3d bridge

First things first : I have read the Doomworld Editing pages.

Second : I tried to make a 3d bridge but when I tried to use it...their was HOM everywhere, and basically it was a total mess.

So, could someone point me to an example pwad or something that will show me how to do it properly.

I checked everything, it seemed ok. But knowing my skills in map making, something is wrong and I don't know what.

If you would consider using a source port (such as ZDooM), then making 3D bridges is a snap. In fact ZDooM provides everything you need to make a 3D bridge.

If you're working with vanilla DooM I can't help you, as I've never made a 3D bridge without a source port. Sorry.

Sorry, I can't use ZDoom or EDGE. I can use Legacy or Boom. But don't worry about it...i'll try and figure out how it screwed up...

Perhaps you should try and contact Mr. Rocket (download the Connector from http://www.xodemultimedia.com/connector to find him), who has made some awesome 3D platforms-pwads for legacy!

I think he's trying to do them for doom2.exe. Sadly few people master that art nowadays :\. Look at requiem and dystopia3. There are some cool 3d bridges in there.

Here is an example of 3D bridge in a pwad, Hell Revealed II, that runs for doom2.exe initially.

here's an example I did minutes ago.

now when you open this in a editor, pay close attention to the linedefs of the bridge. See that both sides are refering to one sector.

Requiem has one of the best examples of 3D-bridges. I made two of them in Stone Stratagems - Map18. There's always bound to be at least one in a megawad.

Thanks for all the help...

Deathman : when I tried your link....it got a 404 error.

Anyways...thanks again.

link is fixed.....

Thanks...

I finally got my own 3D bridge working...thank you Deathman!

I've nearly finished my 1st map(INDUSTRIAL.WAD),an' it's got 4.Yeah I had to read the DoomWorld description a coupla times before it made sense,it was those 'dummy sectors in the void' I didn't initially understand.

ftp://ftp.sunet.se/pubi/pc/games/idgames/levels/doom2/Ports/a-c/coecits.zip

Features 3D bridge objects and even 3D stairs. You may want to check it out.

Yup this map I've played once or twice and I have to admit its not too bad [/sarcasm].In other words if you haven't played it,do so.

Yeah when I first tried it I layed down all the sectors first and in the end it got really confusing. This time I put them down one at a time and adjusted them according first before moving on.

Yeah!
Thanks!
once i get this pounded in, i'll start adding in 3d bridges into GED2!
