Portal making question
Portal making question
the part where it makes these "portals" to divide the level or something, can anyone go into more detail in how to do it? cause i got stuck at the part where it goes west-east or something like that.

Re: Portal making question
i think he means the part of "exactportals" and "portals" that divide up the level so some parts dont have to render all the time. (not portals as in warping around the level).MC117 wrote:the part where it makes these "portals" to divide the level or something, can anyone go into more detail in how to do it? cause i got stuck at the part where it goes west-east or something like that.

scroll to the end to the part where it puts the green stuff in the level, i can put one, then does it want me to duplicate that one and place it next to it or what? and when it says
"12) To further subdivide the level into more portals, faces running "West" to "East" were created using the existing vertices and edges for the planes. Only the middle 4 edges and associated vertices were used. In addition, the edges were extended past the level boundaries."
how does it do this? i mean how does it use the existing vertixes?
