I'm trying to make a spiral ramp, but it's coming out terribly. Anyone know how I could do this?
-
I haven't done this myself but to me a good solution would seem like creating small brushes and gradually rotating them horizontally by a small amount (5?) and increasing their height by an even smaller amount (1? 2?) and placing them near each other in a circle formation around a central cylinder, while cutting off the choppy edges of the small spiral ramp brushes. Wow, that was a lot of words. I need to go have a drink.
You smell bad, eiii. Like a dog took a crap on your face.
^^ THIS HAS BEEN ANOTHER EXCITING SNIPPET OF (joking! don't kill me mister eiii!) HIDDEN TEXT BY BUG.
(I hope that method actually works)

u cant talk in real sentences to me with out making fun of me why...........
-
Errr... that hidden text was really easy to see.
Also, that would be good, but I can't figure out how to clip a brush that's mildly curved at a downwards angle well - let alone rotate and align it well enough to make it seamless.
And Vinnie: What? No one's even mentioned you.
Edit: 1900th post. :D
-
My apologies. Blame it on those stupid color-changing post surrounding crapboxes from HELL! And I might make a video on it if you tell me what editor you're using (Most likely BSP, of which I know nothing about ;)
Congrats on your postcount, you spamming little noobcake, eiii-inator! :D
-
BSP. And that text was well hidden, but obviously placed. ;)

eiii i was talking to bug and bug ::)

Vinne, just for once, would you actually shut up and stop your whining little pity-party crap? I've yet to so much as mention you in this thread until you come in and start spamming your "woe-is-me" crap into every new topic here. Stop it. Just stop.
The dog-crap smell on you is so strong it doesn't even deserve to be called dog-crap. More like elephant-obscenity
-
was that last part to vinne? lol because vinne does smell bad, I mean whew! some stank on that boy
-
I applaud you, bug.
-
Hidden text is so lame.
-
Sooo... off-topicness. No more of that?
-
I will if he will! *points accusingly to the pity-party crapper*
And yes, TinMan, the last hidden text part was to Vinne.
-
You should never use rotations in small degrees like that (only in 90 degree increments). Your map will end up being a mess with misaligned brushes everywhere. You can do this with some fancy clipping planes. It may be challenging, but once you've done 90 degrees, you can just clone it and rotate.
-
That's great, but how do I do 90 degrees? :P
-
Make a spiral staircase and look at the sort of angles it has for 90 degrees and model the brush on that?
-
bug i will shut up if u stop making fun of me

bug i will shut up if u stop making fun of me
I've yet to so much as mention you in this topic before you started crying like the 11-year-old emotionally disturbed emo you are! Stop infesting every single post with your crap and actually try to learn something: if you shut up and stop posting spam, people won't hate you! Now stop whining or I'll call your mom and tell her you wet your pants again.
-
i suggest checking out the spiral stairs on seigecastle.bsp or zsiege.bsp and then going from there.
-
bug is mad beacuse an 11 year old is cooler than him
-
That's it, I'm going to lock this thread and start a new, MORE on-topic one.
Insults go in the Other Section. ;)
