can someone explain zone teleporters

Post by Gregwards » Mon Sep 07, 2009 2:59 pm

i was mucking around in unreal ed 2.0 and got to a bit where i wanted to be able to fall from a height and not die, so i decided to add a zone teleporter. every other teleporter i have put in works its just when i get to this zone teleporter i get stuck. i have tried using http://www.birrabrothers.com/drac/ued2.html tutorial in it but it didnt help can someone explain how or link me to a video showing me how (would prefer a video it is easier to see where i am going wrong but i couldnt find any).

Reg think of it like a water zone. Instead of using the waterzone actor, you use the teleport zone. If you want it to be unseen, just make the zone sheet covering the zone flagged as invisible.

add me to MSN agutgopostal@live.com I'll be on all day if you want to swap maps and let me help you. I'm helping Hellfire out at this very moment.

cheers will do but im hardly ever on msn. im not planning on completing this map its just a test to see how much i can do and add to a map. i havent really got that far in it yet and adding things in as i go along. have tried looking at andromeda in unrealed but my computer really doesnt like that map. keeps saying must free space on primary harddisk but have no idea how to fix that. does anyone know of any other maps with teleporter zones in them?

The MHMVillage map for sure.

Maybe LongCorridor2006 and Planeshifter, but those maps use Warp Zones I think, so I guess it's kinda different. :?

Those sadist mappers prefer lava, acid and pressure zones so they can kill you 50 times in a row, especially on those BT rooms... Teleporter zones are not so popular.

cheers i actually scrolled throught the forum and found a map made by bigboss and with a couple of trys i figured it out. if i keep mucking around with it, a beta may be done in a month or 2 depending on how much spare time i have. please note doe it is only a beta im working on and may never finish the beta let alone the finalised version (ive lost alot of about 25 times now because my unrealed keeps having errors).

Somebody has to tell him how to do statues since I might be one of them. POTS?

I have no idea, I'm not a mapper, even if I have some sort of UT knowledge.

You should ask Supreme, he has the habit of adding a statue of himself in every single map he releases.

It's been awhile but there are a number of "bots" in the actors browser!
Look around in there.
You can pose just about anything with the properties of the actor.

1> Make a candle.
2> Change to mesh to ''soldier, commando'' etc.
3> Open the texture package you need for the skin.
4> Add the textures in ''Multiskins'' under ''Display''.
5> If you want a pose, look in Mesh at the poses and typ that name under ''Anim Sequence'' (also in ''Display'').
