Hi ppl...
I have been trying out for a while but can't get anywhere. I wished to make walls that can be shot through (like wooden or thin brick walls) but that you can't pass through (that kinda sucks!!). So far i had no sucess using the clip texture and weapon clip...
Anyone can help?

Make the wall noncoliding and then just put a clip brush around it.

Sorry, but it didn't work!! Perhaps im doing something wrong? ill describe what i do, first i draw out the wall in caulk, then i select it and aply the brick texture, then i select it again and make it non-colliding, and finally i draw out a clip texture exactly the size and fit of my wall.

Quick Solution:

make the wall non-colliding

Make another wall directly over it and give it the "no_draw" texture from the "tools" texture list.

Or you can just make a brush with clip_player texture cant you?

Ive run outta time to find a working texture for it, but heres how far I got.

I made a custom brick texture and did all teh stuff to get it to work. However, at the bottom is "Special Surface Properties". I had 4 versions but on all of em gernades would go through, along with bullets. The player could not go through, these only work if the WHOLE brush is the texture, no caulk or whatnot.

Boxes checked:
playerClip
aiClip
vehicleClip
siSightClip
nonSolid

I dont know if gernades would fall under the "missleClip" catagory or if you would have to uncheck the "nonSolid" box. The rest is up to you unless I find time later and noone else completed the puzzle.

[EDIT]
Just thought of a "ghetto" way to do it. However, its unprofessional and has overlapping brushes. Make your wall "non_colliding" then find a fence or grate texture that you can shoot through and run on / hit. Make your brick wall then 1 unit in from the sides where the players fire from put your fence texture. When they run at the wall they hit the fence but see the wall, they can still shoot through though. I think your still gonna have the gernade problem though.

1. techno, ill try it and if it works seems the simpler way....

2.if it doesn't work ill try your way sean...

3. uh...im kinda noob here amishthunder, so it will take awhile before i can go playing around with that....

4. veef, WTF is that????

Lol it is a map file create a text file copy and paste it into that file and save it as "mp_whatever.map" compile it and run. Now you will see a wall that you can not go through but nades and bullets can, if thats what you want open the map in the editor and see how i did it.

Uh...well, first, i don't pretend that all the walls are weapon clip, only a few ones from my choice, and second i only wish for bullets to go trough not grenades!! Though your idea will not be wasted. Is there any possibility that i can apply this to an object, individually, say for example a piece of a tent?
