Unable to vertex modify all selected triangles


(Flippy) #1

hey…

I had this problem for a while (might be that i always had it) and it’s giving me a hard time trying to create terrain by hand…

Whenever i select a large number of triangles, (for example, now i have 720 triangles (which is 20 rows * 9 columns * 4 triangles per “group”) and press V to start vertex editing, only like 3/4 of them get a green dot. I am unable to modify the triangles without green dots…

I assume this is just a limitation of the program?
If so, it’s an annoying one…

Or is this some error which can be fixed?

are you trying to select them all and bring up the vertices’s tweaking options for all 720 triangles at the same time or just selecting a smaller ground and working on them

all at the same time…

It’s really annoying imo to have to select only a small group, change that, select the next group, change that etc… would much rather change all of em at once

there are many annoying things and limitations when mapping for any game. you could try selecting larger groups but just not the entire 720 brushes. you cant edit that many at once and you would probably get better visual results if you focused on more local areas rather than trying to do the whole thing at once. it might take a little longer but quality does
