Hi people,
Well is this not my area, but some friends call to help with a map, putting a solid into the objective of a map.
I search in net, but i found only spawn script to create models and triggers. In my case i need spawn a brush with locations highlights in screenshot, and texture it with metalclip.
Some idea ???

You can't spawn a texture, as far as I know. You can spawn a script object for the invisible clip brush.

Tom,
Thanks for reply.
If not is possible spawn a brush, so i need spawn a trigger with solid propertie. See in net, i found many examples, but i have little questions about this.
Based in screenshot i send, i write this peace of code. Is possible reply some question:
Code: Select all
local.subsolid1 = spawn trigger_multipleall
local.subsolid1.origin = ( 2744 3224 0 ) //x -> y -> z
local.subsolid1 setsize ( -704 -2055 -100 ) ( 704 2055 500 ) // how define this ???
local.subsolid1 targetname subsolid1 //i think this is relacted with spawnflags, ok ?
script object

I does not need it to be a trigger. A script object is solid, but will have no texture--can't make it metal.
local.subsolid1 = spawn script_object
"setsize" sets the location of two corners of the box. The numbers are unit distance from the origin point ( 0 0 0 ) of the box.
The object does not need a trgetname, if it is not being moved or turned on and off.

Maybe this:
Code: Select all
local.subsolid1 = spawn script_object
local.subsolid1.origin = ( 2744 3224 0 ) //x -> y -> z
local.subsolid1 setsize ( -704 -2055 -100 ) ( 704 2055 500 ) // how define this ???
Is possible have more references about the setsize operator ?

local.subsolid1 setsize ( -30 -40 -10 ) ( 40 30 60 ) // two 3d points in space (xyz)(xyz) define the size of the box from the zero origin point.
So for X, the edges of the box are 30 units to the left and 40 units to the right of the origin point.
And for Y, The edges are 40 unit to the front and 30 units to the back of the origin point.
For Z, the bottom is 10 units below the origin point, and the top is 60 units above the origin.
Now, can you figure out how big my example box is in units?
