I did everything the tut said.
I still dont get metal sounds for doors ??

As I know, it goes like this.

With the door selected, get the entity window up and type
...key type
...value 1

right???

Type "type" in key, type "1" in value, click Enter
What kind of entity did you make the door?
Does the door open & close okay? Just no sound?
Are you using spdevmap?

Its a rotating door.
It opens and closes just fine.
I used the default speed in movement.
Compiling, I'm using normal vis, fast light.
It's multiplayer map, if thats what spdevmap means?

Do I have to have just the door selected without the origiin brush, or does that matter??

I remember trying it both ways, when I first noticed a few weeks ago. I forgot about it till now.

Maybe I will try other sounds, see how it goes.

origin brush and door brush need to be selected when creating the func_door_rotating
the origin is the pivot point for the rotation of the door

but thats shud be fine if ur door is workin right.

theres a key for sounds(sound i think) an the the value is the pathname but i dont know any more than that coz ive never used it (i think the info may be in the misc_models entity not to sure if it can be used anywhere but dont c y not)altho for the basic door u shudnt need this

I just tried other sounds for my door. They sound fine.
It looks like type 1 (metal) doesnt work.!!

I'm using type 5 ( iron/jail) its metal creaking so its just perfect.
