Greetings. I have just started using JED (0.85) about 2 weeks ago. I've gone through several
of the tutorials, and they've been very helpful. So after learning some basics, I've gotten
the guts to start on a small, multiplayer level. I've run into a couple problems though..
1.) I have a long catwalk that requires more than 1 of the "mdm07catwalk3" 3dos. Now,
the catwalks aren't touching, but are very close together. The problem is that one of
the catwalks "dissappears" from certain angles whilst walking on it. I have no idea
how to fix it. I've looked for articles on this subject, but have found none. As a certain
Princess once said "Help me Obi Wan Kenobi...your my only hope."
2.) Now this isn't a problem so much as its my own ignorance. I was wondering, how one
who is using 3d mode would move around in a way that would let one see the upper
areas in a room. For example, I have a large room, which is fairly tall. My problem is
that I can't check my textures in the upper areas, unless I zoom far out from the
room. Obviously the detail at such great range is low at best, and makes aligining
difficult. Is there a way in 3d mode to manuver vertically to view very high/low structure?
Thank you for taking a look at my message, any help would be appreciated.
