I haven't played that map so I don't know what they are like for sure, but it seems like a trigger_push would work.

, ok im testing with trigger_push, but havne't been successful in getting it to launch me, right now it just makes my screen shake. still trying..

edit: ok it works, thanks :burp:

doh, i can't get them to work like on bounce. when i step over it it makes the screenshake, and it wont launch me unless i jump. anyone know a way around this?

I might know how to do this too, but it might not work at all. Try putting some playerclip brushes (slanted upward slightly) all around the trigger_push. What I'm thinking is that when you fall off the playerclip brushes, the trigger_push will work since it seems to need some motion to start pushing you.

yea, forgot to bump my thread, but i msged the maker of bounce and he told me something very similar. thanks

Is trigger_push not avaliable in Source?

I would quite like to make some jump pads but can't find anything to do it with. It was trigger_push with HL1, anyone know the Source equivalent?

Edit: bugger, I meant to hit new thread.

i was thinking of some negative gravity entity. doesn't hammer offer such function? i´ll have a look.

No negative gravity.
