Make sure that you don't have any FMs installed if you do, uninstall it, run dmap again and let Doom3 generate a pointfile. Then open your map in DarkRadiant and go to File->Pointfile

 

You should get a red line pointing to the location of the leak.

[Shadowhide]

got it ! thanks !

stim/response system not working with AI body ragdolls ?

[Shadowhide]

how make go to location objective ?I want make it second objective,but not final

goal2 is info_tdm_objective_location entity with clip texture

here is set up

 

[Shadowhide]

anyone ?

[Shadowhide]

how make objective visible ?

[Fidcal]

The goto objective looks correct. Is there a problem with it? If it is not working you don't need the 1 in the success logic. The boolean logic for that seems to be not working correctly and anyway you don't need it for a single component. Try leaving that blank. If it still does not work then post again. The only other thing I can think of is that the entity name is case sensitive so if it is named goal2 not Goal2 then that would break it. They must be identical.

 

S & R should work on any entity including a ragdoll. Check it on another entity and if it fails then the problem is elsewhere so post more details please.

[Shadowhide]

ah , I just forgot to click on Irreversible , objective unchecks when I leave that place...

 

ok,now I need make another objective visible after triggering.How to do that ?

 

 

[Fidcal]

There is an entity called atdm:target_setobjective_visibility under targets you can trigger.

[Shadowhide]

how I can turn on Post procession effect ? It suddenly stop working for me

 

why I cant turn it on again ?

I can't fully enjoy my favorite mod :(

maybe graphics drivers half crashed

2 switches frobbed,one entity triggered . How to do that ?

[Fidcal]

I'm assuming button switches here and not two levers that must both be aligned. I think this should work:

 

buttonA > trigger_onceA > trigger_countC > entityD

buttonB > trigger_onceB > trigger_countC > entityD

 

Set count 2 on trigger_countC

Set noTouch 1 on both trigger_onces

So, this means you were able to recover your lost FM WIP?

[stumpy]

Is there anyway to make AI's transparent in game or do I have to make special skins to achieve the effect. eg you have a ghost that walks around a room but only appears fully solid while in the light and transparent in the dark.

[Fidcal]

There is already a revenant spirit under the undead somewhere that is transparent. Have a look how that is set up. It needs a special skin I think.

[Carnage]

A few questions:

 

1. Is it possible to let AI appear only when the player triggers something at a certain moment or do you have to hide them somewhere just like 'Patently Dangerous'?

 

2. Say I'd like to create a daytime FM, is it necessary to create windows you can look through to create the kind of light you get during daytime or is it possible to create the same with an ambient light?

 

Cheers

1. Yes you can teleport the AI to where you want them. Look under targets in the entities for the dark mod teleport.

 

2. I don't know if we have any window textures that represent sunlit. Maybe someone can help you modify existing ones. So the best way then would be not transparent but a sunlit window texture, an internal light, probably projected inward from the window, and optionally the moonbeams effect modified to be sunbeams. I think this is a cylinder patch with a moonbeams texture. That is the way I would do it. I'm rather busy so hopefully someone else can guide you how to do the above in more detail but if not I'll try to make time.

Thinking about entering the "Seasons Contest" Carnage?

[Carnage]

Haha I might, count me in as a maybe contender. I've got an idea that I'd like to work out but I don't know if I'll have enough time, because maybe I'll have a new job soon which will be fulltime.

 

Thanks for the info Fidcal, I'll try it asap and let you know how it works out. More info is always appreciated but only if you have time, it doesn't really have a high priority at the moment.

[nbohr1more]

Thanks Carnage!

 

I will compile a tentative list.

[stumpy]

I've tried the revanant spirit but in fog he appears nearly totally invisible, until your standing next to him, his skin is an opaque black. And what about the head is there a way to always get the same head if I retexture a non undead AI.

[Fidcal]

You can also create a new head def and skin. Basically copy the head def you want, give it a new name, eg myhead, and add to it:

 

"skin" "<name>"

 

Then make a new skin called <name>.

 

On the AI use def_head myhead.

 

We really need a sword doing the same way.

 

I don't know about the fog thing but presume it must need the texture copying to a new def then some extra keyword so it works in fog. There is a keyword noFog but I've not tried it.
