This is a program I have been trying to write for ages. It creates a wall from many planes, and makes it follow a matrixes height using mesh manipulation with memblocks and other trigonometry maths. A full explanation of the code is in the code , and special thanks goes to Andrew, Chiwawa and TheDarthster for helping me undrestand memblocks and mesh manipulation !!!

I'm guessing it is DBC only, since DBPro has a different way of dealing with memblocks, I think....

Why set camera rotation xyz? It doesn't make any difference, I,m using the turn and pitch camera commands, and anyway the moving around is just so you can see the wall, the main thing in my code was meant to be the function. It would probably be most useful for random landscapes where you want a wall.

Yeah, it can. Any number apart from 1 leaves the ends off. Andrew, I'm trying to upload an .exe but my ftp software wont log on and the one on the tripod website is not going anywhere. The exe is a bit different, as you can't alter the values in the code, but it is still only 19 lines (2 more than last time).

Its finally on my site, although that editing thing on the tripod homepage really screwed the projects page up.

On the projects page at the bottom on my site.

Oh, and I know if you make the walls bigger than 5*10 then a=gaps appear, just search for +0.1 and replace it with a bigger value. I should probably change that so it does it automatically.

I was sure you could get the upgrade from the db website, and besides I have a compiled version on my website.

edit

yeah, you can. Memblocks were added in v1.10, and v1.13 is on the site.
