vorelliwiseau Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Question: How do I place flames that block the player character from reaching an NPC? Explanation: I've laid out an interior level that has the hero entering a supposed burning factory to save some trapped people. I figured I'd place a fire extinguisher at the start and have him foam his way through each of the arson victims. Is there a way to add fires like that? Basically, I'm looking for something like the 'firebombing Denise's house' level in SA. I suppose I could just replace it with a time limit and some arsonists, but I'm just curious. Thanks!

uShield Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 No, fire seems to crash DYOM. but if you somehow manage to place it, you can add invincile barrier. But thats my secret xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vorelliwiseau Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 I'll keep that in mind. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_GDF Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 You can do it but it's really common that DYOM crashes when you put a "fire object". I made it one time and it worked but 9 of 10 times it crashes! So i don't recommend it, you should put an explosion (it creates fire sometimes) or make a character (enemy) that throw molotovs LOL!

vorelliwiseau Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 I tried Martin_GDF's suggestion to have an explosion, but it killed my guy straight away. But the Molotov suggestion worked great! True, you'll end up with a lot of dead actors, and you'll have to place them in the right segments so you get a decently burned up room, but all in all it's a handy compromise. If anyone stumbles across this topic with the same question, I recommend taking this route. Thanks, Martin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_GDF Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 You're welcome man! I'm always helping xDDD I already made a mission with guys throwing molotovs, and it worked xDDDDD Obviously you must place them in a way that they don't get killed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
