You can't use patch meshes as part of func_trains, either, FYI.

Is it only func_trains you can't use patch meshes in?
Cus I know you can use patch meshes with other func_*** entities, like doors, bobbings,pendulums ect as I have done it myself.

You can try it out. I was under the impression it didn't work. Perhaps I was doing it wrong!

It seems wierd that you're having trouble with this in SoF2 when we've sort of managed it in HL. I've never mapped for the Q3 engine so I don't really know what entities you have available. Do you have a func_tracktrain? That has a bank on corners parameter. In ToD, we still have trouble with stuff staying in sync though and mixing point based with solid based entities is a pain. Still, the general effect is there. Check out [url=http://[url=www.tourofdutymod.com]www.tourofdutymod.com][url=www.tourofdutymod.com]www.tourofdutymod.com and play the map bb_lz. You'll see what I mean.

Sounds like some of my hacks would have come in handy here too . I'm guessing that the same problems have been inherited from quake I all the way down? Well, if I work out what I want to try to to work to fix that essential limiation with good ole quake trains, I'll have to write up what we end up with . My theory is to move completely away from brushes, as soon as you add a brush/texture that rotates, the whole thing gums up over the network. Don't yet know if my theory will work tho, so perhaps it's just a pipe dream :P.
