How to make a Simple 3d lift platform for Legacy

Look at the example wad called platform.wad. |
|
1 | First create your 3d
platform you would normally for Legacy, (sector 4 above). I assume you already know how to do this. |
2 | Split your control sector into 3 sections (sectors 1, 2 and 3). |
3 | Make the floor/ceiling heights in sector 2 to be where you want the platform to be at its highest point. In this case floor = 128 and ceiling = 136. |
4 | Make the floor/ceiling heights in sector 3 to be where you want the platform to be at its lowest point. In this case floor = 32 and ceiling = 40 |
5 | Make the floor/ceiling heights in the sector 1 (sector that controls the floating platform) to be either the same as in sector 2 or the same as in sector 3. Depending if you want the lift to start at the top or bottom. In this case I am starting it at the top so floor = 128 and ceiling = 136. |
6 | Tag sector 1 with the next free tag number, in this case 2. |
7 | Also put this tag number on your trigger linedefs. In this case lindefs 5 and 6. |
8 | Change the linedef's special flags to be of the "elevator types". In this case I have made linedef 5 type 234 (switch repeat elevator Down next highest level) and linedef 6 type 230 (switch repeat elevator up to next highest level). |
That is all there is too it. |
