ure screens errrr are rather black... cant see much.

but:
for ur leak, read http://dynamic6.gamespy.com/~rjukanproj ... nSolutions

for ur door problem, read http://dynamic6.gamespy.com/~rjukanproj ... atingDoors

for the ladder read http://dynamic6.gamespy.com/~rjukanproj ... LadderDown (don'T miss Nemesis' tut)

Your sky brushes look wrong--there should not be a visible seam. Select all five brushes and apply the sky texture again.

hello

niceone done the sky thing looks good now and the doors r better
now sus out them ladders they still doing me in.

For the ladders: the most common reason they don't work is because you have set the angle key/value incorrectly ( or you haven't set it at all. Not setting it at all makes it use the default angle 0 ).

Select the ladder brush, press 'n', In the properties window imagine the ladder is in the center of the angle buttons, press the button where the player should stand to get onto the ladder ( if you see the ladder from above that is... ).

ill give it ago i have changed 2 pics on the link to pics of the ladder it leaks everyware when i take the ladder out the leak goes.


ill try the angles out on the other ladders for now

alsao igot this mesage on compile

************ ERROR ************
LoadPortals: couldn't read C:\PROGRA~1\EAGAME~1\MOHAA\main\maps\castleter.prt

Could this ladder be a very loong ladder? Then I would change all rungs into one brush with 5 sides nodraw and one side a transparent rung texture. If u insisted on 'real' rungs, read e.g. this thread

i have tried all that stuff man 2 days on ladders and still doing the same so i decided to build spiral stair cases.then i put it on on compile, man it seemed it was going to compile for about 8 hours is this normal ?
i tried again with another versoin without spiral stair cases and it compiled mutch quicker still slow though any ideas ?

also on compile it was saying my doors have a leak?

Make all the stairway steps "detail" (Ctrl Shift D), and it will not take so long. Doors leak when you copy them.

i know i hate the dor thing! i wonder why it does that?

If you want to copy doors, save it as a prefab and then load it fr each new door. No leaks that way.

yo i didnt copy any doors.

when u make a script for the level does .scr have to be in the same folder as the bsp and other files when u compile?

No, not when compiling, only when you run the map.
( actually, you can run it without the script, but if you want it to use the script when you run it, it must be in the same folder. )

cool

ok after i compiled i have no sound .

also i have to jump up evry step on my stair case can i sort this out .

doors still leak i must be the worst map maker in the world.

For the stairs make sure that they are no higher than 16 units high...I find it best to work in grid 4, founds under grid, if you are working in thegrid 4 than it would be no higher that 4 grid units.

About the doors, make sure that you dont copy func_rotating_door or any other functions. If you know which ones you copyed than go back and redo them by hand.

Ambient sound? Just make sure that goes in your script.

Other Sounds? Need to have a speaker I believe which is an entity and they also need to go in the script with the appropriate targetname and sound.

Hope this helps, and believe me things will get better, dont give up...you always have to start somewhere.
