Quick Object Question

#1 · July 25, 2011, 9:02 pm

Hi everyone, I have a quick question. I have been googling around all day trying to find this out without asking, but I've run out of options. What is the name of the object in Chapter 6: The Fall, Test Chamber 02 in Test Shaft 09 that flips/rotates a panel so that it is portal-able? Here is a screenshot of what I am talking about: http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/2169/flippingpanel.jpg Thanks all!

I dunno for sure, but I'm thinking it's a func_door_rotating with an ambient_generic for the sound. I don't know for sure though.

This probably. If it isn't it should be quite honestly.

Now with 100% more inline comments!

I'm sorry it took me so long to get back to you guys, but I wanted to thank you for your help! I ended up decompiling the map to find the name of the object and how it works.

if you have found the name of the prop, could you please share? I wanted to know what prop model is that as well.

I think it's a wheel prop_dynamic on the top and the bottom, with a func_brush in the middle. They are all parented to the same func_door_rotating, which rotates 180 degrees around the z axis when the button is activated. There is also an ambient_generic playing with it i'm guessing.
