DonDustin: could be useful

great thanks alot add it to a pack

when it is approved I'll add it to the pack

ah ok well im sure it will get approved. thanks again.

Approved. Nice model. Might be very useful for the mapping contest ^^,

I seriously think you should make this into a model with 3x3 such squares.. using a billion of those small ones is just such a waste of doodad space.

Hi,
very nice model, it helps me to solve my less-tile-problem

but i have a problem with them too:

when they reach the edges of the screen, they getting cut off.
So it doesnt look good with a moving Kamera.

Does anybody know this problem?

Here is a screen: There are actually doodads at the bottom too, but they get lost

If they are doodads, you have a problem with model extents.
Just open the model in magos model editor (see tools section), then go model properties, and increase the model extents (if they are positive9 and decreas some (if they are negative), then save it.

Hi,
thx for ur answer!

But i wasnt able to manage it.

the minimal and maximal extens in this model are 0, 0, 0
i tried the minimal with -100 and the maximal with 100, or something equal.

What would you suggest to change?

thx

Well.. just set all extents to min -100 and max 100, save it, reimport it, and it should work.

Hm.. sry, it doesnt work...
Ive done it like you told me and regulary reimportet it.. :-(

I have a widescreen netbook - perhaps because of this?

Perhaps someone has the same problem? or another idea?
thx



€dit: Here u can see, what ive changed:


Does really noone have an idea?
I cant go on with mapping without it, cause i have to decide to use this or to import another tile - but i need all of my already imported tiles...

thx

creativeRPG, you will need to set the bound radius to 200 or smth, depending on the size of your tiles to fix the problem.
Well, that's what worked for me at least.

Looks like an ancient tile to me because there are symbols so i will download it and put it in my custom map

Performs well as roof in my map City of Terror II.

I am trying to use this tile in my map as a ground tile unit, but unfortunately it is not clickable.
I am inspecting this model in Magos, but I can't find the reason why. These are just 2 squares on top of each other. I would expect a unit with this model to be clickable:

@pr114 in magos go to edit tab and select "calculate extents"
