dreamstation Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 Can you vertex edit in JKRadient or not? Also how do i make a cylinder that is hollow, because when i try making a cylinder, i get the cylinder but it wont go hollow? Thanx
Tems Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 to vertex edit you press V, but be careful when editing brushes. brushes are easy to screw up w/ vert editing. to make a hollow cylinder you have to make a cylinder inside another one and the inside one you have to invert the matrix (under the patch menu). thats should do it for you. -Tems
Cmdr. Antilles Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 Select a brush or patch mesh, and pres V. Then, drag the vertices around. And, you actually have to 'thicken' the cylinder to get that 'hollowed' look. That's if i understand what you're going for.
Cmdr. Antilles Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 No problem. Tems' way of getting a hollow cylinder works too. It's exactly what JK2R does for you when you use the 'thicken' command.
dreamstation Posted April 25, 2002 Author Posted April 25, 2002 Thicken command? Can you please go over it again, i am fairly new to mapping for JK2 so it all a bit over my head!
Tems Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 try the key command of Control/Ctrl + T and that should thicken it. it asks you by how many units (youll see when i you get there what i mean). Experiement with units until you find one you like. thicken is also in a menu but i dont recall what the menu name is. thats motor memory for you. anyway give that a shot. -Tems
dreamstation Posted April 25, 2002 Author Posted April 25, 2002 Thanx, hey Tems, do you have MSN messenger or ICQ? It would be a great help to me if i had you on my contact list, so wheneva i get into trouble i can just ask you there!
Tems Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 dreamstation et al: yes. ive got icq, aim and msn. i also don't mind people using that to ask me questions. im on a little less frequently now that i dont have a fast internet connection, but when i'm on i'm available to help. my one request is that all tech questions be limited to ICQ. my number is 614575 (yeah im an old one). knock yourself out. but not literally. -Tems
