How to place a link to webpage inside a map?

[Mapper1]

Does anyone remember how to put a link to a web page inside a map?

I seem to recall a couple of old unreal maps where if you activated a certain actor class object (like a teleporter or transporter I think) it would act similar to a redirect and pop open a web page in your browser.

Sound familiar?

Hell no , sorry.

That's gonna require some coding skills. It would need a trigger actor, then when the player hit the trigger, the code would tell UT2k4 to minimize and pull up FireFox.

What if the person dosnt have Firefox? then it will probably crash when it tries to open something that dosnt exists.

If anyone puts something like this into a game (especially Unreal games), they should be beaten, shaved, & kicked into the street during rush hour.

IMNSHO :mad:

you can beat them, but i'd be impressed with the fact that they could do this. (even though it is pointless)

well, i say FF, because everyone should be using it. Although you would really want to probably set it to default browser or IE for saftey.

I thought just adding a web-url to the URL field in the teleporter properties would cause all that
