Do I have to send you all wads from where I take textures?

[Sicamore]

Nope. Just add the textures to your wad, but include the names of where you took them from.

Need help with script

Code: Select all

script 12 enter
{
while(thingcount(t_mancubus, 705)> 0)
delay(1);
thing_spawn(704, t_redkeycard, 0, 0);
}

Redkeycard won't spawn.

Edit: Can't hand my map in if this isn't fixed :L

Try with this:

Code: Select all

script 12 enter
{
while (thingcount(T_NONE,705)>0)
{
delay(1);
}
spawnspotfacing("Redcard",704,0);
spawnspotfacing("TeleportFog",704,0);
}

Still doesn't work

I have noticed that when i go through the map normally it doesn't spawn, but when i cheat ( noclip ) to get to where you get the redkeycard the script works.

It seams that the script just dies if you wait to long for it ( e.g going through the map normally ).

Then you should execute the script in a specific moment with ACS_Execute(3,0,0,0); or with a line with this special 80 "Script execute"
and change "script 3 Enter" to "script 3 (void)".

Final map layout (bar a bit of detail):

[Blade]

I know I'll sound like a noob, but how do I use custom skies? I tried a lot of tutorials but have been no help. For reference, here's my MAPINFO script:

Code: Select all

map MAP01 "Entryway" 
{
   next = "MAP02" 
   sky1 = "SIDE5", 0 
   cluster = 1 
   music = "IDMUS1" 
   aircontrol = 0.5 
   forcenoskystretch 
   clipmidtextures
   }

{

   music = "IDMUS1" 
   aircontrol = 0.5 
   forcenoskystretch 
   clipmidtextures
   }

The mapinfo shouldn't contain brakets:

Code: Select all

map map01 "mapname"
sky1 sky1 0
music d_runnin
par 30
next map02

The old format does not have brackets. I recommend that you try to use the new format, since the project is meant for Zandronum. Although of course do whatever works and is convenient.

BTW Blade, your mapinfo works fine for me. Are you sure you're adding it correctly (old or new, the whole mapinfo should be the same format AFAIK)? Are you sure your map is MAP01?

[Blade]

When I try out the map, everything is just fine, but the sky is just repeated in its native size.

[Luke]

The ceiling texture, for every sector that has a sky, has to be F_SKY1.
If you applied the sky to a horizon linedef, that lindef must use the "special action 9 - Line horizon".

[Blade]

Okay I'm an idiot for using your advice after 2 hours of constant breaks, it worked. Now its just that the sky isn't stretched, but that'd be an easy thing to solve. Thanks for the help!

-Edit: Okay how do you expand the sky so it can wrap itself completely? (Woe, is me.)

[Luke]

Shall you show me a screenshot? If you did everything I said it should be fine by now.
However, join the irc, if you can, and then join #zccp or #zamapping, would be easier to help you.

Sicamore added those skies, you should try to ask him (you can find him on the irc in #zccp when he's online).

New version of the resource wad: http://speedy.sh/JdapY/GERALDINE.wad

Code: Select all

-Fixed the BFALL1-2-3-4 textures, now they are properly animated.
-Added GLDEFS for the chandelier.
-About 9 skies added to the textures (we forgot to do it before eheh).
-Added SKY19.
-Added SKY20 , made by Agaures.

[Sicamore]

That my friend is a skybox and not a sky. You need to make a skybox out of sectors ( a round area off map that uses those SIDE1 - 6 textures as walls) then put a camera actor in there to make this work. Trust me, it looks amazing if you do it in the correct proportions and with correct lighting.
