Hey guys! I have been working on adding an elevator to my map. I have had no luck working with the tutorials. I have also searched and can't find anything that seems to help. I'm not sure what works for cod4. I am fairly new to scripting but have some experience now. Here's what I want:

1. An elevator that works back and forth between 2 floors.
2. Doors to the elevator shaft that slide open when the elevator car is at that floor.
3. Some sort of lighting (I assume I cant move a light inside the elevator).

Some things I need to know:
1. What files do I need to set up and how (like what goes in my .csg file and what new files to create).
2. What code to use and how to customize it.

Is there a tut out there that will help me with these things? Which one(s) should I follow OR can someone help me with directions aside from the tuts since I have had no luck getting what I want? Thanks!

P.S. Sorry for being noobish, but once I get past this I will be able to do just about everything I could want on my own.

I will put together a sample map for you if you would like. Or if you don't want to wait, grab me on xfire (tee699).

Will include the .map and relevant scripts.

That would be awesome if you could do that! I'm sure it could help a lot of others too! Thanks a ton!

I know there are elevator scripts in the tutorials for COD and COD2 (maybe even for COD:UO)

I have tried going through those but they seem to be written for people who already know what they're doing. I haven't been able to get them to work at all. I either get errors or nothing happens. I'm pretty good at following directions but that only works if the directions are complete.

I probably won't write a full tutorial, but the map will consist of 'plug and play' prefabs that will work. I have commented the script so you can read through and try and make some sense of it. The map is almost done, and I'll probably upload tomorrow evening (8 pm GMT)

Any chance of copy pasting the script I'm in the process of optimizing mine and wanted to see how it stacked to other forms.

Double post but, does your script support more than 1 working elevator? And does it also support multiple triggers?

Is it a predefined x,y,z movement or does it getorigin or the caller?

Just a couple things I'm optimizing myself.

Thanks a ton Pedro!


Vote for Pedro! [thumbs_up]


BTW, I'm pretty good at writing tutorials. Maybe if I get a chance I can write one using your info. Just a thought.

Ah, while we're waiting.

1) Are you only making 1 elevator?

2)What kind of doors, sliding or rotating?

3)Lighting will be tricky. No way to actually turn them on and off so they'll have to be scripted to move between atleast places.

As for files you need,
