Author Topic: Centered glass bricks, that go inside other bricks  (Read 2302 times)

Definitely possible to overlap bricks, but it will be a problem for the brick loading implementation that skips overlapping bricks.

I'm still not getting it.

Why would you make your window frame invisible?
Not the window frame.
You would place the window brick which normally would have no collision.
This would give the visual effect of the window.
Then you would place normal (5X height let's say) brick inside of the window frame that would keep collision, but rendering would be turned off.
It would appear that the window brick was keeping you from going through, when in fact there was an invisible brick inside of it.
Pretty Simple.

Another solution.
Would it be possible to make a thin water brick with visible sides and non-undulo?
If this was the case, you would only need to turn on collision.
Profit.

If you have a window frame that you need to completely fill in, and you can't do that because the window is a shape like a circle-window or something, then just use the window glass brick and it will fit inside any window frame shape you want
Yes, that is what OP wants. You just summarized op in a sentence.

I would rather make a special window glass brick rather than a frame. That frame only has one style but glass fits anything. I'm pretty sure the reason op wants this is so the glass is actually visible. Otherwise you could just leave the window empty and put some invisible bricks to prevent people from going through.

I kind of remembered that you could make a brick a water brick and not have those features but I might be wrong. I guess I'm thinking about the zone bricks here but since they are invisible you can't see the water effect.

You can turn rendering, raycasting, and collision on with them, and they look fine.

Seems like you could just make it a zonebrick?

OK. So there are normal bricks and water bricks. and zone bricks? are they just water bricks? how many brick types are there? what type is the coffin? why can't one just make another type?
This is why I said:
would you like to explain this?

You can, but, again, OP wants the brick to be visually thinner than other bricks, and also centered in-between the studs.

You can do that with zone bricks.

are you trying to say as little as possible with every post? just wondering

I'm assuming people have read the thread. But if you insist.

Oh and those float cubes are water bricks.

if I insist what? I asked you a question :|

I assumed you wanted me to elaborate my posts more.


so just like

copy 8x poster brick

make it water/zone layer

color it transparent

and bam



cant be that hard to understand, right?
