bullet@Posted: Thu Aug 05, 2004 6:31 pm : make a small thin brush over the thing you want to climb, and then texture it with textures -> common -> ladder
Krygor@Posted: Thu Aug 05, 2004 7:03 pm : no func or special material 0_o

The "ladder" in "common" IS sort of like the special material. Just simply texture a brush with "ladder" and you can walk into it to climb it, nifty
bullet@Posted: Thu Aug 05, 2004 7:09 pm : the common -> ladder texture is the special material. You make your ladder or climbable surface (like if you want to be able to up a mossy wall). Then you make a brush with common -> ladder on it, that is the size of your ladder. Line the two up, and voila, whatever surface has that ladder material on it will be climbable.
You might get stuck at the top of the ladder, though. If you do and just sort of bounce up and down, then take the clipper tool and cut the corner off at the top so it's an easier slope for the player to get up.
Zanuff@Posted: Mon Aug 09, 2004 12:03 am : I created an under-the-floor thing, that you can get down, but not back up. Would you use ladder so the player can get back up? When I do there is a climbing-ladder sound that doesn't quite fit with what I'm trying to accomplish.
It's either can't get down or can't get up without having a ladder.

b0ksah@Posted: Tue Sep 14, 2004 8:42 am : You create your ladder ... with normal textures ..then you make a brush the size of your ladder and then cover your ladder with it ..this brush you give the ladder texture. The ladder texture is invisble in-game, it just controls the ladder "ability" ... you can basically place ladder textured brushes on a wall to make it climbalbe if you want. again ...the ladder texture control a game function ... it's not a visble or "solid" texture.

in mars city underground a zombie climbs up a ladder doesn't he? have a look at him, its most likely a script though
Domarius@Posted: Mon Nov 29, 2004 2:08 pm : Thanks. I will, but I'm almost certain it's another one of the many scripts that take them across glass windows, bending through stairs, etc.
PeppeJ@Posted: Sat Mar 15, 2008 5:00 pm : It is no Script it is a animation in the Zombie entity List
