Help with eyeboss

[killjoy64]

Good morning all!

I have been having alot of problems with the eyeboss in a map im trying to make. I have it set that everytime this one control point is captured, eyeboss spawns. Everything works except when he spawns, he is in a spell version of himself (example here) after he spawns, he almost always spawns blue, and then disappears after a couple seconds.

How would i get him to spawn his actual form (example here)
Thank you in advance for anyone trying to help

Turn off smartedit and add a key named "teamnum" with a value of 5.

Turn off smartedit and add a key named "teamnum" with a value of 5.

What would i put that for?

I followed this tutorial, it has the entities i used. or do i put that in the prop_dynamic with the eyeboss model?

 

[Dr. Orange]

What would i put that for?

You put the keyvalues in the eyeball_boss entity you use as the template.

How are you exactly trying to trigger it to be awoken?

For example this is how i do it in my maps:

Create eyeball_boss entity. It doesnt exist by default, so you get odd looking view. You need to add few values to it:

Key: targetname
Value: eye_spawn
Click Add

Then add one more:

Key: teamnum
Value: 5
Click Add


Create point_template and name it eyeball_spawn and to Template1 you put eye_spawn.


Create logic_relay and name it relay_eyeball. To that output, you put "OnTrigger eyeball_spawn ForceSpawn" to their respective slots (My Output, Target Entity, Target input)

What happens here is, on trigger, your logic_relay will spawn point_template called eye_spawn and it spawns from the eyeball_boss entity location. So, make sure you trigger the logic_relay on point capture for this to work.

Also, i'm not sure if this is still required but you may need to add somewhere 2 entities, prop_dynamic models/props_halloween/halloween_demoeye.mdl and prop_dynamic models/props_halloween/eyeball_projectile.mdl - make sure they start disabled and place them anywhere on your map to cache the models up.

So i did what Dr.Orange said and added key teamnum at value 5 and it worked!!

I have eyeboss spawn when a point is captured. only problem is that he does not leave, the chat says monoculus is leaving in 10 seconds.

but after 10 seconds he does not leave, and i have the point set to reset every couple min (to have monoculus spawn every now and then.)

Create navigation mesh and it will leave.

EDIT

sv_cheats 1, nav_edit 1, nav_mark_walkable to anywhere in map, then nav_generate.

 

[killjoy64]

oh okay, i will run the map and let you know how it goes

 

[killjoy64]

so i type nav_generate in console when the map loads, it reloads the map but there isnt anything when i type nav_edit 1
Console output below
