U can also use vertex paint which gives ur map multiple textures. go to www.cncden.com and cheak out ACKs map tutoral it will tell u how to do vertex paint. u can also make sock formations like a rock bridge. there are alot more ideas in the tutorials at www.renhelp.co.uk You need to login to create posts in this thread.

07 February 2005 15:55 (UK time) Poof! Out of nowhere comes Me_Mantis the Moderator! GMAX is basically a watered down version of 3DS MAX, and it does basically the same stuff as it. I use both, so I would know. Anyways, a very useful thing to try is getting the tutorials that can be found @ <link> http://www4.discreet.com/gmax/gmax.php?id=905 </link> or somewhere around here. If these don't help, send me an e-mail throught the contact link @ meteormods.com. You need to login to create posts in this thread.

07 February 2005 20:41 (UK time) How it can be done is like this: Make a box, whatever size you want, with like 5 or so segments on each side. Select the segments you wish to use to make a door, or whatever and extrude them into the building. Another way of doing this would be to extrude a bow with a door in it with a C shape, and make a roof for it. For additional info search yahoo.com for gmax tutorials If none of this helps, send me an e-mail, and ill make a tutorial for you. =) You need to login to create posts in this thread.

09 February 2005 14:06 (UK time) "o and even if the way me_mantis says works, its not the right way to do it." Dude. That totally depends on the result you want when you are done. There are a few ways or doing it, and the boolean way is actually the one that I am going to try, because I don't really use g-max to make buildings. I usually use iron cad(ironcad.com) and import the models. You can also make a conplicated building by extruding a floorplan, and cutting you the doors.
