surely they don't work for cursors?

GODDAMMIT!

becuase there will always be another, then another, then another...

edit: and no release

hmm, that's an idea, trouble is it can only be done by peeps who already know their way around the source code as they're the folks who'll know how 'tricky' the patch will be.
caydr will want a bounty section too

keep the existing one too though!

hmmmm...i'm all for the possibility of aliens seeding life on the planet (a few few bn years ago), but interfering with us all 50000 years ago...nah

LOOK A SP@CESHUTTEL!!!!111 the egyptians knew what they were for!

do you mean cleaner/less busy?

is this empty objects you're talking about?

mmm...tasty!
performs well once it gets going, though i've found it tends to crash if there is more than one instance of TSI, i shall mail the logs.

It seems to randomly not like somethings. Wings still doesn't appear to like using feature detection on the nano only project, but it all seems to map so far.

yer. It would have Recoil. Just because of the projectile sizes and the fact it has no Propellant the recoil would be really small. nope, just the same. it's simple conservation of momentum: 1: launch a projectile of a certain mass at a certain speed (IE give it some kinetic energy) 2: you can't cr...

just let wings choose which faces belong to which groups and look at the outcome; when you're UVMapping you can't choose all the faces to be attched to one another as it confuses Wings. instead it divides the faces up into groups. these groups are split up on the UVmap. you can shuffle them round, t...

The DREAD looks like a nice idea :| i would like to know how you get zero recoil from something firing projectiles...if it does just as much kinetic damage as a machinegun then it has to give it's projectiles the same KE, meaning it'll have identical recoil. i think someone is confused. physics be d...

you can't map an entire object in a single map with Wings. just make all but one face a single map and the odd one another if that's how you really want to do it.

that's right. if you import and object whilst having another object selected it becomes a daughter. god only knows how you managed to get a flare to become den mother snipa .
(cut and paste might work for moving them round...but it also might distrub the positions/shapes or corrupt the model)

this structure's foundations were layed on soft ground

2.) edit->preferences, advanced tab, and enable advanced menus. If you are new to modelling, I strongly suggest doodling and fooling around with different commands and tools so that you get acquainted with and used to using them. damn right - that's one of the most usefull features in the program :...

can i just say, it makes my skin crawl/brain implode to think that there are laptops that'll wipe the floor with my pc as badly as these would.

My first problem is UV mapping. I have tried using feature detection and projection but neither produce uvmaps that work with upspring (misaligned). Feature mapping seems to align something but they are the wrongsize (too small). I've tried flipping but to no avail. Am I supposed to flip in the UV ...
