[NEED HELP] How to create warpzones? (solved)

#1
Question 
I am a little confused about the text. Could you please make an example of a map and screenshots? Please. I will give a rating for the correct answer.
My maps:
CTF: Trident_ctf, Moon terror;
DM: Checkfriend, Last man standing remix (ctf);
Duel: tempullit, X air walker;
Kota-dooM: Kota-dooM, Kota-dooM4 (-2);
Race: Map packs;
Special: Triangle, Mid space 'em.

You can check out my other maps here.

What about mapping do you know?
First I'd like to asses where I'd have to start explaining.

But else I'd say open some maps who got them right and reverse engineer the stuff. That way you can learn best.
Erbium for example got one and the .map is included.
Note that one surface of each warpzone had a special warpzone texture. And if you press N while having selected one you can see an entities properties.
Target and Targetname have to be the same on 2 warpzone entities for them to work.

Also if you press N on those you get an explaining text in that menu for every entity there is.

I did everything according to your words.
But crash:

Steps to creating a warpzone:
  1. Create a brush which is at least the size of a player, bigger is better, i think it has to be at least 64 (?) units deep
  2. Make sure it is all painted the purple caulk texture, and then apply the yellow/blue texture to the face that you want to enter the warpzone through.
  3. Copy the brush to make sure that the second warpzone is identical in size. Locate the copy wherever you want to have it.
  4. Now you need to link both warpzones to each other. This is done with the target and targetname tags. Warpzone 1 needs to have its taretname set to WZ1 (example) and its target set to WZ2, with the second one having a WZ2 targetname and a WZ1 target. These can be also linked automatically by using ctrl-k. To do so, you need to select the firs warpzone and then the second one, and pres ctrl-k. After that, you deselect everything and then select the second warpzone and then the first one and click ctrl-k again. This should set their targets and targetnames automatically.
This instruction set should hopefully help you.
Here is an test map i have done in the past to figure out how they actually work :

Almost.
I'd suggest making it deeper to compensate for lag etc.
The textures are common/trigger on the 5 unused sides and common/warpzone on the side you want to enter/exit. (on each warpzone)
You only need one of both warpzones to have the target and the other the targetname... they have to be identical tho.

Ah ok, you don't need to double link them, I retested that now.

Here is a map that definitely works:
