John Posted August 14, 2003 Ok.. Im using wad author to do my maps but I dont understand how can I set the X/Y offsets for the tops/bottoms of a secotr.. *IE lights and stuff* 0 Share this post Link to post
Amaster Posted August 14, 2003 You cant. The "flats" work on a 64 X 64 grid. You can do it in Zdoom though. 0 Share this post Link to post
Searcher Posted August 14, 2003 x and y alignments normally only apply to textures. is that what you mean, or do you mean you want to have a floor or ceiling that is lower or higher than some other part of a room. 0 Share this post Link to post
netnomad312 Posted August 14, 2003 If you have Wintex or a similar program, you can add new flats that are pre-aligned... I've done that before (created GATE1B and GATE2B for Y-aligned teleports). 0 Share this post Link to post
Fredrik Posted August 14, 2003 "Pre-alignment" is probably the easiest thing to do. I've used it to make 32x32-off teleport gates, 16x16-off TLITEs, etc, and it's certainly no problem at all, most likely faster than creating a script (but not preferably if you need gazillions of off-grid flats :P ) 0 Share this post Link to post

Flats align to this grid so if you want a teleporter to look right for example, you have to put it right on that grid. 0 Share this post Link to post

I put a line in front of the start, and when you walk over it, it sets the offsets of the floor of the sector. But not the ceiling. Then I would have to make 2 lines. 0 Share this post Link to post

Then I would have to make 2 lines. kludge kludge. make it in a script: script 1 OPEN { sector_setfloorpanning(tag, x-int, x-frac, y-int, y-frac); sector_setceilingpanning(tag, x-int, x-frac, y-int, yfrac); } much cleaner and no need for excess lines on the map. plus you can use sector tags over 255 in scripts (though deepsea may support special args over 255 (?), wadauthor does not, which is what he's using). 0 Share this post Link to post
Epyo Posted August 16, 2003 Well I didn't want to confuse anybody away from Zdoom :p 0 Share this post Link to post
