Stairs!

Sang · 05-25-2006, 10:11 AM

I while ago I checked some FAQ for UnrealEd (the UT2k4 version, I think it's UnrealED 3.0 (?)), but I ditched the whole "I'm gonna use UED" idea because.. I couldn't make stairs, because it wasn't properly explained in the FAQ. I could position it right and give it the correct properties and stuff, but it didn't appear in the 3D-o-vision (

).

So now I'm just gonna ask it here - How to get those stairs to show up?

rebuild the geometry with the rebuild buttons on top in the editor. that should make any new geometry show up

Silly question but can you build a box and get it to show up?
What some people who are familiar with 3D packages miss is that UED is a giant chunk of lead that you must first carve stuff out of. so adding stairs as an "addative" brush won't do much until you cut a hole in the world to put the stairs into.

Yeah I can build a box, give it textures and align stuff - no problem

So now that I'm learning UED again I'm still having trouble with the stairs. Namely, I can't get the textures on. The builder brush (or whatever it's called) is yellow instead of red.. So urh, how do I get a texture on there?

So you opened the stair tool/options, moved the builder brush to where you wanted, and ADDED it? It sounds like you've SUBTRACTED it?

could be, yellow lines are for substracted geomitrie and blue for added, stairs should generally be blue.

i prefer to make stairs from static meshes though, more flexibility in a way, that, and i never could use the stair builder brush propperly
