Hey purple, could you perhaps make a vertical door? That slides up and down instead of left and right?
Just a little request, hope I'm not asking too much.

Done. :grin:

I didn't add a walkway or anything, as that would require reworking the sprites and I've gotta be somewhere soon. Thankfully, though there are some modding things in Cortex Command that are a lot of work, this isn't one of them. Didn't have to touch a pixel. :)

VerticalHeavyDoor.rte.zip

Extract to your CC directory, it will overwrite one file in your Maginot.rte but otherwise leave everything untouched. This requires the original rte to work, as it only includes what is absolutely necessary for the door.

It can be removed by reinstalling the original Maginot and overwriting the changed file. This will leave three extra bitmaps at the following paths:
  • Maginot.rte/Heavy Door/heavydoorvfg.bmp
  • Maginot.rte/Heavy Door/heavydoorvbg.bmp
  • Maginot.rte/Heavy Door/heavydoorvmat.bmp
Which can be deleted or left at your discretion, without the modified file they won't do anything. If you decide to delete them, make sure to delete the ones containing a V after door! Or, you can skip this whole step by just removing Maginot and reinstalling.

Enjoy. Try to squish a few clones for me.

Oh, and if Purple would like to out-do me by making a custom designed vertical door, be my guest. :grin:

Yes thank you Omni. This map is very very epic, like many things you do Purple. The new large door is quite useful too as the only other one was the one with that double sized bunker set, which were cool, but I like variety. Some one should make a giant double swinging door set like the double doors in base.rte.

I've been thinking about expanding our door options. With a little work, I imagine I could make something pretty effective. Expect more from me in the nearish future.

But now I'm hijacking Purple's thread. So back to Maginot. A fine scene, not anything too new, but more things we've seen before done extremely well. Except for the big door. That thing is totally pimp, and better than every other door I've seen. I made a modified version of this scene for myself with a slightly different underground structure. It has two vault doors. :grin:

Scene or not, this RTE is sticking with me for the doors for a LONG time. Unless something comes along to replace it. And it would have to be good to beat this baby. :wink:

The basis of the map was actually the door, he just needed some filler material.

Not sure why. I considered removing all the scene stuff and just keeping the doors. :lol:

No problem. Just making sure that Purple's amazing door truly meets its potential. :wink:

Thanks for Maginot, Purple!

Limit is purely subjective in conjunction with rules. It all matters if your necroing post contributes enough to not piss off the staff member who catches you.

Good to see the door is popular.

Jay ne concur pass.
The door does not match up with any other bunker piece, and the single hill/flat plain is a very nice design.
That being said, door is still awesome.
