plane

[Rick]

I notice there isn't a Model:Plane() like there are Model:Box()/Model:Sphere(). Does anyone have any idea or code to make just a plane? Would I have to do anything special to see a material on it also? I'd like to only see 1 side of the plane (guessing that's how they all work anyway mostly?). Also needs to be pickable. Not sure if anything special needs to be done for that.

 

 

Trying to follow: http://www.leadwerks.com/werkspace/page/documentation/_/command-reference/model/modeladdsurface-r342

 

Getting error: "Attempt to call method 'UpdateAABB' (a nil value).

How about just a box with dimensions like (20,0.1, 20)?

[ESP]

It is still a box. Can you draw a box and then delete the sides?

@Aggror That's what I have now, but seeing some issues and wanted to test out with a plane.

[ESP]

Just tried it I notice that you no longer need (or have) to press a create button.

I need to do this via code also, not csg, since I need to pick this with the mouse and as far as I can tell you we don't have a way to tell which csg model was picked.

Did you try to create "surface" from scratch?

Like in docs: http://www.leadwerks.com/werkspace/page/documentation/_/command-reference/surface/surfaceaddtriangle-r218

I know this isnt the direct answer, and im sure there is a reason why not but could you just not load in the plane mesh (included with L3) when needed.

@Daimour Yep. I get the error in my first post (looks like some things aren't exposed to Lua)

 

@Andy My next approach was to make a plane model in UU3D and load that in, but you say "included with LE3"? Where is that?

[Rick]

Just created a 1x1 plane in UU3D. Imported into Leadwerks 3. Applied the shader I made that allows multiple tiled textures. Working like a charm and looks so much better!

[Andy Gilbert]

Ahh thats good then, sorry included in Darkness Awaits there is a plane mesh used for shadow.
