1x2F ceiling print brick

[Demian]

I'm attempting to make a 1x2F ceiling print brick. Here's how far I got, but Blockland just crashes when attempting to load the add-on.

Remove that gap.

Would anyone mind explaining me how the position thing works? The top quads are messed up and the bottom print face doesn't show up.

POSITION defines the location of each vertex relative to the centre of the shape you defined on the first line. You were on the right track with the top quads in that previous piece of code, all that needed touching up were the UVs.

I recieved a nasty error when I planted your brick, so I'm not certain what the problem is with the bottom quads. However, I can tell you that the position is a little screwed up. It should be:

Code: [Select]

POSITION:
-1 -0.5 -0.5
1 -0.5 -0.5
1 0.5 -0.5
-1 0.5 -0.5
This arranges each vertex to form a rectangular quad.


Also:

Code: [Select]

----------------top quads:
2
This should probably be 1 for now.

[Tophius]

God damn I hit 'quote' instead of 'modify'. Again. Disregard this post.

[Demian]

I guess I wont be releasing this brick, as I do not have the skills to make it work.
