ladder

[c4]

I added the ladder shader to my map, and when I tested it, not only did it not work, the "texture not found" gray boxes appeared where it should've been.  Halp

Just use the Karith ('karith/ladder') one, pretty much everyone seems to use it.

STEP ONE: make a brush. this will be the one your ladder will look like

STEP TWO:
copy the brush

STEP THREE:
select the texture karith/ladder in the karith texture section

FINAL STEP FOUR:
move the ladder texture onto the other brush. make them align PERFECTLY and make sure it dosent show texture overlap, like on the brush to the right.

if you want the ladder to be on only a certain part of the brush, use the clipper tool and cut out your ladder and use the clipped texture as the ladder

He said the shader wasn't working, not that he didn't know how to make a ladder...

LOL, sure not all! I prefer always put textures in map. =)

So... thats ladder shader u need:

Code:

textures/your_map_name/my_ladder
{
  qer_trans .5
  qer_editorimage textures/your_map_name/ladder.jpg
  surfaceparm ladder
  surfaceparm nodraw
  surfaceparm nolightmap
  surfaceparm nonsolid
  surfaceparm trans
  surfaceparm nomarks
  surfaceparm noimpact
  surfaceparm playerclip
  surfaceparm metalsteps
}

You can ignore this " qer_editorimage textures/your_map_name/ladder.jpg " if you dont care about editor view. =]
Just put this shader into your *.shader file and use it in your map. Note: Dont forget change your_map_name to your map name!

There's a common/ladder in data-radiant-1.1.0, if you use that, you should already have it.

I noticed that some pk3's include scripts/common.shader (*cough* sector17b) which breaks it.

Interesting...

If you make a custom (or non default) shader don't for get to add it to shaderlist.txt.
