Use target weld! Click the first vert and weld it with the second vert.

Duplicate edges or duplicate faces.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like you have just planes sticking out of another planar surface?
That's bound to give errors.

Not entirely true. I've made many a map using only quads. Infact, the better way to make a map is to make it completely in quads, then convert to editable patch before going to mesh and exporting, then after the export is done, undo until you're back in poly mode wherein everything is back to quads. CE will automatically triangulate, and occasionally making triangles to set the bends on certain quads, but it isn't required to do so.

As for the overly complex, that's entirely variable on the poly count. I have a custom modeled Halo reach frigate as a BSP, it's ~20k polys and doesn't have an issue, even with how absurdly complex it is

Im beginning to think I completely wasted my time with my currently half baked halo map creation series/thing.

I dont like this:



Good 3ds max cliffs (terrain with cliffs. Still wip so,dont bother me FLANKER):

And it's very easy to recreate the forerunner,human and covenant bases. Some usefull tuts:

Use these textures for the clifs:

Ground should be more than just a grass texture

You didn't. It was very helpful for my whatever_project.l33t

No its pretty much the sum of wastage.

My whole motivation was to make things easier to understand which I pretty much failed at.

O well.

Well aside from how easy it was to understand, I did.
So thanks.

Oh god halonimator...those are just awful. Just awful.

Stop being jelly bro. Them 2 bit textures need to be in spv3.

Did he just change the resolution of the texture to make it high res? Because that's what it looks like......

I just downloaded the textures from spiral graphics.

they look like textures from half-life

Half life rips confirmed.

Half-Life 3 confirmed.


But really, those textures have no equal in atrocity.

Try to do this.

Do what? Waste triangles on a skybox?

You need to learn how to unwrap your uv's btw.

Why?



Better?

All I see is a bunch of relaxed islands.

:/

It would be nicer to see a non wireframe render of your model complete with a neutral background.

But hey I wish my cat could fly so I won't hold out much hope.

For a reason, I assume?

Exercise:
Try to atach many boxes to a simple bsp, then try to import it to halo. When you finish this try it again but with bases and more complex terrains.

Download this:

it has many usefull tutorials.

Maybe, some day. When life decides to look the other way.
