[Help] Rotate .spr model
 

Hi, i'm trying to make something like throwing a thunder bolt using .spr as animate model. But how can i rotate the spr so it can lay down 90 degree. As you can see in the image the spr is stand up LOL.
Thank you.

Check the war3ft mod's code and look for thunder ultimate.

I don't think it use "env_sprites" entity for that, it just a TE_BEAM* temp entity.

Personally I would suggest to use Beam Entitites.

Simply create a beam with Beam_Create(const szSpriteName[], const Float: flWidth)
Set start and end origin with Beam_PointsInit(const iBeamEntity, const Float: flVecStart[3], const Float: flVecEnd[3])

And you can detect touch and everything to it.
That's how I did it on my "Tron Legacy' project.


Grtz,

Why do you want to use server sided entities anyway?

Re: [Help] Rotate .spr model
 

Because if you check his code,
you'll see he wants to detect players touching the beam.

Afaik the beam entities stock is bugged in that regard. I remember testing it a few years ago.

Well in the mods I use it, it works just fine.

-EDIT-
If you are going to make not-straight lines
you'll need to play with https://forums.alliedmods.net/showth...ht=beam&page=4 use touch check and the function Emp' made.

Use entity_get_vector to have it hold the whatever like aim.

The reason why i use env_sprite entity because i want an animated sprites that can travel, not instant vecStart and vecEnd origin.
