screenies?

Ok, I have some screenshots below for ya'll.



Hey H3, some portals required me to jump into them so I could teleport to the link. Could you fix that I think that's rather annoying. It also looks like the bases are off center I don't know why I'm telling you this is doesn't make much difference but it leaves a clear space around the center monument.

Nice Job on the Physics Drivers btw

Fine Job H3!

thanks and i will make both bases centerd and ill try and figure out whats rong with the teleporters.

What I think is wrong with the teleporters is that the link teleporter is a little inside the block.

So, say if you put a small wall, for instance, if you using BZEdit, make the block Z=1 and you put that right in front of a link teleporter. The teleporter to which you are trying to go through, wont let you because there is an obstacle right in front of the other teleporter. If you shoot it goes straight through because your shots are above the block in the way.

hope that made sense.

so i should move it up like .1 or .2?

yea pretty much.

Try that then see if you can get through without jumping.

it still doesnt work grace

Well, the tele only has to be above ground. If it's even a little bit in the floor the tank won't be able to pass without a jump. Do you mind if I fix the problem and repost here with the new .bzw?

no please go ahead

I tell you what, you sure did make this hard for me I haven't a clue how to use wings. Just give me a sec to figure out how to raise the tele

EDIT:
Is there anyway to move the camera around faster? It's extremely slow...

EDIT:
This is what Wings looks like for me now..

hehe

Hey H3, could you repost the file but without the physics. I can't get the hang of Wings so I all just fix the tele's in BZEdit.

uhhh im gonna have to take out more than just the physics

urgh.

Just raise the teleporters up, or make them smaller. (the 1 inside the huge towers)

Dudes, Wings3D is a mesh editor. You can't change bzw objects with it.

lol cannonBallGuy can u fix the teleporters?

I'll give it a try. so I need to lower the tele in the tower right?

yes

yes please ducktape

no you need to raise the teleporter in the tower. If you lower it it would go even deeper into the block making it even harder to teleport.

oh ok well I need to get wings 3D 1st.

i have just posted the original bzedit version of this map hope that helps

Why is there a platform inside the tower?


I fixed the problem and made some changes to the teleporters (inside the tower)

I jumped in that 1 so you could get a better look, I didn't make anything smaller.
