with the door, you can make an aaatrigger somewhere along marine or alien start so once they spawn you can make it go to a multi and set the mutli to five minutes. im not sure if that way would work as i havent done that before but im not sure on how much the timer goes up on a multi.

Papercut

YOu can use a trigger-random to trigger the door, I think.

I'm not really sure what you are trying to say, but let me see if I can... work it out...

You are trying to get texture lights to work. You are attempting to add them using the decal function and whne you load up the map, you get that error?


If that's what you're saying, don't add them as a decal, but rather just as a normal texture on any surface and you'll be fine.

n00b, n00b, n00b!

ouch!

u can not add lights as decals, and the deacls <b>MUST</b> be in the decals.wad (don't add or remove any of them btw)

making a door close 5 min to the map, put a funk_door in the void (out side of play area), and set its dealy b4 fire to 240 - this is about 5 min
