so, i used null's grate shader from mandolin.
i textured all faces of the brush with metal clip and the top face with the grate shader
in-game the grate is see through where it needs to be(between the grate slats) but i cannot shoot through the gaps.
id also like to cast a decal on the grate and it appear only on the slats and not on the empty space between them.
how can i do this?
grates
Re: grates
Code: Select all
textures/null_beach/proto_grate4
{
surfaceparm metalsteps
surfaceparm trans
//
//cull none
nopicmip
// A GRATE OR GRILL THAT CAN BE SEEN FROM BOTH SIDES
{
map textures/null_beach/proto_grate4.tga
//tcMod scale 2 2
blendFunc GL_ONE GL_ZERO
alphaFunc GE128
depthWrite
rgbGen identity
}
{
map $lightmap
rgbGen identity
blendFunc GL_DST_COLOR GL_ZERO
depthFunc equal
}
}
Re: grates
I think you can only have one at the time on a single surface. So it can either be blocking players with player clip or blocking bullets with weapon clip.
However i think you can easily use the backshader in the main shader, duplicate the original shader have backshader keyword in the main shader refer to it and then just set one shader to block players and the other to block bullets.

Re: grates
1. use shader only in visual way
2. playerclip manuall
3. weaponclip manually
4. profit!

Re: grates
vendetta i tried it that way but once a model is inactive it falls through the grate.
flags,dead bodies, etc.
but oddly weapons dont fall through.

Re: grates
i fixed the flags falling through problem. but dead bodies still fall through. currently it is metal clipped and covered with a separate missile clip brush
Re: grates
Why not just make it solid? In real life grenades wouldn't fit through that grate, and bullets would mostly hit it. So why have anything go through?
Or if you put brushes going across, like thicker supporting parts of the grate: | | | | | then dead players would snag on those instead of falling through.
