How do i make moving platforms, that go side to side and forward & Backwards..???
Also how do i make if possible waterfalls and Floating Lava's

1 other question, im using Barrle fire/
maps\mp\mp_barrel_fx
the fire works ok, , bu i want to add a larger ground fire. ive seen this
firelp_large_pm.efx
but when i add it, i get errors,left right and center and it screws up my map compleatly
how do i add this to my map as a ground fire in radiant, what scripting do i need to do,??? when iadd it do i do it as Script/origin
KEY :Origin/ Value: LargeFire ??? Do i do this,? Do i need to add someing in my FX Script Files..>>>????

Also how do i make it kill the player if landed on fire, i see there is a kill in radiant tools, do i add this over the fire,if and when i get it working.???

I want this map to be one of my best maps to play on with many kinds of jumps, platform included, many bounce jumps, i even want a fire jump if possible to to jump on a row of fires, (LOL) but have sertan fires that kill to.

all help would be of use and i be gratefull for ANY HELP..

well. creek has a good waterfall, i might go look in files, if theres something looking like it.

And for moving platforms
Just make a script with moveto.
You might want to make some origins and have the platform move to those origins.
