No, I'm not happy. So I made my own. :V edit: and unwrapped it |

Looks good. UVW's look a little wonky mid-blade and also on the handle. Modo? |

Maya. I cut the blade in half to save UV space, the middle section mirrors halfway. Handle already fixed right after I posted this. |

Post subject: | Re: EntityPlus - A single player Q3 mod |
A cut midway might look odd when properly textured though, especially if you are using a shiny environment mapped image. |

Post subject: | Re: EntityPlus - A single player Q3 mod |
If this was to be envmapped, I'd use a separate material and UV map for the blade anyway. For now it's meant for bare-bones diffuse, and I wouldn't use such UV space saving tricks (there are more) if I didn't know how to texture that. Someone split this sword discussion, please. |

I'm going to wrap up development on the mod so far and release beta 1 very soon. Maybe this weekend but next week at the latest for sure. After beta 1 I'll put EntityPlus development on the back burner for a while (something like 3 weeks I think). I'll use the beta for what's it's supposed to be: fixing bugs, nothing more. It allows me to focus a bit on other things in my life and other programming projects that have come along. After that, I'll release version 1.0 which is basically beta 1 with just bug fixes. After the 1.0 release, any new features will be implemented again. The mod's still open source of course, so the main trunk will still be open for development of new features so if anyone wants to work on it, feel free to do so. |

More or less, without the middle part. |

Some lazy texturing here, but didn't turn out that bad after all. Leave it as it is? edit: I tweaked the texture a bit more. That would be about as much work as I'm willing to do here. Too tired to package and upload the model, will do that later. Promise. |

I think it looks ca$h. An envmap would be a perfect finishing touch. Maybe some rust marks on it as well, to make it look "worn out". (Unless it`s a "futuristic" sword) Excellent work. |

I just tried to mimic the Q3 style a bit. Just fixed it, look above. |

Checked out the new version. The design along the side is very complementary... will be excellent for gothic themed maps. You have a lot of potential in the modeling department, and I`d love to see your future works for sure. |

From the top down angle, it looks as if the handle is a bit too thin to match the width of the blade. I would either narrow the blade or increase the width of the handle. I like the texture though. |

That sword looks extremely painful to use. Looks good though. |

Plus again it has quite a few smoothing breaks in odd places, even the blade at the end has some, which really distract from the look. |

YES! A rotating thingy! Perfect for rising bridges. |

Post subject: | target_print subtitle spawnflag / wait problem issue |
Congratulations. I like seeing a huge update come out suddenly. I've already updated my map to use deathmusic, subtitle, etc. I'm going to look into the camera cutscene stuff, and in combination with the target_playerspeed -1 feature. I also want to look into target_score a bit: I want the player to be rewarded some score points for picking up items, ammo, etc. I'm going to set like 5 points for +5 healths, and +15 points for green armor, +10 points for health, etc. etc. -- it will be a lot of target_score entities. Hmm, should make something like this default maybe? Similar to having a "default" like the bot health. spawnflag subtitle! thx Eraser But, I'm having an issue. It's showing the "wait" value as the message. See screenshot: This is my code: // triggered by a target_delay(wait "6") Code: classname "target_print" spawnflags "8" wait "4" targetname "text_intro_6" message "..." --- Also, another issue is: "wait" does not work on target_print. Probably the two issues are related? --- Edit: Also, the map music is still playing when the deathmusic plays. Both music playing together sounds strange. Can I do something like target_script to disable music, and then do info_player_start spawn target to enable music ? |

Hmm, should make something like this default maybe? Similar to having a "default" like the bot health. You could just use one target_score entity for each score value and have all items target those entities. deqer wrote: spawnflag subtitle! thx Eraser But, I'm having an issue.

It doesn't do this when I compile to code to .dll, but it does this when I compile the code to .qvm Gonna have to go and figure out where that difference creeps in. deqer wrote: Also, the map music is still playing when the deathmusic plays.

Bug: Slowing down player via playerspeed screws up their speed when they duck. |

Eraser: Here is the entities.def file for Ritual's FAKK engine, it might give you some ideas for single player entities. http://zero.robotrenegade.com/q3w/FAKKentities.def |

Defining complex game logic using triggers and targets is a bit daunting sometimes: Top-down shot: Side view: And that's not all, because GtkRadiant doesn't draw targeting lines for target2/targetname2 keys. Now I realize how cool this is, once I've done it myself now. My map is getting pretty busy now, but in a good way. It's interesting to see how a person can use entities in this way to do certain things in the map. You also feel like a programmer. : ) Although I cannot understand what exactly is happening amongst your entities there, I do understand that it's very cool stuff to setup. |

I didn't code the func_rotating_door entity myself so I'm gonna have to dig into it to find the problem. What exactly is wrong with the info_backpack entity? |

Fir the first one, I found out the problem when I browsed the source code: the spawnflags in the code and the spawnflags in the editor doesn't match (Spawnflags 32 and 64 are used for X and Y axis in the source code while Spawnflags 8 and 16 are used in the editor). However, maybe for the same reason, the CRUSHER spawnflag doesn't work. As for the info_backpack, the origin point is probably misplaced in the entity definition file. |

Eraser's map is probably a target practice tutorial like in TF2. That's what I see there, anyway. |

Ah ok, the spawnflags thing shouldn't be hard to fix. It's still not entirely clear what's wrong with the info_backpack though? What behavior is it showing? |

That's a problem with the model itself. |
