Stargate ring transporters - Garry's Mod

Hey I made a video tuorial for this, could it be possible for you to add it to the front page after youtube has accepted the video??

I don't see why not.

Thanks :D. [MEDIA]http://youtube.com/watch?v=trp5Xd-dhNQ[/MEDIA] Youtube accepted it fast this time :eek:!

Err.. that tutorial's pretty wrong. You don't have to press find range unless you want the rings to travel away from the base. The panel only has to touch the base once (it'll do a blue flash effect which you can only slightly see in spacebuild due to the atmospheres being shit).

It's not pretty wrong when two failures aren't even a big failure. If you want me to make a new one I will do it. Or you can make notes under the movie.

Cool, My internet keeps breaking at my house so I can't use the updated version At this point in time ;/

[QUOTE=Trekkie0]one point in the video you hear someone cough loudly. :V[/QUOTE] Seriously :D I have to watch it again then!

I got my download! :holy:

Cool

First. Thank you Catdaemon. For a great Ring transporter. I have a question (I is actually a request, maybe an idea) I would like to have a platform that just send and receive the rings and don't show any rings. Example 1: Map cs_assault you put a ring platform upside down on the railroad bridge and then underneath the bridge a receiver. Now when you Dial the ring platform the rings will spawn and walk to the receiver where you stand and pick you up then it will go back to the platform and Spawn you there. Example 2: Let say that you build a ship with a ring platform. You want the rings to go trough you ship to the ground and then pick you up like in Example 1 and then back to the ship and spawn you there. And, i almost forgot if you Dial the receiver and take the ride from the ring platform to it, it would be cool if the rings Disappeared at the receiver. PS. I want a button that make the rings to go all the way no mather what distans. DS. /miriam Thanks for a great GMod Addon

Where do i place it?

Addons!

Miram you got a point there. The cargoships use that kinds of ring but i think it will be very hard to make i think.

[QUOTE=shadow_thee]Miram you got a point there. The cargoships use that kinds of ring but i think it will be very hard to make i think.[/QUOTE] Actually no - the cargo ships work exactly as they do at the moment (with a ring on the top and bottom). I see no reason to add anything else.

Nice transporter, but I can't get it to work, I have extract it to the addon folder and when I start the game it's just comes up a sawblade. I don't get it. Isn't it suposed to be like several rings like those ones on the picture?

You have to touch the control panel and base together and make another one so you can transport to it.

You are a god to me(but no Gua'uld)! Now can you add if possible wire to it. I have herd you have the ori rings too can you add those as well?

[QUOTE=shadow_thee]You are a god to me(but no Gua'uld)! Now can you add if possible wire to it. I have herd you have the ori rings too can you add those as well?[/QUOTE] I do not have Ori rings, I've said I'll add them when someone gives me models.

[QUOTE=coolme]You have to touch the control panel and base together and make another one so you can transport to it.[/QUOTE] ok, control panel? I'm new in this so I'm not as good as the rest of you gyes. where is the control panel?

Catdaemon what program do you use to make models? I want to try make the control panel.

My personal opinion is that the mod is great but there are a few things I would like to see added or changed. 1 thing is the fact that the control panel teleports too which is very annoying at times. Another thing would be the Control panel model. For a mod this cool it should look cool and modern, this one looks like it was found in a dumpster.

For a mod this cool it should look cool and modern, this one looks like it was found in a dumpster.[/QUOTE] The control panel sometimes teleports with it because its either to close to the rings or you didn't weld them to eachother. Read the Info and watch the videos. Cat Hasn't replaced the model yet either because he is creating one now, or he's waiting for someone else too. ( I hate spelling. )

I have a quick question. I'm trying to make the panel, how do i make so the buttons light up when you press them? Should the buttons be created as a single model or with the panel?

You either make different skins, or you use something called submodels which is apparently different.

[QUOTE=Catdaemon]I do not have Ori rings, I've said I'll add them when someone gives me models.[/QUOTE] I got PM'ed by Portunes who (or his friend) is working on the Ori rings. It was before you released your versions so you may ask him. They already did the rings but their polycount needs to get reduced (They did it for C4D or 3DSMax can't remember which)

If you want to do it avon's dhd style it'd limit the number of addresses and its usability horribly.
