Ramp Slide

[o_chad muska]

In FF, do we have to press duck after a ramp slide ? (like in SD2 Ramp).

In HL TFC, there is a 'mapping trick' for removing that : doing a single block which contains the Ramp + Top platform. (it works for wall as well).

...yeah!

My sentiments, exactly.

I want to know that, because I'll start a map soon, and I have to know if I must use the 'mapping trick' or not. I can test this "bug" (being stick on the top of ramp, or on "acute/pointed wall") myself on HL2, but this "bug" appears when you have a high speed (HL2 is slower than TFC..). So, perhaps the mapping team have an answer...

perhaps you need to explain what you are talking about better so we have some clue?

FF isn't made yet, so we don't really know.

From my experience in our alpha there doesnt appear to be that lip clipping problem on ramps.

ok

So basically they fixed/tweaked/tuned the collision detection/geometry on the bsp brushes?

[o_chad muska]

probably.

On TFC we can have that :

I had this problem with a room under a ramp, each slide was stopped in the middle of it... I have to rebuild the room :p

(yeah this post is useless, only for memories ;) )
