sphoenix 11 Posted May 11, 2008 Hi, I'm very new to modelling in O2 and my first project, to learn, is to make a table with a PRC-25 on it and a lamp. If I get cocky I'll do some wiring too. I have been unable to create cylinders and spheres; all I get is one vertex, no matter what the size of the wanted cylinder is supposed to be. Any clue on that?

rstratton 0 Posted May 13, 2008 o2 wasnt designed to be the tool to create the models , but more to edit the models and convert them to p3d format Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dm 9 Posted May 13, 2008 o2 wasnt designed to be the tool to create the models , but more to edit the models and convert them to p3d format That is utter bullshit. If you don't know, don't comment. Its not helpful. SPhoenix - your problem will be the "Segments Radius" entry when creating a cylinder, and the "Segments Horizontal" / "Segments Vertical" when creating a sphere. Make sure you enter a value larger than 3 in these options, and you will have a shape created. A good idea is to use sides in multiples of 4, so 4, 8, 16, 32 and so on. This makes lod making easier.

I completely agree with you DM. I only use O2 to make all our models including the UV sets. Its just a matter of getting to know the application well and improving your skills. To make ArmA as well as the Future ArmAII models/addons there is absolutely no need to use any 3rd party applications. I use O2, texview and Photoshop. I think my work speaks for itself. I see you also learned the LOD manipulation basics..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
