: : Kenobi has a good point about rule 4 above. Problem is that as an up and coming editor I am diligently trying to do the tutorials. I have made it through the grates and water, now I am trying the Basic Elevators. When I try and place the elevator I can see that the "thing" is placed
: : correctly in the space but when I render it as per the instructions I can't see it. I am sire I am missing something but can't seem to figure out what it is. Any advice, help, or correspondence would be greatly
: : appreciated. Many Many thanks to Brian and all that have helped me along. I hope to produce a level that will meet the standard some day.
: better hurry, the standard is now riding piggyback atop the fastest manmade vehicle ever made. And theres a few saturn vs tied on just for the heack of it. ;)
: As for the elev... it just doesn't show up, right? In what way? in the 3do preview? Check the things height.
I don't see any mention of being sure about the height. To give a better idea of the problem look at the basic tutorial for elevators. I am doing it by the letter according to the tutorialbut am
unable to see the elevator in place (like in the tutorial). I have cleaved , extruded, and chosen the correct 3dO, it comes up in the preview screen just fine, and I believe that I have placed it
where it should be. But, alas, no elevator. I am sure it is all operator error and probably something simple as well.
As far as the standard goes, I have seen some very nice levels and hopefully I can jump on the rocket. And thanks for the follow-up JM.
