creating portals

Post by pdhart »

Hi,

Can any one tell me how to create my own start and finish portal. I've read alot about portals in the forums but can not find any info on how to create your own.
Your help would be much appreciated.

Kind Regards

Paul.

First you need to go into the World Editor.
Then in the top left hand window click on the Object Tools (House) icon.
In the window immediately below select the track infrastructure (signal) icon.
Now you can either scroll down until you find Marker - Portal or press M to get there quicker.
Place your portal and place the gizmo on the relevant bit of track.
If you need to place a gizmo on multiple tracks keep the left mouse button pressed as you do it and place as many gizmos as you need.
