hey guys

Working along in my map, and suddenly fill inverted caps (for archways) suddenly stopped working? It fills, however won't fill properly. It leaves ugly seams with the bevel patch. Never did that before. Why would it start doing that now?

Which DarkRadiant version are you using?

lol, i JUST fixed it literally 30 seconds after this post. For whatever reason they stopped working, I assigned the bevel patch AND the fill the same horizontal tessellations and it worked :P.

Which brings me to a new question! Handrails for open stairways! Ideas as to how to? Anyone have a cool model/prefab I could use?

Ah your with us Goldchocobo! Good. Welcome aboard.

 

Re: Angled handrails for stairs. Not really any available I don't think. You probably need to build your own. There is a T-shaped stone stair prefab with stone walls for handrails. Dunno if they are of any use. Do you mean literally just a handrail that would be attached to a side wall or a full angled side rail like a fence? You can look at models/architecture/handrails but they are kind of like metal scaffolding. Might be of use.

I mean an actual hand rail for an open air staircase - like a fence.

Eh, metal scaffolding definitely doesn't work. Guess I'll spend some time on a prefab.

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      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      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported.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 ?
