while searching for more ramp addons, but i could not seem to find an actual addon.
any idea who owns this or if the addon exists? or if possible, could someone make this into an addon?
Creator of said models chiming in.
I originally made these in 2011 for fun because the shapes were simple and like you felt that there wasn't enough variety. I never made them into bricks because at the time I did not know how to create ramps and as far as I know no one else has utilized the models either probably because they lack UVs which is the difficult part in making ramps.
However since then I have released the
Blender BLB Exporter which could be used to automatically create UVs for the ramps (that will look perfect after some manual tweaking which could also be automated) and export all of the bricks in one go. Port has also made a fancy new
DTS exporter for Blender which could be used for exporting the DTS collision models though it does not seem to support batch exports so you'd have to individually export each brick. I really don't feel like putting in the time and effort to do this since I don't play the game anymore.
Demian was working on these a while ago. He became less active on the forums after he had to do his mandatory service in the army. You should shoot him a PM, though
Aye, 6 years is quite a while ago. My activity had already dropped a lot before my military service in 2014. Essentially real life just caught up, I feel my free time is better spent on improving my art, design, and programming skills in addition to working on any of the numerous projects of mine rather than creating content for a game I no longer play. Even so I have been infrequently checking the forums for about 5 years whereas I only played the game for roughly 3 years. That's the curse of Blockland (Forums?): once you really get into it you never truly leave.
Ps. A private message is actually a good way to reach me eventually, I tend to check the forums once a month or so.
Edit: I started working on adding batch DTS export capability to the BLB exporter so I guess that's gonna be released within a few weeks.
