Custom Door Mods

Post by Neikun »

Hey guys, was playing some dungeons and I thought to myself, couldn't I use the GMT to apply the iron door texture to an upward sliding door for those times where it's impossible to put them into a hallway?
Yes. Yes I can!
I thought about Cromcrom's The Lost Continent as I was making this.

You can make it suitable for the temple by changing the doorframemodel string to
doorFrameModel = "assets/models/env/temple_door_frame.fbx",
Make sure you don't use the wide doorframes, because it will clip with pull chains.

Wooden and ornament doors as double doors: http://grimrock.nexusmods.com/mods/48/

Also, could someone test these to make sure they work in more than just my dungeon?

Also, also, Should I convert this page into the Custom Door Thread?

I really like the idea of having the option to make these open vertically like that, nice! But I need to append my video notes on that part, because you don't have to put the side sliding ones in a hallway - just one side of them has to be a hallway, and you turn around the door to be facing that side.

But if you want it to be just along a wide room on both sides, then your solution is the only way (unless someone models a very thin door that can completely fit inside the walls)

I think next I'm going to work on wooden doors that slide into the wall next, for flavor sake.

And you may want to play with secret door sliding sideways.

You raise a very good idea.
I think, however I might only be able to do a wall that opens like a sliding door, however. (without getting into animation)

EDIT: I have successfully made a door that slides into the walls like the iron door does.
I would like to see doors that sink into the floor.

I think this is going to look really good with Ornament doors.

EDIT: Indeed it does.

EDIT: Looking at secret door capabilities.
Using a wall texture in its place makes for all kinds of clipping.
This is due to it needing a frame.

Are you still using high temple model instead of regular temple wallset?
