Post by Kalis »

Is it possible to create a 3D floor above another 3D floor?
i cant seem to figure it out, unless it cant be done.

In case you want to see it, here's another example that I originally made some time ago

If you want to put a 3d floor, I thought you just made another dummy sector and tagged it to the target sector. :shrug:

That's what I've done... and it worked.

Enjay's example shows exactly that.

If you can't make a 3d floor over a 3d floor, then the 3d floor is no 3d floor at all.

And really, calling them "floors" is impractical, as they have ceilings and walls, too.
So, how about "3d sectors"?

Because in reality all ceilings and such are really floors. :P

Hmm, in that case, shouldn't they technically be 3D-inverse-rooms, considering how the empty space of the control sector corresponds to the filled part of the real sector?

Terminology, let's live with it! :P

Well, they are actually map geometry. So '3d Map Geometry' should stick. Right guys? Guys?
