That would get pretty screwy if multiple people had the pp. Is there a way to make it so that only one of a specific decal can exist at a time?

You know me well, but i wasnt aware you played on my weapon-teles map.
Gota love them scripts :P

@ tyler - i can (slightly) memory hack and use other programing langauges, like VB, that do support said memory hacking. The real obstacle is that i use vista. And you will never be able to make it "shoot" teleports, the best you could do would be to "create" a instance of them in the scenario then get cords for exit and entrance down and move those cords to the place of impact. You will never be able create just a standard hack that will work on every map with out modifying the maps to have the needs things, among which is probably a named gun.

u might be able to do it in ce
i know kirby nearly did it
conure well done for doing it in ce

but

for pc it has to be mem hacking(unless conversion)
tyler u cant inject a meta over it etc as u said on first page

alot of people think patrickass and locke and beef are the only ones who i know how to do this
i know someone a very good hacker who has done one of these.
i nearly made one and it worked but was buggy
i was going to finish but i quit halo

A portal gun app probally wont be released as people can use it to cheat

But for ce its a gd idea as people have to have map
meaning they all get it

Teleporters aren't metas. They're just chunks of data in the scnr tag with a position, an enum for what type of data it is (flag, hill, teleporter entrance or exit etc...), a short value for team indexing and a dependency. Everything else is just eye candy (aka scenery).

When I say revising, I mean we are just cleaning the application up and making it a bit more user friendly.

I think we can agree that it can't be done like in Portal, though, where you literally can choose what end of a portal to shoot, and be able to see out of the other end of it.

I can't wait for an app to do this though, even crudely. :)

Actually, with a bit of coding I believe we can get it so you can choose which end to shoot. I'll need to talk to Pat about it but I think we can do it.
As far as seeing through them, fat chance in hell =P. The engine can't handle that.
