Description: PMDoors 1.1 By The_Cook
Installation: Open the zip file and drag the "Doors" folder into the "Style/Themed" directory within the your Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 installation. If you're using some fancy unzip program make sure that the option to preserve the directory hierarchy is enabled. Do not try to rename the directories
Usage: The doors are set up as Ride Events so that they can be triggered by a car passing. They can be found under the ride events button. Each door has three variants with 4, 6 and 8 second long animations. The opening and closing speeds are constant, it is the pause whilst the door is open that increases.
Known Issues: The animation sometimes jumps when the game engine tries to blend between the models at different detail levels
Set Info: The Small Print... The more observant of you will have noticed that we have cracked the animation structures. Whilst we are still working out how everything behaves the animation structures have to be generated by hand, hence the very simple animations used for the door pieces. Eventually the importer will be updated to handle animation import for 3d editors, but it is not a simple task and could take weeks, perhaps even months. In the meantime, please be patient. Rest assured that JonWil, Belgabor and I are all working quietly behind the scenes trying to improve the custom scenery lot! Do not ask us to produce animations for your pet park, we are primarily coders not animators, any requests made will fall on deaf ears. My thanks to JonWil, Belgabor their observations and support, also to Vodhin for providing a quiet place for us to discuss custom scenery generation.
