Patch texturing problem

Recommended Posts

Hi.

First I would like to say that Dark Mod looks like a very good mod, and I really enjoyed Thiefs' Den. :wub:

After finishing it I have been experimenting a bit with DarkRadiant using the contents from Thiefs' Den. When I learned what patches are, I wanted to create a curved ceiling in a small hallway using a patch. So I created an "End cap", inverted it and then used "Cap Selection" to make an "Inverted Endcap".

The texture on this Inverted Endcap then gets messed up like this picture shows: http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k289/Jes...tchProblem2.jpg

Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I cannot get that texture to look right no matter what I do.

Thanks in advance.

You'll find that DR's texturing tools are frighteningly capable, once you learn them all. I don't think I know them all despite participating in the design process, and I'm not sure how complete the docs are at this time (especially for tricks, e.g., borrowing alignment from rotated brushes or proximity), but there's a lot of power in there.

I've been trying to do that for ever. Thank you.

I always assumed I'd taste like boot leather.

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
