there should be a shader named h_evil included into the clean shaders is beyond my scope. But it 'IS' in the assets1 PK3. So Lil Killa, it comes with the game. It has to. Otherwi...  [Read More]

Read up on this system texture. It even says in the help file: Block NPC is more of a suggestion than an actual block. If a bot or NPC gets force pushed/pulled in there they will still get in and start hopping. But I use it too....  [Read More]

Yeah Wedge, I don't know what all that text editing is about. I have never had a problem either even though when you open up the ASE file the directories are backwards a bit. Mercenary, the advantage to ASE is less triangles are being drawn. NOT for...  [Read More]

Originally posted by Kengo I'm pretty sure there are a bunch of drawbacks to using model based terrain, big performance hits for one. Not that terrain generators don't have their problems. Kengo, mslaf recommends using models of objects and terrai...  [Read More]

Actually Lassev, all I did was make EXACTLY the same directory for the skin which the turret references. Unfortunately this is not only bad for your game but screws up textures for the normal turret in HOTH. So you get a green turret in HOTH....LOL...  [Read More]

Ahaaaa!! That's what I thought Wade! I will check out the use of area portal to see if that helps. I can use HINT lower down. I have an anti portal which is in use behind that hill in the tree shot. WOW! Anti portals work well when used properly :)...  [Read More]

I think I might have the sky problem figured out Wade. When you have a building or another part of the map behind a structural wall with sky texture applied, you can see right through the wall and it looks like your building is floating in mid air. S...  [Read More]

Actually I might be on the right track. The turret is actually an NPC. So I copied the sentry NPC file and I'm going to try using that along with a weapons file. Not too sure on this yet.......:confused: Lassev, all I'm doing here is REskinning the...  [Read More]
