Texture question

[darkpheonixz4x]

No, that didn't work.

Its odd because out of 5 triggers in my map, only these two don't work. And they're in the same room, and both of them are traps. (it's a deathrun map).


Would you like to see anything to fix the problem?

If you are NOT getting errors, then we can assume the entities are fine.
So, next thing is to test the loop.

Code: Select all

while( isDefined( bounce ) && isDefined( trig ) )
{
   setDvar("Error", "Before");
   trig waittill( "trigger" , player );
   setDvar("Error", "After");

This will test to see if the trigger is actually being triggered.
Make sure you have "developer" set to 1 and look at your console before and after pressing the trigger.
When you load, before you click the trigger type "/error" in console and make sure it states "before".
Then press the trigger and check "/error" again, it should state "after".

---

If you get "after" then we can assume the trigger is working. So, next remove the "if player isdefined" stuff and just print straight to the level, do not print to the player.

Report back when done.

Try and recompile your map.

I did that, but that didn't work.

One odd thing is when i compile the bsp, it finishes in like 5 or 6 seconds if I don't make any changes to my map. Is it suppose to happen?

Its weird because the trigger was actually working before, and now its not.

Sometimes Cod4Radiant dont accept when u change the the size or the possition of the trigger
Happens to me many times -.-
Try to delete and add a new one...

[darkpheonixz4x]

I tried what you said, but still no luck.

Would you like anything to see that could help resolve my problem?! It's really frustrating.

[megazor]

send us your map

[darkpheonixz4x]

Do you want the .map or the .ff? Along with the script?

[megazor]

send everything

[darkpheonixz4x]

I have attached the .map and .gsc

[Goro92]

delete the caulk brush under the trigger, or make it bigger

[megazor]

Yes, do it. Looks like your trigger is conflicting with another brush. By the way, your woldspawn has a targetname "decision_trap3_trig"

[darkpheonixz4x]

Wow thanks! It was the caulk! I replaced it with clip and it worked fine

My next concern is that I made misc/model and chose a xmodel. I need it to move in my map, so i tried to make it a script/model.

It gave this error message: Entity NOT created, can't make a point entity out of brushes

Any ideas of what to do?

Its really important that the model moves.

[megazor]

Don't touch misc/model if you want it movable. Just use script/model.

[darkpheonixz4x]

Great I did that! But here comes the next error

Code: Select all

trap_3()
{
 toilet1 = getEnt("trap3_toilet1","targetname");
 toilet2 = getEnt("trap3_toilet2","targetname");
 toilet3 = getEnt("trap3_toilet3","targetname");
 trig = getEnt("decision_trap3_trig","targetname");
{
 trig waittill ("trigger");

 toilet1 movex(60,3,0,0);
 toilet2 movex(60,3,0,0);
 toilet3 movex(60,3,0,0);

}

}

Here's the script for my 3rd trap and a screenshot of my key/values of the trigger.

I get a script runtime error for "trig waittill ("trigger")".

What do i do?
