Oh well that explains it then, the part surrounding it is a model. I will fill it in now, thanks!

Damn I hate the current area i'm working on, so many problems! Now I have a problem with a vis portal on a door I made, I have done vis portals for all of my other doors and never had a problem but this door is giving me problems! I kept the vis portal pretty much within the door frame and it does touch the door but it just wont work, it doesn't even show up in game with the r_showPortals 1 command.

Ok I did exactly that and it worked. I have no idea what I was doing I seriously spent about 3-5 hours trying to get this to work haha. I have tried alarm systems and just about everything but thank you very much for taking the time to go through it step by step

That doesn't seem to do anything The guard just stands there and there isn't even anything in the console either.

So I can't quite figure out how these stim/response system works it's driving me crazy! Basically I have it set so that when water comes into contact with a torch it causes to guard to walk a path. I have tested the path and it works perfectly, I have tested the water effect and it works good as well (I caused the guard to be knocked out and he was when the arrow hit) the only problem is I just cannot get it to trigger the guard to start his path. The path I have set is Guard >targets> Waitfortrigger >targets> Pathcorner I have tried activating the guard but nothing happens then I tried a trigger once but that doesn't work unless I physically walk into it. Within the stim/response editor I have tried the effect Trigger and activate stim (trigger) on both the guard and the trigger once entity however nothing has worked. Am I doing something wrong? because if i'm reading into this correctly that should work

WE'RE UNDER ATTACK HIT THE DECK! Still haven't got the hang of this stim/response stuff

Those look fantastic! I especially like that second picture, has a really good feel to it

Is this still working in the game? http://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=Relighting_Lights#shouldBeOn I tried adding the spawnarg and everything else but even when I set it to 2 the guard just start looking around afterwards. Has that changed into something else?

I would wait for the new Thief, the older ones are garbage they don't even include Focus (and I mean Garretts a Master thief c'mon) plus the graphics are REALLY bad.. those games look like they were made 10+ years ago. Plus they have this garbage voice actor and they let you jump whenever you want and shoot rope arrows wherever you want which COMPLETELY ruins immersion. Just wait for the new Thief! /sarcasm My personal favorite (not just in the Thief series but out of every game i've ever played too) is Thief 2 but out of Thief 1/3 I definitely prefer Thief 3. Whilst Thief 1 is great I HATE the undead and halfway through Thief 1 it really started to feature way too many missions based around that whereas Thief 2 (and Thief 3) return more to the roots of just being Garrett and stealthing around living entities like a badass which is the playstyle I prefer.

Is there a way that perhaps using a stim/response I could get the guard to start looking around? I figured out how to make the light react when it comes into contact with water I just dont know what I need to change on the AI. Is there perhaps something like a CurrentAIState Suspicious sort of thing?

Yeah I set that to 1.0 but the AI still does nothing when lights go out

Does anyone know the best way to set it so that an AI will always investigate a Torch being put out? I read through the wiki and found a page about it where you have to apply an arg called shouldBeOn and I applied that and even set the args on the AI so that he notices lights and relights them at max but when I put them out nothing happens. How do you guys usually setup a torch to be relit and then put the AI on suspicious searching behavior?

I noticed that about the roof as well Moonbo and am going to add a beam to support it or maybe even change the roof to wooden. I find the hardest part of mapping is picking the right textures and even a simple change can make the world of difference. But that's why I post screenshots here, so I share part of my progress and get some advice from everyone

Updated Watchtower

That's an excellent idea! I'm going to add some then repost it Thanks

I know this article is for the Unreal engine but it lists some good pros and cons for both sides http://utmapping.wik...-vs-subtractive

Here are the two screenshots I used in my recent diary entry on my FM thread

Added an update onto the first post

Read the post above you I got it all sorted I was looking in the wrong place the error was on me Thanks for your help though!

Oh wait i'm an idiot. Sorry Moonbo you were right it is F, I didn't see the green dots the first time around. Thanks guys! thats my derp for the day

That doesn't resize that side though it just moves the whole entity

I mean drag it out similar to how the opposing sides are dragged out

How do you resize from these directions with the mouse?

That trailer is great! Really good job I think my vocal clip is a bit too silly for it though Did you want to send me some lines so I can re-record it to something better?
