What i recomend. is that you do not animate the doors. But make those separate limbs. When the character moves a little closer you make it so the doors move apart. it could get a bit confusing using the animation etc.

Actually, I strongly dislike the (what I call) "cheap" effect of doors being open the closer you get; I'm thinking I will tell the door object to animate when a projectile hits it. Then I will make the player check for polygon collision using Intersect Object. Therefor, when the player shoots the door, it will open and the polies will be out of the player's way.

Btw, textured



PS: Here's the effect I don't like...Dunno if you were just saying if the player gets close then open them all the way.

Thats a nice texture man I think you should make the inside of the circle part a metal texture tho, it does't look right. The circle that is sticking out looks sharp lol, you should make it kill the player if it shuts on him :p

I agree that effect is unrealistic. You could simply set it so that when the player got closer than say 5 units to the door, it triggered a function that would move the limbs to open the door, or play an animation.

Hmm..I still think the concept of shooting doors to open them is better. Ofcourse, this is coming from someone who played Descent since 1995

Btw, I have a spiral door now



Huzzah! It looks pretty good in corridoors, too

Thats really cool! It would be nice if there was an image on the door that came together when the door shut. What type of game are you making?

Really? Cool, thats what I use. But I'm wondering, how did you set up joints and animate with the spiral door? Did you just rotate and move each one out a bit every frame? That would be apain to do perfectly

And I'm asuming you used Lithunwrap... am I correct?

No.. "Texture Coordinate Editor" built into MilkShape

And no, it wasn't a pain at all to animate the spiral door. First, I set the max frames to 55. Then I just placed a join at each rotation point of each section, independant from one another. Unchecked "Animation->Operate on Selected Joints Only" and hit Ctrl+K to place a keyframe at frame 1. Then I moved the slider up 15 frames, rotated each joint clockwize 90º and hit Ctrl+K. Moved it to 40 without touching any joints and placed another keyframe for the pause, and finaly, at frame 55 I rotated them counter-clockwize 90º and hit Ctrl+K. Then I can play the animation

And I fixed the indent in the first door


and accidentally added rust here
