whats the cog that lets you shoot rail dets out from ghosts and see it on a camera?
2001-04-16, 12:18 PM #1
i have been lookin for a cog which is a mix of shooting out rail detenators from a ghost position and the camera cog. i have seen it on levels and when i extract the cogs and put them in my level, there is no place to put the camera thing. i dont know how to do it. its like you see a video camera angle of a room and see the rail dets being shot.

add a 'ghost' into the level, get the thing number, use it with the cog when it says 'thing' or 'ghost' or'camerapos' or whatever...
Hey, I'm here! But who cares?

your lucky i had a bit of free time on my hands. This cog set your camera and then shoots out raildets and then waits a sec shoots out more and waits a sec shoots out more. Its kind of cool more effective than most. I have also made it so the dets can drack a short distance. If u don'r like any of my add-ons just tell me and i can take them off. PLease give me a little credit. Oh yeah and if u need anymore trap cogs just e-mail me potocog@hotmail.com

i have talked long enough here code just copy it and save it as a .cog (duh)

thanks for the cog. i probaly wont be realising my level because i made it for me and my friend to play. even if i did release it, id get bad ratings because i did a terrible texturing job. i just wanted to get it done fast so i sped through it and a lot of the walls have the same texture.
anyway thanks again for the cog.
