Its so easy, just check your room elevation in the infobox below. Now make the floor elevation the same as the ceiling elevation from the room below. You must use the room buttons on the left. Select the floor and press the black button to create a door. When you have selected the lower room press on the W. This will make it a waterroom. For textures you must press the doublesided and transparent buttons and texture the floor in the upperroom. Good luck...IP: Logged |

Heres how you make a door:
First, place the door and switch on your map. Then, with FACE EDIT off, click on the switch. Now, click on the square directly beneath the switch (the square that the switch is sitting on, in other words), and press the pink trigger button. Now, click in the white box next to the trigger button on the left hand side of the interface. Set the trigger type to "SWITCH." Next, click on the door. Now, click on the square beneath the switch again (same square as before), and press the pink trigger button again. This time, however, do not set the trigger type. Certain doors must be positioned properly in order to open correctly. For example, DOOR TYPE 4 in the TUT.WAD should be placed in the room that the door is opening into. Others have certain height and width requirements. Getting it to work requires some trial and error, but the basic steps are always the same. And heres how you add cameras so you can watch the doors open:
On the square where you have placed the trigger for the door to open also place a trigger for the camera and a trigger for the "camera target" (the "camera tareget" is a nullmesh object that has to be place where you want the camera to point).
Make sure that when you make the trigger for the "camera target" that you designate it a "target" in the "Set Trigger Type" box. I would recomend that you copy and paste this stuff into a text document or something so youll have it when you need it  IP: Logged |
