Surf Ramp Problem Created 17 years ago2007-01-28 23:13:21 UTC by Blackened

I'm making a surf map and I have noticed when I test out the map that you can't switch from one side of the ramp to the other side. It's like there is an invisible wall seperating the two sides. Please help.

I used two different solids to make one double sided ramp, if this matters, please tell me.

did you use vertex manipulation? the second ramp is probably a unit or so bigger than the first which is blocking you

im 100% sure that they're the same size.

What is vertex manipulation? I'm sort of a noob.

its a tool that you can manipulate the vertices of a brush with

did you rotate the ramps? in surf_egypt... i rotated the ramps a bit and it created invisible walls around the ramp

if you cant figure it out... you can send me the map and i can try to fix it tomorrow

I only flipped the opject around. I did some manipulation but after pressed ctrl + z and just stopped.

When you say you flipped, do you mean you used the manual rotation tool (in the 2d views), or something else? Because if you just rotated it, there's no way you can align two brushes correctly at odd angles. If you didn't do anything wrong though, it's probably just some weird clipping problem, and you should upload it to the Problem Maps section of the map vault.

By the way, is this for Half-Life or Half-Life 2?
