Tunnel Efect Created 17 years ago2006-09-06 18:07:06 UTC by DarthRevan

"First, make a box that covers the entire opening of your tunnel. I suggest making it 1 unit thick. Make this box a func_areaportalwindow"

This is the tunnel efect tutorial, but what texturre shoul i use in the 1 unit thick block ??? Cus i made it with nodraw and it is not working ;/

Did you set the settings of the func_areaportalwindow, and did you tie it to the func_illisionary?

yes , i followed the tutorial ( did you tie it by the brush proprietes in the place when you tipe a name ??)

What you do is make an areaportal window in the middle of a func_illusionary. You texture the areaportal window all in NODRAW and the func_illutionary all NODRAW except for the face you want to be white. You texture the face you want to be white, like sky/fakewhite or something like that. Then you go into the properties of the areaportal window and set it's rendered window to the func_illusionary. Then go into the func_illusionary and disable the shadows. Set the distace for the fade blah blah blah. And that's it.

i just found something in my compile window:

Brush 9750: areaportal brush doesn't touch two areas

Brush 9750: areaportal brush doesn't touch two areas

Brush 9750: areaportal brush doesn't touch two areas

Brush 9750: areaportal brush doesn't touch two areas

Brush 9750: areaportal brush doesn't touch two areas

Brush 9750: areaportal brush doesn't touch two areas

Brush 9750: areaportal brush doesn't touch two areas

Brush 9750: areaportal brush doesn't touch two areas

And the 2 brushes are causing themselfs a LEAK !!! I tried all , i placed both brushes in a nodraw cube but they still cause leak, some how in pointfile , the red line makes a lot of strange movements and the line starts in the areaportal and ends in the illusionary !

PLZ HELP !!!!!!!!!!

The area portal must not have gaps in it. The red line may show you a tiny hole.

yea, areaportal brush doesn't touch two areas, means that the areaportal doesn't completely cut off one vis leaf from another. You need to make sure the effect is streaching from one world brush to another.

I believe I released a example map, you can check that out if you have problems
