The Dig remake WIP

[staberas]

Hello everyone , my name is Steve & would like you to show you my *unfinished* map
Which is called "THE DIG Remake", Yes its a small remake of the old adventure game of Lucas Art for you who dont know about the game go here& here,
Anyway here's a pic from the game so far



the space shuttle is not mine, its made by "Cornflake" founded on a gmod site ..(yep i'm not a modeler just a mapper)
Anyway, i *fixed* gravity (now i float to the ceiling very..very slow ;p ). I'm currently trying to fix some "thrusters" so i can move up-down in the map and lastly the adventure-gameplay part .



More screenshots & the map will be uploaded soon.Waiting for comments

Well it looks like a good start, albeit for the obviously squashed Earth.

[source-maps]

earth looks like a skippy ball

[ShaDoW]

Has it occured to you that Earth seems to be a bit... squashed?

[staberas]

Earth is a texture the "squash" problem can be fixed

[stoopdapoop]

heh, well there's not very much for us to comment on

But the idea sounds cool.

Oh yeah, and the earth is squashed.

Help.. Hammer crashed while trying to build my thrusters .I created a trigger_push around my character & a point_clientcommand that executes these commands:

Code: Select all

 bind "X" "ent_fire <trigger_push name>"

The map doesn't compile & when i try to re-open it i get an error & it crash.

Do you know another way to bind the trigger push with an key ? Thanks in advance

[srredfire]

Use a gameui entity and tie outputs to the thrusters, ie: PressedLeft ent_fire thrust3

[staberas]

doesn't work either , i tried "PressedAttack" -> "trigger_push" -> "enable"
(trigger_push is disable)

edit: the game_ui doesnt work with trigger_push for some reason anyway i'm fixing the cinematic game intro

Hey guys & girls , sorry that i haven't been around for a while but i had been busy with exam & ect .
Here some updates...



created the robot arm (entirely created with func_door_rot )

For the thrusters, you're going to need to set up logic_compare entities to work in conjunction with the game_ui.
In the game UI:
Attackaxis > thruster logic > SetValueCompare

In the logic_compare:
OnGreatherThan > thruster > enable
OnLessTan > thruster >disable
OnEqualTo > thruster > disable

Are you actually planning to remake The Dig, or are you just making a map with the shuttle and the asteroid?

[staberas]

For the moment only the part with the asteroid, with the game intro if i feel productive.

@ leadphalanx
thanks testing now
Edit: WORKS ,

Today i compiled my first astronaut model founded in nasa webpage



the model was original in 3ds. I manage to export it in smd using blender and with GUI StudioMDL 2.2 and a .qc
file i compiled the model successfully .... but model viewer gives me a "The model has no vertices." . Any idea?

qc file

Code: Select all

$modelname "astronaut\astronaut.mdl"
$cdmaterials "astronaut\"

$scale 1
$surfaceprop "plastic"

$sequence idle "astronaut.smd" fps 1

$collisionmodel "astronaut.smd" {
$mass 100.0
$inertia 1.00
$damping 0.00
$rotdamping 0.00
}

the studiomdl log
