Surface Properties Flags !

[Cigs]

i always thought ...what is available/possible in MOHRadient should give mappers ideas for new maps.
This is a reason wanting to know more about MOHRadient surface properties Flags.

Surface Properties (puch S when a brushface is highlighted) as we know
from a tutorial -> (Water :: Dr ABAP) on .MAP
it describes how to set flags for brushface textured with misc_outside/river(watertexture) (other 5 side of the brush in common 'skip' texture)

Surface Flags:

v nolightmap

Contenct Flags:

v water
v transculent

- i ask if any1 knows about a flag - Post - explain a bit what possible -


THANKS!

For example heres a way to be able to shoot through fences:

Choose a grate or fence texture

Check these flags

playerclip
monsterclip
detail
fence

Now you can stand on it but bullets will pass through the gaps in the fence or grate,

Look for surfaceparms

thx for the link, jv_map
but Oh, a bit too complicated for me for now

Say I want this to be like it should. what do I do?


tried Surface properties ; transculent, detail, fence
tried textured the invisible 2 faces 'nodraw'
tried func_crate INDESTRUCTABLE

the black still shows & still's solid (like an solid iron plate shown as on the pic ?

You should give it an alpha channel and blendfunc blend in the shader. Also make sure you have disabled 'show non-shader images' in edit->preferences.

Show Non-Shader Textures was allready Disabled.
but i donno what you mean. have to write a *.shader script ? give it an alpha channel in there, add blendfunc blend?
how? wich *.shader script do I copy and adjust? do i have to write e new one? --> u see i don't know how

what i did do: Surf Prop:
v alphashadow
v playerclip
v detail

but the black is still there & bullets don't collide on the metal.
player can stand on.
texture in use: general_industrial/crossbracing1_set1spl

[Cigs]

ok I changed the texture to general_industrial/crossbrace1 wich looks just the same. guess this IS a Shader Texture! right!
black is invisible. no metal collision. but I can just make that using common/metal texture

info
Surf Props: (were automaticly applied when texture was applied)
v alphashadow
v nonsolid
v playerclip
v monsterclip

Great!

i have another question
v nodamage (Surface Flag)
does this mean, when a player lands on it no damage occures/ no health is lost ?

[jv_map]

Yes I think so

I don't think you can change the surface properties of a texture, with the surface inspector, if it already has them set in a shader file for that texture. But, I may be wrong.
