<div class="IPBDescription">W00t!</div> Check it out! I made POTD!

Just to prove that I'm not trying to steal others thunder, this is how you do it...

Make a simple map, create an info_player_start, then create a brush based texture and select info_join_team. Now, create an info_team_start. You have the basics of a map going. To get the turrets to fire at you however, is another story. Insert several monster_sentry entities in your map, under flags, tick autostart.

Voila, the turrets will shoot at you no matter what. When you hop into the CC, they will shoot at the roof <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Just make a game and put in 2349357 turrets to get into Potd.

    pfft monster entity turrets suck. you shoulda made regular turrets and put a cloaked skulk standing on a small peice of bulletproof glass to simulate that picture.

    I'm sure we all have at least one picture in our HL folder worthy of a POTD... why this one?

    Sorry but staged stuff just doesnt do it for me, the more natural looking screenies r heaps better, even accidental stuff is heaps better than mass turret farms and stuff we all done b4. Altho there was one i liked with a room full of phases that worked in the original version when u just walked on to teleport, aliens had alot of trouble getting through i suspect. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Hehe, if I didn't know better I'd say some people are jealous of Cronos 15 minutes of fame <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Hey look I made the POTD also:

    <a href='http://www.planetbattlefield.com/potd/index.asp?id=411577' target='_blank'>http://www.planetbattlefield.com/potd/inde...x.asp?id=411577</a>

    even though its not related to NS =)
  • hoju2hoju2 Join Date: 2002-11-04 Member: 6873Members
    That last one is kindof, unrelated to NS and HL in anyway.

    One question though, you say the turrets would always fire at you and when you went in the CC it fired at the ceiling right? Did the turrets fire at wherever you were looking or just at one spot in particular. If the turrets fired at the ceiling that would mean that the Commander view is just an entite above the map? And if so if the Aliens could get out of the map they could kill the Commander? (If hes a visible entity?)

    I'm only a newbie mapper so this is pure speculation on my part.

    Nice pic Keyser <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Hoju, the turrets fired at me where ever I happened to look...

    Also, the discovery of this was rather accidental. Either way, if it made at least one person laugh, then I'm happy <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
