Lava
« on: June 12, 2006, 05:20:04 pm »
Is there any trick to kill someone when they hit lava on maps?  The lava is a scenery set behind polygons and I can't seem to think of a way to put killing polygons without making it look stupid.

You'd have to put the lava scenery (or some burnt wood scenery or something) in front of the polygons so you don't see all the blood. Is that what your saying makes it look unreal - the blood?

Are you using Poly works or Mapmaker?

Eitherway, there's three options, in polyworks, there in teh scenery tab as "back" "Middle" and "front" you want front. IIRC in mapmaker there labeled 0 1 and 2.

Ok, The lava is like a pool with polygons around it so I can't put it in front.  My problem is if I put polygons to kill people on top of the lava scenery it doesn't look good.

Can you not make it so the polygons are invisible as in untextured? I thought you could do that in polyworks

I'm using polyworks and I'm not aware of any way to make invisible polys.  But please, show me if I'm wrong.

Use the marquee tool to select the polys and hit ctrl+R
