ACZ Rope Hangs

[Fawfulfan]

How do I make those ACZ Rope Hangs? Can someone provide a step-by-step guide?

use the zoom tube waypoints (o, to whatever to determine the way you want to go. other than that, you can just copy and paste the sectors and change that tags

I tried to duplicate one of the Rope Hangs in ACZ, but it doesn't work. Can you guys figure out what's wrong with it?

could it be that the zoom tube paramaters are too far away?

"Too far away?" What do you mean? Physical distance doesn't count as long as the parameters are tagged to the right sectors.

 

[verifiaman]

you sure? it could be that it was too far away to be recognized

The control sector that contains your rope hang parameters should have its parameters lindef lined up with the x-axis (horizontally). Right now they're lined up with the y-axis (vertically). The vertical component of those parameters define the sequence of your zoom tube waypoints.

Check again how the rope hang parameters in ACZ are drawn for clarification.

The concept of making zoom tubes (making rope hangs is very similar to this) in a level, for me, was a very difficult concept to grab just by looking at the official levels. But when looking at any example of how zoom tubes were made, you have to consider every aspect related to the zoom tube.

Thanks! It works now!
