Video Tutorials with Cannibal Shogun
Yo,
So a lot of people have been asking me how to do things in the map editor. Instead of trying to answer them all individually I've started making some video tutorials on map editing. You can check them out as well as videos of my maps on my YouTube page http://www.youtube.com/user/ShogunsCustomMaps
Basic Editing
This tutorial covers very basic use of the editor. Most of you probably don't need to look at this one but I wanted to make sure people who are totally new to the editor had a chance to catch up before I got into more complicated stuff.

Triggers
This one covers basic use of triggers.

Free Rotation Hinge
This one covers use of the free rotation hinge. The main example is the building of a basic cart.

Limited Rotation Hinge & Point to Point Tools
This one covers basic use of the limited rotation hinge & point to point tools.

Quickie • Elevator Up
By popular demand this is a short video showing the elevator I built on my track The Roads Home in the editor. Not a proper "how to" but should give you a good idea of how I did it.

If you haven't seen yet, I'm also doing new tutorials with each episode of Redlynx-TV on YouTube, so far these have mostly covered use of the DLC tools.
Episode 1 • Pistons
Basic use of the pistons (tutorial starts at 2:39)
Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsF9MpKf45s
Episode 2 • Crash the Driving Line
How to make a car crash the driving line (tutorial starts at 3:17)
Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fvRmwYtkmY
Episode 3 • Wind Forces
Basic use of the wind tools (tutorial starts at 4:37)
Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4BIJJhZ8dA
Episode 4 • Force Rotation Hinges
Basic use of the force rotation hinges (tutorial starts at 2:20)
Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3L_QdYwc1c0
Note: I'm not an expert. I learned to use the editor mostly just by using it. I'm sure there are different and/or better ways to do some of the things I talk about and if anybody has any further insight on anything I covered I'd love to hear it.
Re: Video Tutorials with Cannibal Shogun
Like I've said in some of the YouTube comments when you first put the videos up: really good and thorough tutorials. I am still awaiting the hinges tutorial http://forum.redlynx.com/forum/image...con_e_geek.gif

Re: Video Tutorials with Cannibal Shogun
I also wanted to ask if you took specific requests for tutorials? Meaning that if I wanted to know how to create moving mine cart or something along the lines of that, would you be able to respond to that inquiry?
Re: Video Tutorials with Cannibal Shogun
If you can tell me something useful about the point to point tool, I'll be happy http://forum.redlynx.com/forum/image..._e_biggrin.gif .

Right now I'm just trying to get out tutorials on the basic use of all the tools, however in my free rotation tutorial I build a basic cart so that should help you out. Once I finish doing the basic tools tutorials I'm willing to get into more specific stuff and would definitely choose my subjects based on feedback and requests.
Tutorials I have planned right now:
• Basic Physics
• Free Rotation Hinge
• Limited Rotation Hinge, Point to Point & Game Camera
• Lighting
My goal is to put out one or two a week and I think I should be able to sustain that until Modern Warfare 2 comes out http://forum.redlynx.com/forum/image...con_asleep.gif'm sure that will cut into my Trials time).
Note: I had some trouble with the footage I had for the other two tutorials I had ready to edit so I'm trying to re-do them sometime this weekend but I'm pretty busy so it could be early next week before I get another one posted.

you tutorials are the best
Re: Video Tutorials with Cannibal Shogun
The tutorial that freezes the explosion is so so awesome, I never thought of doing that and now I have hundreds of Ideas running rampant in my head.
Thanks for doing this, everyone appreciates it.
Can we expect some tutorials on the new Big Pack tools? I've got a decent knowledge of the existing tools but the new ones confuse me.
Re: Video Tutorials with Cannibal Shogun
Thank you Cannibal Shogun for making these awesome tutorials, they were a great help. Keep em' coming......
