And I don't see how getting a ball instead of a sphere makes that big of a difference, to be honest.

When I make a triangle, it doesn't go *ting* when I tap it on-screen with my finger.
Also, make object from limb doesn't work:


@gbark - your avatar is 330k in size - I've removed it while you work at getting it below 50k.

Ok Ok... This is hillarious - I'm grinning ear to ear... but maybe ... just MAYBE he doesn't know there are different MAKE OBJECT SPHERE varieties. One is predefined, the other allows more "Rings" etc... hence you can make it VERY highpoly and smooth... for say a BIG "Sphere" versus a tiny ball.

I got big balls,
but if I move camera -100, they kinda look like circles.

( 2b || !2b ), that is the question. The answer: true

Yes you do

Of course they look like Circles! - If you want a planet like elipsoid ... perhaps you should use a modeller program, make a sphere and collapse it a little.

When I try to create a scale object to weigh my in-game characters, it gives me an error -- What am I doing wrong?

+ Code Snippet
make object sphere 1, 10
make object plain 1, 100, 100
wait key
end


I tell it make sphere then I tell it make it plain - but it not like make it plain. "


make the sphere and the plain on a different objectID
so like this:

@qqwy: I didn't start this. I am sorry if any one thinks this actually serious. I can't believe the mods actually egged this on. But, it was fun. I will not post here again.

edit: I mean to this thread. You can't get rid of me that easily.

Oh, that's cool! Really cool!
Using your example i've decided to make object EGG using vertice data!

And, can i make polygon (not face) using plain' vertices?
I've found that imported plain is a bit different that DB's one.

Hey, that's great. Someone is learning from my "joke code".

I have an egg maker function that uses that method. I just distort the vertices in one dimension, it looks kind of eggy.

I am not quite sure what you mean by your question, but you can distort the plain into other shapes if that is what you meant.

It would be nice if Creators will add one command to DB:
make game [game title,game type,random seed]

FPSC - They did this already.

I'm not escaped stupid mad clown age of 10 that joking with TGC people =)

And, i think proper command should be:
make game [title,type,random seed,epsilon value,esrb rating]

Although, qest:
In ye olde classic DB there was command to make objects Lee Bamber, Cristopher Bamber and Malcolm Bamber. Why this dont work in PRO? And what other secret commands do you know? Like make game or smth
