You just need multiple lights on the roof, be it lots of little lights or several large bea m type lights. Either way you want the actual light texture there so the light looks like it is coming from somewhere! After you've done that you can either...  [Read More]

You need a base image which is the entire thing including the bits you want to glow. Then you need a black image with only the bits you want to glow. Then you use the following shader textures/mytextures/baseimagename { { map $lightmap } { map text...  [Read More]

It's definately a ship only thing, moving players out of a ship (as in a ship they control) requires teleporting them. You'd have to animate the effect and move the ship as a func_static or maybe teleport them....  [Read More]

It should be in the tutorial pack, if not, it's a trigger_hyperspace, target1 defines the direction, target2 defines the place you spawn at. Make a func_group with a key/value pair of hyperspace/1 I believe. Basically the func_group becomes invisib...  [Read More]

Well I was there in the last thread this was mentioned where you posted and judging from if size was irrelevant you wouldn't say it (little psyche thing). I assume based on the way things are said and if you can read your own post and NOT assume you...  [Read More]

I'm glad you don't care about the damned size of the model, really I am...not! Auto-clipping is very buggy on anything but the largest of triangles. Imagine trying to make tons of tiny little triangular clip brushes for your model 1 unit thick manua...  [Read More]

I'm going to be vague because you can search for your answer (which exists here already and you'd know if you searched). You use a texture that says "SKY" on a blue background, not the actual large images, skies are special shaders. And d...  [Read More]

No one did, and Siege Destroyer is being marked as a Raven release, I know it's not, but the fact is people believe it is because it is from some of the workers at Raven, technically speaking it is from Ravensoft even if it's not official. Nor are w...  [Read More]
