How Do You Make Holograms?

fool

<div class="IPBDescription">like in bast and hera..</div> In two level, bast and hera, theres holorgrams. In hera, the hologram is in the holoroom. In bast it is in the ready room. Well bast isnt really a hologram, but the one in hera is. How did they make that one? I would like to make one but i dont know how. I have milkshape, but i have no idea how to use it. Can someone tell me how to make a hologram like in Hera's Holoroom?

I don't know if this is true, get a texture you like, then make what you want the transpartent color to be blue, the special transparent blue, and then tie it to func_(not wall, but the variety that you can shoot through) And then set it to solid, when you render only the part you wanted to appears.

In the bast rr it's a model. This is for a certain type of flickering. In hera holoroom there's a big shade thing. It's probably two func_illusionaries, with a render of additive and a render fx of... 100 I'd say. Then you just put a fade texture on (halflife.wad 'fade' filter) and it looks nice. say two illusionaries because it faces inside as well. Some real VM'ing going on there.

The hologram in hera are models, 3 models, the base(under the next 2 models : ), the planet with offline on it and the yellow light, check the model map for it.

The answer:

I'm pretty sure Bast's rr hologram is a texture. To make a simple texture hologram on the wall, like the planet Hera logo, put the texture on a func_illusionary with all the other sides textured NULL, and set the render mode to additive, FX 255 and render type 'Distort'. This will make it fullbright and glowing, and also flickering too.

The Hera hologram is a model. This is also set to the additive 255 +distort render type.

i thought it were just a model rendered in distort-mode and the that was it... but what do i know... im just a n00b <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

Bast is an rr, that I am.. sure enough of. Why I don't know. (anyone seen relic25?)
Hera, I thought would be a model for the base, and world brushes for the rest of it (big light, sphere, computer offline thing).
