Haha that can happen if your faces are turned backwards. Also, if you mess with the 'emissive', 'specular', etc colors, that'll do it.

Sometimes, even in the newest version, the materials do not appear correctly in the program.

The Door is technically not an item, but you can spawn it from the wrench GUI as if it were one.

If you're referring to my tutorial, it works. I've posted proof positive. If it doesn't work for you, you're doing something wrong. Make sure you're using the newest version of MilkShape...I am.

Well, I probably won't have any public servers with the Doors until they're ready for release. I don't want my model (though it's a relatively simple one) being whored out for other purposes. After release, there's not much I can do to stop it, but I'll do what I can to protect it til then.

Modification Help / Re: Mouse position to world coords (in script)
« on: August 30, 2007, 11:39:02 AM »
Well, I would do it like this:
%cursorpos = position of mouse cursor
%cursorX = getWord(%cursorpos,0);
%cursorY = getWord(%cursorpos,1);
%resolution = current screen resolution
%resolutionX = getWord(%resolution,0);
%resolutionY = getWord(%resolution,1);
%camerapos = %client.Camera.position
%cameraX = getWord(%camerapos,0);
%cameraY = getWord(%camerapos,1);
if(%cursorX < %resolutionX / 2)
{
%x = %cameraX - (%resolutionX / 2 - %cursorX) / 15;
}
else if(%cursorX > %resolutionX / 2)
{
%x = %cameraX + (%cursorX - %resolutionX / 2 ) / 15;
}
else
{
%x = %cameraX;
}
if(%cursorY < %resolutionY / 2)
{
%z = %cameraY - (%resolutionY / 2 - %cursorY) / 15;
}
else if(%cursorY> %resolutionX / 2)
{
%z = %cameraY + (%cursorY - %resolutionY / 2 ) / 15;
}
else
{
%z = %cameraY;
}
Then you need some way to scale the z value (e.g. zoom). Obviously the x and y values in the code above would need to be swapped based on rotation of the client's camera. Also, I'm not sure how well this would work if the client's camera was not rotated on the z axis at 0,90,180, or 270 degrees.
You might be able to make modifications using the forward vector, but I don't know for sure. I'm at work right now, I'll have to check when I get home.

Position of %client.Camera. Units of width = horizontal resolution / ~15. Units of height = vertical resolution / ~15.

Yeah, but then I'd have to edit my model. Meh blah arg ok, I'll see.
