vertex tool

[Reaktor4]

this is buggy, right?

 

[DrDevin]

No THIS is buggy:

It works for me (both vertex tool and buggy).

 

[Limpet]

Haha

As far as I know the vertex tool is fine. Dunno about the Beta though.

 

[63]

Vertex works great!

 

[Shinobi]

vertex and clip tools are all you'll ever need for BSP manipulation

 

[GonzoBabbleshit]

it's buggy for the beta version. otherwise it's fine, and has been for ages

 

[Reaktor4]

Well, can someone explain whats going on here..

Im not using the beta. Oh and i am a mapping noob so this is probably my fault.

 

[Kyorisu]

Are you trying to make some kind of impossible shape or what?

 

[Reaktor4]

Its just a block with one corner stretched upwards and a dip in the middle, like this

But hammer is flipping out

 

[Shinobi]

that's an invalid shape, chop the block into 2 brushes so that it isnt convex

 

[Reaktor4]

Did you mean concave?

Ok new problem, with the displacement thing this time

everything looks normal

then when i zoom in....

Why does this happen?

 

[Limpet]

Concave brushes are invalid.

As for the displacemnt problem. I have no idea. Do the lines move when you get closer and further away or does it just snap to that position at a certain point?

 

[63]

Use 2 brushes as Shinobi said.

 

[Limpet]

Oh, is that the invalid brush turned into a displacement?

 

[Reaktor4]

Oh, is that the invalid brush turned into a displacement?

nope

Do the lines move when you get closer and further away or does it just snap to that position at a certain point?

The lines dont actually move, just new ones appear when i get to a certain place.
I think it is caused by me accidentally selecting the bottom surface and pulling it through the top surface.
Just have to disable the select mask and be more careful i guess.
thanks for the help guys
