Emon Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 I know how to make them, but they never work. They work fine in Q3, but not in JO. I've tried every portal shader I can find, none work. Mirrors work, but I can't use a misc_portal_camera and have it display on a surface of the world. Has anyone gotten them to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Business_Eskimo Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 Same problem here. I've tried everything I can, I KNOW that they do work in JA, i've seen it in some maps, but I get that missing texture 'holodeck' grid thing on the portal surface.

Leslie Judge Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 I have a little sample map of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon Posted June 21, 2003 Author Share Posted June 21, 2003 ...could you please tell us how it is done, or let us see your map? If portal surfaces work in JO, as in, from a misc_portal_camera and not just a mirror, we can do a lot of cool things, even some crude but effective portal skies. Yes, JA has working portals, and portal skies even. Portal skies are the greatest thing ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Business_Eskimo Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 Would you mind sending it to me too, Leslie? I've been trying to figure this out for ages. chrishepner@cox.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon Posted June 25, 2003 Author Share Posted June 25, 2003 Hello? Leslie? I haven't gotten anything yet. I need to get this working so I can have the camera zoom in through the window of my Super Star Destroyer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leslie Judge Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 Sorry, Emon! I wasn't online for days. I sent the mail just now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Business_Eskimo Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Great, thanks a lot. One question though- do the portal appear sideways to everyone else? Because if they do, I have figured out how to fix it. You simply add a 'roll' key to the misc_portal_camera with a value of 270 (im not sure but i think its 270).

Business_Eskimo Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 Nah, give it a value of -90 instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon Posted June 27, 2003 Author Share Posted June 27, 2003 Thanks, it seems I must have used an info_null instead of info_notnull or target_position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
