Can you do a big orange sci-fi door about 3x2 That opes upwards slowly?

Of course I can. I guess by orange you mean the color and not the shape. Is that right?
Do you have any sample pictures or you want me to create it the way I think it should be created?

EDIT: I already have that door in different variations. Do you need a frame for that door? And if yes do you want the size to be 3x2 including the frame or without it?
The speed can be whatever you want - just right click and set a number.

Um, like the one in Q4 and halo 2. You can really set the speed like that?!?!? Sweet! Well yeah I mean the color, mostly orange maybe with a metal fringe around the bottom or something. Some normal 1x1 yellow doors like the control room doors would be nice too. Both could have a standard metal frame probably. As for how it will look, not to thick (maybe 3 inches in RL) with a slightly curved top. Maybe a reinforced window in one part too. Other than that let your imagination run wild

How about changing the colour balance or/and hue/saturation of the stock texture. It will look something like the screen I've attached.

Quote: "not to thick (maybe 3 inches in RL)"

I have to deal with the width of the room/wall segments and usually the door should be thinner than those, but there are special doors included in the pack as well.

Quote: "Maybe a reinforced window in one part too. "

I'll think about that

Quote: "I mean the color, mostly orange maybe with a metal fringe around the bottom or something"

I have a similar door so I will just change the colour and will attach a screen in the next post.
Of course after the pack's been released I will take requests for resizing the doors (if technically possible), changing colours etc.

Quote: "Other than that let your imagination run wild"

I don't have any other choice

Thanks for the ideas!

Edit: attaching screen...

I forgot to mention this bug with all the doors in FPSC ("Door Armory Use" in my example). Please have a look at the video here.

Sorry if this was discussed before.
Does someone know how to avoid it?

It isn't a bug. it is just the animation playing and that is where the door goes after the animation.

The solution is not to build anything where the door will go after it plays it's animation.

Nice doors by the way.

I know that very well - I have animated more than 20 different doors so far.

Quote: "The solution is not to build anything where the door will go after it plays it's animation."

That's what I will suggest, but I was asking if there's any other way, not to see the result of the animation in other layers. Could you imagine what will happen if the door is 4x4 (as some of the doors in my pack)? LOL. Of course I will add some notes how to use the doors when I finish the pack.

Quote: "Nice doors by the way."

Thanks mate!

I will post some more screens of the latest doors later.
Cheers!

I'll test your pack, considering I've always commented on your work and gave constructive criticism. Because I am a fellow 3d artist (as is deathead who you asked).

@Tanya, @Deathead - Thanks a lot for the positive comments!

@Deathead - you usually say when something is not perfect, so is there anything you think could be done better?
I will retexture the laser barrier and 1 of the doors btw.

@Darimc, I will be happy to give you the pack for testing. I was going to ask you anyway. Thanks a lot mate! I will let you know in this thread when everything is ready.

sorry I forgot to.XD
The texture is too strange, if you mind me saying. Its got a great contrast, like on the top left of the picture, it has quite clean looking rock and the door its self looks to DARK compared to the other texture.
And the top right again the spike texture looks stretched. The bottom left looks good, and then it goes to different contrast which on this one. Because it looks like its a cave with a secret door.

Fantastic
are these UV mapped, as in the UVs are cut up and layed out, as in the mesh is flattened out, or are they multi sub objects with UV coordinates.

@Fluffy, thanks a lot!

@Deathed, that's not a problem, it's just a different combination between door frames, and animated doors. Some of the doors will come in 3 or 4 styles.
Quote: "And the top right again the spike texture looks stretched."

It's UV mapped, but I think it will look better if it's not...

@fallen one, thanks a lot!
Well - both
More of the doors use a separate texture (usually UV map) for a door frame and animated object (I think that's multi sub objects with UV coordinates). I try to simplify the things, if possible, but some of the doors (especially the sci-fi ones) need more complicated UV maps.

Cheers!

At first I was thinking to model the door in sections (like a sectional garage door) and animate each section to turn horizontal when it enters the ceiling. Of course that means you would have to use a single story room for a single story door and so on.

Then I thought, since the player can only be on one level at a time, and the door is already in a collision off state when it's open, can't you script it to be invisible (setalphafade=0 ...or 100? Can't remember) when the animation stops?

Best.

I'm sorry, my answers are limited. You must ask the right question.

Oh, in that case, thanks for asking. I really look forward to testing the pack. From what I see here, there is not many flaws. I hope this turns out to be as great of a pack as it looks (I'm sure it will be).

How about a pair of like 1800's gates like they always have in scary movies, also make it like 4 segments wide instead of one so it'd look proper

@xplosys, that's a great idea! I didn't know there is "setalphafade=x" in FPI. I don’t script every day. Thanks a lot!
Well, I think I will include this in the instructions for special cases instead of custom scripts, just because the doors use the original ones and I don't want to redistribute them.

@darimc, thanks a lot for the great comments!

@The Invincible, do you have sample pictures or links to those gates? Just to avoid any confusion...

Ice cube good job!! Would it be very complicated to make a box that opens up? like a chest or safe. Isn't it the same principle?
I've been looking for such a box for some time now to complete a look alike 'Thief" game series in which he is finding treasures inside chests in a castle.

Thanks! Yes it's the same principle, but it should be an entity only (not a segment which punches the walls). Great idea btw!

Quote: "Also have doors without the curb on the bottom"

Does this mean you want to keep the curb on the top?
I already have doors like those with no curbs.

Oh, I see you mean the door frame. I was typing curb, but thinking curve and assumed you talk about the animated entity. Sorry about that.
Ok, so you want exactly the same door with changed frame (no bottom curb). Anything else I have to change?

I guess, If the door or part of the door goes into the floor, then it needs some curb to go into, but doors that dont go into the floor, subtract into, I guess dont need curbs, I guess thats it in a nutshell.

Here’s the latest progress on this pack:

Doors for floors which come in different texture variations and 2 animations so far – "slide horizontally" and "open upwards":




Some big doors – The first one opens up->down (and has a bottom curb), and the others down->up (no bottom curb)






And here’s an animated chest, which opens and closes by pressing "Enter". My idea was this chest to be used for hidden items, but because of collision issues it can be used for displaying huds now. I’ll see what I can do though. I may use the same principle for a security safe and other similar objects.


Ok, I’ll create some videos tomorrow.

Cheers!

The chest is a great idea, would be good if you had ones open pressing enter, and ones open by player proximity.

Thats totally new having opening objects, id love to see more of these, they are great for pick up items.

Trap doors are great also, I love doorways in the floor, you can have them open up and reveal lifts or have spaceships come up through the floor, or a gang of nasties come up through them, fanstatic.

The chest is indeed a great idea, especially if you create one without a bottom that can be placed over a hole in the floor. (collision allowing that is)

Best.

Thanks guys! I am glad you liked the idea. I have planned to create a security safe first, but someone asked me for a chest... Here's the latest version (may be the final one):

Quote: "Thats totally new having opening objects, id love to see more of these, they are great for pick up items."


I will release a free pack for those who have purchased the door pack which will include more of these (of course the chest is included in the door pack now). I will explain that in the official thread when I release this.

The first yellow door is cool, but the frame should not be yellow as well IMO. The orange door is too... boring, as it has only one color repeated over and over. Some writing, a window, a metal trim on the door would all make it look a lot better. Other than that the newest doors and the chests look so good

These chests would be good for that fantasy pack that was in the pipeline, imagine having chest and boxes and opening them, perhaps they have something good, perhaps something bad, like a trap or monster, you can put in them what ever you want.
