Well I had that type of idea but I found out because of certain entities that way wont work. I was told by a friend to use item_tfgoal and info_tfgoal.

in TFC escape map Post #55852
Hello Im currently creating a TFC escape type map and I want to hide key's at places in the map (I already have key model) for the player to find. Once they find the key they must then find the door so the player and the rest of the team can move on to a new section. Any help will be greatly appreciated and thank you for taking the time to read this.

I just cant figure out how to do this I have read the tecture lighting tutorial about 4 times and it makes almost no sense. Can someone do a step by step on how to make the white bars in www.gotbunkered.net/school.JPG into a light.

Alright I made a escape map with 16 info_player_teamspawns (might be rong type) but how do I make it so you can only be a civilian and how do I name the team/class and insert a custom picture cause I might do special model for this map.

Hi Im making a TFC escape map called school where you must escape from school. Im currently working on a classroom and I have everything done except the lights. Most of us are familiar with the classroom lights that stretch all the way across the roof. How would I go about getting that into my map. I made a long bar 1 unit thick and textured it white but I don know how to add light to it. Also how do I add a switch to turn it on and off?

plus if it didn't, all you would do is make the mirror a "monitor", and the camera facing the other direction of the mirror.

Now that is a good idea.

Hl2 will have mirrors for sure because in for example in cs:source you can see people comming up behind in the awp scope the glass mirrors everything. Also the floor reflects VERY WELL.

Alright for the waterfall I created a long object going straight down the map for the water going down. I then created a pool at the top and grouped them and turned them into func_conveyor. I then copied the grouped func_conveyor put it in the exact same spot and made it a func_water.

How do I add a model to my map for dpb. I tryed using a monster_generic with no luck. The model was in dpb/models/ and I entered the path correct. I then tried using cycler andl now every time I go to load the map it freezes. I even tried adding ! before model name because on some site I heard you had to do that.The model's name is alien.mdl I got it from my tfc folder and I have seen it use in game. I places it in my dpb/models/ folder.
Maybe some of my properties for the cycler are rong.

My second question is I tried making a waterfall and Im having some trouble. I was able to get water at top of the map like a pool but it wont flow over. I have read every tutorial I can find on waterfalls but on every one at the same part Im having trouble.

I figured out the problem right after I posted it see I was running my map in my own custom mod and I put your map in their not considering the fact that I dont have any of those models in the correct folder.

I feel like a idiot and let me explain why. Stupid me never changed the output path a my compiler so it was trying to copy my map to the old directory see I renamed my mod without change that. It works perfect now and thank you to everyone who helped. Oh and BTW Floater619 your map is awesome but for some reason none of the monsters appear I will take a look at it in a few.
