A building that falls down on the ground and breaks down

[Lennard]

Hi there.

I wanna make a new singleplayer map, with an effect that you gotta place a bomb on a building, and when you trigger it, the bombs explode and the building falls down on the ground and breaks down. ( The same effect as in the first singleplayer map of Call Of Duty 2, where they place a few bombs on the building and it breaks apart in a couple parts )

Now I've been searching for the script of the SP map in CoD2, but I wasn't able to find it.

That's why I'm hoping someone here knows how to do it.

If you wanna see what I meant with the Cod2 Singleplayer map, here's a video of the gameplay.
Skip to: 7:17 for the part that I mean (ends when video ends)

Well, the building collapsing is probably an animation, but you can do it with brushes aswell, precache the rumble, make the building parts as seperate brushmodels(5 parts for example,for falling down like in the vid, but put together as one and then hidden+not solid). Then precache the smoke and explosions fx for the bottom of the building. Play your fx's along with the rumble, add some cool sound effects and move the parts down slowly.

by the way, I believe this is the script(the building exploding part anyway):

Code: Select all

I will try it out, thx alot for the replies!

[Lennard]

I quickly made 5 walls without any details, like doors and stuff. And made them all a script_brushmodel.

1st wall
classname: script_brushmodel
targetname: demo1
2nd wall
classname: script_brushmodel
targetname: demo2
3th wall
classname: script_brushmodel
targetname: demo3
4th wall
classname: script_brushmodel
targetname: demo4
5th wall
classname: script_brushmodel
targetname: demo5

and now ?

And now you script the animation. In vCoD, no animations are used in MP, and each building block must be individually made to look like it is breaking apart.
