Make it the same as a lockable key...but change the graphic to make it a door. or...you could have a super big chest lying on its back and when you open it the lid goes beneath the ground revealing a chamber(inside of the chest) or a portal to somewhere you have created

INDIVIDUALITY - Always remember that you are special and unique, just like everybody else!
SOME PEOPLE - Are just like Slinkys. They aren't really good for anything but you can't help but smile when you push them down the stairs.

maybe use a darkwood stone cutscene,
make it so the breakable door when you tab or hit it, it turns in to a unbreakable door like the one in rose cottage maybe with some effect.
just an idea, it may not work and probably won't
do you think johndoe will allow this one to be published?
i think johndoe regrets that he didn't delete the old one.

For lockable doors you could do the bowerstone north type thing where you have to be renown enough to be let in.

It's not renown, it's a proximity-triggered cutscene that pushes the Hero away from the door. If you kill the guard at the door, the cutscene doesn't activate and you can walk right through.
The only practical way that I can think of for lockable doors would require a cutscene to be opened or closed. Or at least switched from a regular door that opens on proximity to a door that doesn't do anything.

Maybe a boolean dependent cullis gate that leads you to the next area?
|
"Boolean-dependent" cullis gates? And what would that be, exactly? Cullis gates done proper only take you to regions you've already been that have a cullis gate. But if you haven't been there, it can't take you there. And if you're just going to make a dummy cullis gate with a standard teleporter on top, why not just make a standard teleporter?

There is a way to do cullis gates, I just don't understand what is meant by "boolean-dependent" cullis gates.| nicomon wrote on Wed, 31 March 2010 19:03 |
It isn't possible to do that without using, at the very least, very advanced hex editing. However, they could put a region exit/entrance on a cullis gate object with an effect, making it look like you went through the cullis gate to the next area. They could also imitate the scripts from the darkwood cullis gate quest. I'm not sure if that last one is possible, as I don't know whether those scripts are embedded in the quest scripts or not, but if they aren't then it could work. Personally, I don't think they would add something like that to Conquest, though.
|
Bah, copying those scripts is easy, it's just a standard teleporter and even if it isn't, one could be made to look and act just like it.

What I meant is that it only is activated once a boolean variable is set to true after beating the boss or whatever.

The point of lockable doors is to be able to go to a region but not be able to get in a certain house/cave/etc. Making you have to gain a key by fighting a boss/digging/fishing/etc to gain entry to the next part of the 'story'.
|
I had done a lot of thought on this. What I finally decided that the best way would be to make it a chest. Chest lids open on a hinge, so the idea was to model a door that would use the chest lid bone, so that when it opens in-game, it would look like a door opening. You'd have to place it sideways but it would work.
But I missed one major problem, the collision meshes for chests, unlike doors, stay the same after the chest is open. So even though the chest door would look open, it would still be closed. This was very disappointing.| battery000 wrote on Thu, 01 April 2010 00:03 |

That makes more sense, but that is impossible. There aren't "open after JoB fight" scripts. And to do that would mean you'd have to have quests. There is a way though...
The paintings in the Fresco Dome, they only show up after a certain quest. They're all in their own quest sections and these dummy quests are activated upon meeting certain conditions. For example, the Hero escapes from the prison, the painting of him in prison is now at Fresco Dome. So, you put a door that does nothing in the NULL section, and you put a door that goes somewhere in the same quest section as the painting, that door will only show up after you escape from the prison. An interesting one is the good/bad epilogues, where if you're evil the evil painting shows up and if you're good the good painting shows up, so these can be used to make alignment-specific scripts. But again, that requires quests to be used.

What about the secret bookcase bone in place of the chest one? Or possibly the script?

No, that relies on quests to open too.
