Grimrock does not actually have any concept of a "wall". There are just solid tiles, obstacles, and doors. You cannot get the behaviour of a solid tile with an object, but obstacles are generally close enough.
It sounds like in this case, you want door behaviour but don't care about opening it. In this case, use forest_ruins_wall_01 as a guide:

Code: Select all

defineObject{
	name = "forest_ruins_wall_01",
	components = {
		{
			class = "Model",
			model = "assets/models/env/forest_ruins_wall_01.fbx",
			staticShadow = true,
		},
		{
			class = "Door",
		},
		{
			class = "Occluder",
			model = "assets/models/env/forest_ruins_wall_01_occluder.fbx",
		},
	},
	placement = "wall",
	editorIcon = 160,
	automapIcon = 88,
	minimalSaveState = true,
}

Simply add a DoorComponent to the object, and make sure your model has a node named "gate" with an appropriately sized bounding box and an origin at 0,0,0. There is no need to add an explicit ProjectileColliderComponent unless you f*** up your bounding box, doors are already projectile colliders.

Alternatively, don't change the object and just put a solid wall tile behind it in the editor instead, since the two models you mentioned are already one-sided anyway so you can never let the player see them from behind...

Edit: If you add a DoorComponent without having a "gate" node, as THOM is telling you to do for some absolutely unfathomable reason, then almost nothing will work. The object will still stop the party from passing through, but you will need to add your own, EXPLICITLY SIZED, ProjectileColliderComponent, ItemConstraintBoxComponent, etc. You will also receive console warnings. It is much better to have a working gate node instead.

I just noticed this :

SpoilerShow

So it seems the dungeon builder is not very friendly with elevation. Is there a way to redefine it ? Or should I work with redefined tiles to avoid the dungeon wall drain placed just over an open path ? Also, when seen from the opposite side, the ceiling has an open wall so even a normal wall would not fit. Can I make it automatically more logical or should I place elements manually every where this happens ?

When using that tile you need to place the dungeon_wall_height_difference object on all ceiling elevation transitions.

@minmay: would have been nicer if you just had written

Hello, I been having trouble getting this monster to work properly from the asset pack2.
Everything seems to work fine but it never hits me, always misses. Maybe someone can help me.
Couldn't find lizard sounds so I'm using turtle.

Have you added the animation definitions?

Code: Select all

    defineAnimationEvent{
       animation = "assets/animations/monsters/ice_lizard/ice_lizard_attack.fbx",
       event = "attack",
       frame = 10,
    }

    defineAnimationEvent{
       animation = "assets/animations/monsters/ice_lizard/ice_lizard_attack_left.fbx",
       event = "attack",
       frame = 10,
    }

    defineAnimationEvent{
       animation = "assets/animations/monsters/ice_lizard/ice_lizard_attack_right.fbx",
       event = "attack",
       frame = 10,
    }

    defineAnimationEvent{
       animation = "assets/animations/monsters/ice_lizard/ice_lizard_walk.fbx",
       event = "footstep",
       frame = 10,
    }

    defineAnimationEvent{
       animation = "assets/animations/monsters/ice_lizard/ice_lizard_walk.fbx",
       event = "footstep",
       frame = 21,
    }

    defineAnimationEvent{
       animation = "assets/animations/monsters/ice_lizard/ice_lizard_turn_left.fbx",
       event = "footstep",
       frame = 10,
    }

    defineAnimationEvent{
       animation = "assets/animations/monsters/ice_lizard/ice_lizard_turn_right.fbx",
       event = "footstep",
       frame = 10,
    }

Nope, Thanks

I have another question. I use to use this glass door mod from Grimrock 1, Are models and texture from Grimrock 1 compatible with 2?. Can't get to work. Here the web page from nexus.
I know codes have to be tweaked.

models: yes
textures: diffuse and specular maps, yes, but not normal maps; they have a different format that you need to convert to.

How do I check if a alcove has an item with a specific trait, e.g. I want to check if an alcove surface has a two-handed sword placed on surface. The traits would be "two_handed" and "sword".
