Changing Propeties Of A Wall.

Crow

I was thinking of a cool way to create a door and what i came up with was a wall that was semi see-through and unpassable. When u pressed a button, the wall became much more see-through and you could walk through it.

To do this i was thinking of either having some sort of train that with a huge speed with a func_wall being replaced by a func_illusionary of different lighting, which would acutally work well if i had a slow vertical movement to the wall. But then i was thinking that many people here might know another more simplier/complex way to create a better effect.

You can use a func_wall_toggle, trigger it and it will be removed, trigger it again and it will comeback. env_render can be used to change render properties of other entities if you wan't to hide the func_illusionary while the door is "closed" or if you wan't to change the render properties from solid to invisible in a few steps and not instantaneously.

make two idetical brushes.
texture them teh same etc.
now make one a func_illusionary.
this will be what you see when the door is open.
so we'll make it:
render mode: adittive
render ammount: 25
the the other brush is either a func_door or a func_wall_toggle.

well yeah
