i have doors in my maps you can unlock With a key!! It is possible you just have to know howOriginally Posted by Sabotur Go to original post![]()
Thats quite a bold prediction considering the games not even out yet!Originally Posted by CoryTrevrSmokes Go to original post
Ps highly detailed textures are possible in dreams! And large open worlds are possible too! The dreams engine has allot of optimization tools built in to the engine for mappers to use. I will find some videos of these things and post the links for you to check out.
You can turn the light off again from a different 'light switch' trigger volume. You have a trigger volume to turn on the light in the first room, then a volume by the doorway leading to a second room, turning on the second room's light and turning off the light in the first room.Yes I already have a trigger volume around some lamps with a script to switch them on as well as a sound of the switch once you walk up to them. (Can;t switch them off again mind you).
Sorry for the overkill with the image, but I'm more visual oriented when it comes to learning...
p.s. I'm wondering what this 'elevator leaver' is. I haven't found anything when searching 'elevator', 'leaver or 'lever'
Yea thats pretty simple scripting.
I mean it doesn't toggle. For a table lamp, you don't switch it on and off from a distance. With the scripts you can walk up to a table lamp and make it appear that you have switched it on, but you can;t walk up to it again and switch it off. Unless I am missing something. You can't stand next to a light switch and toggle it repeatedly.
Working doors from the doors FC5 assets under the doors and windows section or doors that look nothing like doors?Originally Posted by sly6276 Go to original post
any dynamic door from the far cry 5 doors and windows section! The doors can be unlocked from both sides and can allso be locked from both sides aswell, there is nothing visible to see either! the doors can be locked or unlocked after picking up the key! And once you have picked up the key an objective marker will become visible at the door lock/handle area! And once you have reached the door after picking up the key the objective marker will disapear!Originally Posted by Sabotur Go to original post
Ps the key allso has a glowing orb at the exact location of the key witch can be customized to what ever colour and brightness you wish! Its just going to be difficult to show you how to do it because i have no way of getting a video from ps4 to the forum as i dont have a youtube accout or twitch or anything like that! Im just trying to figure out how to make a tutorial in pictures and words! I have more designs for the community over the next few weeks!
Ps why would i make doors that dont look like doors? Just because you cant ’make a door that locks doesn’t mean no one else can! So please dont patronize me
here are some images of the finished product! as you can see there is nothing visible and the door is locked! once you pick up the key the door will be unlocked! the door can be locked by using any trigger!

Sly, Dreams looks great I hope it goes pop, but there is limits to map making. I started mapping this year after spending 5 years learning how to draw like Syd Mead, Ralph Mcquarrie and Joe Johnson from Star Wars fame and I still can't get a 5 star map. lol and I still have like another 5 years to go to get good at drawing like Syd Mead who has been drawing for over 60 years. And most of the good mappers here have been making maps since FC2 so they are most likely good at art on paper and canvas. My nephew grew up on Minecraft he could probably make a good gameplay map but he has no idea who Syd Mead is so his lighting and use of textures in creative color schemes would be off, so by the time he got good at drawing Dreams 2 would already be out.
I predicted Spider man could be beaten in a week and Red Dead 2 wouldn't take me away from FC Editor as it is only one map which Far Cry 5 pretty much already covered with the open mountains, fishing and hunting.
If they gave us unlimited budget in FC Editor it would take us like 3 years to make a full game and by then FC7 would be out so our gameplay would never catch up to the new textures. I think Dreams will have a similar limit
I notice they didn't have an Editor for FC Primal, and FC 4 was on ps3 and ps4 so I wonder if they like to drop editor at the end of current gen to promote old games like Blood Dragon and Black Flag Assets in Editor and release the copyright on the current gen's textures like they don't care if we have full access to the current textures and assets because they are already working on textures for new games for ps5 to be released in 3-5 years.
Cory, yeah creating levels with high detail will be possible, but it will involve a lot of work and it will take a while to learn all the tools! And like you said you would have to be good at art , as making textures will require some artistic skill. When i first get dreams before i publish anything i will be making high quality assets for the community to use, just to get my name out there while i learn the tools! Luckily i have a music studio too, and from what they say i can connect my instruments to the ps4 an make anything i want! To me this is the stuff of dreams! Again no pun intended! Ha ha, its just a shame the devs at ubisoft dont get the freedom to give us what the would like too but hopefully that will change for future far cry titles but i’m not to sure if it will? but i hope so. If we had those kind of tools in far cry it would probably be unbeatable for quite a while ! Hopefully the next editor will be brand new using the new game engine, which would allow the devs to build a much better editor! Cory did you know ubi are making a new avatar game? And it will be made with a new engine.
I think I read about the Avatar game a few weeks ago, funny enough I found the Avatar art book recently at a dollar store for 5 bucks.lol
It's too bad FC5 didn't come out on the switch it would have been fun to make maps with the free hand controllers. So you could move around the room and paint terrain more easily. Having touch screen mobile access to editor would be great too.
