Wow... That looks evil.

CUPCAKE , Wings3D itself has no concept of DriveThrough or ShootThrough, or any of the BZW objects. It is not a complete mapping solution, as there is just a mesh exporter to BZW. I already realized that. I just can't figure out how to edit the file it gives me to have certain faces with certain ma...

I'm making a map using Wings3D (not going to say what it is, it's a surprise) and I can't make somethings drivethrough... I am trying to make everything with the material "Clear" drivethrough, yet I'm not able to. Does anyone know how to do this? My only idea so far is this line: #matref c...

Screenshots:

I have to admit, I can agree with PETER... Being Canadian, its always been B Zed. No offense to everyone else.

Interesting hearing Legolas, AVM, and CBG.

Quite the map! I hope somebody hosts it.

For these floors, do we just make absolutley anything (within 100x100x45) with 2.x? I might give it a try... EDIT: here is the floor that I made, using only 2.x objects on the inside. Its a bit simple, but the idea is that some of the boxes stick you to the ground while others don't. I put only one ...

Wow... thats looks quite fun.

I made two ghosts for ahs3 on a request (for a halloween map, i think). He suggested that I put them here in case anyone else... ever needed ghosts. Anyway, They are two separate files seeing as they are two different ghosts. One is a Pac-Man-like ghost, while the other is just... a cartoonish ghost.

Looking good, ducky! But yeah, it still is a bit open there around the center.

I like the look of it! Great job!

Thanks ahs3

Thanks. The only thing that might need changing is the way of getting up the slide. It involves a physics driver that doesn't always get you up to the mesh. However, what I think I might do is try to add meshes up the ladder on the slide and take out that physics driver. EDIT: I've now fixed the sli...

Yesterday I decided to make something at random using Wings3D and then make it into a map file. I decided to make a playground (having started with a swingset), and the idea eventually developed into making a full map with meshes, meshboxes and physics drivers for the various objects. It took me a c...

Thanks. I still can't edit maps using Wings3D, but at least I figured out how to make objects into maps.

A few days ago, I made a face using Wings3D. Just yesterday, I figured out how to export something from Wings3D to a .bzw file. So today, I decided to test converting a 3D model to a map file, and it turned out nicely. I even added death physics that eats tanks.

On wings, try selecting the entire object and pressing S. That smooths everything out a bit.

This is a great map (for some reason, I played on it and did somewhat well )

Very interesting!

Just wondering (its no problem if you can't)- are you able to attach the .bzw file? The same with the screenshots?

I just played this today, and I had no idea that it was new. I thought it must be, yet there was no one else on. Great map, though!

Exactly where it directs me to:

C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\My BZFlag Files\worlds

Okay then, I've installed the plugin. However, I still can't access the files (which must be hidden...).

I've read the wiki: Wings 3D Wings 3D is a good modeler to use if you're new modeling. It has a much smaller learning curve than Blender, although it doesn't have as many features. There is also a plugin (which you can download here) created by trepan which allows you to export objects to a BZW file...

Well, if you have no flag and you die in the air (I guess hitting a world weapon would work...), then it announces how high you were once you respawn. The idea is to get the lowest, but high is good too.

Today I got a bit bored on Tank Driving Olympics, so I tried once again to get the highest fireworks (yeterday I tried and only reached 10000). Anyway, I did get a little picture of the result. Can anyone tell me whether or not they've seen higher? If not, then I can try again
