NEW IN UNOFFICIAL 2.10!<br>
|
|
Tool to assist on creating and managing Vertex Slopes.<br>
|
|
(Only for SRB2 and SRB2 Kart!)<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
This mode shows a small dialog window that you can use to manage your Vertex Slopes.<br>
|
|
Although this mode shows a dialog window, you can still use the main interface and zoom/move your view around the map.<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
This mode is volatile, which means that this mode returns to the previous stable mode when the map is saved or closed, either accepting or discarding your preview changes. You can access this mode through the <a href="e_things.html">Things Mode</a>.<br>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Creating Vertex Slopes</h2>
|
|
There's 2 ways to create vertex slopes, either by using a Triangle Group or 3x Vertex Groups.<br>
|
|
Note: To create a new group the selected tag should not have an existing group!<br>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Creating Vertex Slopes with Triangle Group</h2>
|
|
Triangle groups allow to quickly create triangles with individual vertices.<br>
|
|
• Select a free unused tag in "Tag #" or clicking "New" next to "Tag #".<br>
|
|
• If no shape exists on map use "Draw New Tagged Triangle" to create both shape and vertex slopes, otherwise use "New Triangle Group" and mark the corner points of the triangle geometry.<br>
|
|
• You can adjust heights of each individual vertex slope after the group has been created.<br>
|
|
• On map, right-click one of the linedef that form the triangle and apply the correct action.<br>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Creating Vertex Slopes with 3 Vertex Groups</h2>
|
|
Vertex groups allows sharing vertex slopes between triangles to optimize resources.<br>
|
|
If no shape exists on map you can use "Draw New Empty Triangle" to quickly create a triangle shape.<br>
|
|
• Select a free unused tag in "Tag #" or clicking "New" next to "Tag #".<br>
|
|
• If a corner of the triangle geometry doesn't have a vertex slope create one with "New Triangle Vertex".<br>
|
|
• Repeat those steps for each corner of the triangle.<br>
|
|
• On map, right-click one of the linedef that form the triangle and apply the correct action, you'll need to double-click on the list the other 2 groups that form the triangle.<br>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Managing Vertex Slopes</h2>
|
|
You can select a vertex slope group by left-clicking a group in the listbox, alternatively you can left-click a triangle group in the map (doesn't work on vertex groups).<br>
|
|
To manage the group you either can right-click in the listbox, use the toolstrip buttons or right-click on the map.<br>
|
|
Note: Different set of options are available depending if the selected tag have an existing group or not.<br>
