<p><strong>Notes</strong>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br>This is a premade mesh model, created in a program like
|
||
|
|
Kinetix's 3d Studio Max. It is a static (non-animating)
|
||
|
|
model. Shaders can give it the appearance of motion, but no
|
||
|
|
animation. The models should be stored in a directory with
|
||
|
|
the pathname: models/mapobjects. The process by which models are
|
||
|
|
made is not a part of this document. Currently, models only have
|
||
|
|
rotation on the Z axis.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Models do not "clip" against players or weapon
|
||
|
|
hits. They are entirely non-solid. If clipping is important, The
|
||
|
|
user will need to build clip brushes that are roughly the size and
|
||
|
|
shape of the models.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Do not use the flip or rotate tools on models. Only use the
|
||
|
|
entity facing buttons or manually change the angle value. The
|
||
|
|
purple "3d crosshair" is the origin point of the model.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p><b>Make it:</b> Right mouse press on a map window to bring up
|
||
|
|
the floating entity selector. Select misc_model. A selection
|
||
|
|
dialogue box will open giving access to available .md3 files.
|
||
|
|
Select the one you want and it will load into the map. Now,
|
||
|
|
hit "n" to open the entity window. Click on the "model" key in the
|
||
|
|
key list box. Now edit the value field to remove part of the
|
||
|
|
line.

project its view onto a portal surface in the level through the

intermediary of a misc_portal_surface entity. Use the "angles" key
|

|

|
|
|
||
|
|
<br><b>target:</b> point this to a target_position entity to set the
|
||
|
|
camera's pointing direction.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br><b>targetname:</b> a misc_portal_surface portal surface
|
||
|
|
indicator must point to this.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<br><b>roll:</b> roll angle of camera. A value of 0 is upside down
|
||
|
|
and 180 is the same as the player's view.
|

<p><strong>Notes</strong>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>Both the setting "angles" key or "targeting a target_position"
|
||
|
|
methods can be used to aim the camera. However, the target_position
|
||
|
|
method is simpler. In both cases, the "roll" key must be used to
|
||
|
|
set the roll angle. Generally, this is adjusted after compiling the
|
||
|
|
map at least once.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<li>If either the SLOWROTATE or FASTROTATE spawnflag is set, then
|
||
|
|
the "roll" value is irrelevant.</ul>
