Elevator Kit (simple, modular)

What began as a custom closed elevator became a simple modular elevator kit. It turned out to be an odd test project of sorts to see if it could work :)
Anyway. Hope you can use it for something.



The bundle consists of 5 models for you to put together in any way you want.

The Elevator_Lift model uses the same types of animations as the standard in-game elevators and has three stops. Bottom (bot), mid, top.

Stand still at bot
Stand Second still at mid
Stand Third still at top
Death goes from bot to mid
Death Second goes from mid to top
Death Third goes from bot to top
Birth goes from mid to bot
Birth Second goes from top to mid
Birth Third goes from top to bot

A nice side effect is that you can use the individual pieces to whatever you want really.

And here is a small demonstration video:

Seems to be working well enough... though personally, i'd just use the platform and script its movement rather than using a matrix of animations.
Thanks for the comments everyone.

4.25/5.
Would be really neat to have something that actually drags the platforms up and down (chain, rolling stuff, something).

This was the initial thought. But as the "project" shifted from a single static elevator to a modular I had to keep things simple. I do have a draft for a roof and what you describe, so I might update the bundle later on.


*watches the video* that is some funky music xD in a good way
the model is very nice, but.. what if we now want a metal or marble version? :xxd:
Damn, that's so cool :3
I hope you will try additional versions of it (metal, bone, magic versions)

So yes. If I get around to it there will come a metal version also. And the whole bundle might be updated with more interesting models.
This turned into a test project.

I had a more sci-fi elevator in my mind as well. Puh it already sounds like a lot of work :p
