blurry vision to start

all credit goes to the mapper CodMapper and Seelow for making me want to know how he did it.

this blurs your vision and changes your stance while the level starts for 30 seconds
should be timed with fx and some sound.

instructions
1)
copy and paste

Code Snippet

Plaintext

maps\startcrash::init();

under

Code Snippet

Plaintext

zombiemode::main();

in your mapname gsc

2)
in zombiemode.gsc in ugxmod in mod folder directly under the entry round_start() around line 1757 (use notepad++)
copy and paste

Code Snippet

Plaintext

wait ( 25 );

where it says

Code Snippet

Plaintext

wait (5);

this will start the round start,your vision, and ugx smoothly
otherwise rounds count up while your downed.

Paste the following into a blank .gsc. include it into your mod/mapname /maps folder and rename startcrash.gsc

rotating brushes in game

/*
1)
include the entry at the very bottom of these instructions a blank gsc and rename the gsc rotate
copy and paste

Code Snippet

Plaintext

maps\rotate::main();

under

Code Snippet

Plaintext

zombiemode::main();

in your mapname gsc

include the rotate gsc in your mod /yourmapname /maps folder

2)
for a single object make brush right click with it selected and make it a script brush model
give it these kvps
kvp

Code Snippet

Plaintext

 targetname: rotate 
script_noteworthy: x or y or z (only 1)
speed 1 (1 is slow 5 is normal)

For multiple parts around a "fake center"

make all brushes for your moving piece

make another brush 8 by 8 square

place in the exact "fake" center of where you want all your brushes for whatever your making to rotate around

click only the (8 by 8) brush and select texture origin

with this origin brush(8 by 8) selected select the rest of the objects you want to rotate

right click and make a script brushmodel

click one part of it and give it these kvps (it will automatically give the kvps to the rest of the brushes that you made a
script brush model at the same time

Code Snippet

Plaintext

targetname:rotate
script_noteworthy:x, y, or z

. (only 1)

This is the rotate.gsc. I have no idea where it came from originally

  while(true)
  {
  // rotateYaw(float rot, float time, <float acceleration_time>, <float deceleration_time>);
   if (self.script_noteworthy == "z")

pipes with a cap on the ends need to be selected and right click entity, ungroup( this ungroups funcgroup/capped cylinders) before they can be made script brushmodels

check pipes.gsc in modbuilder
compile level
this includes a few fx and you might hit a limit with ugx some custom fx and the jukebox combined
