Author Topic: viggoloniggolo on a rampage- making beams (Read 2071 times)

Sorry for the misleading topic title, but this here actually portrays some support beams made in polyworks. I'll make more beams later so you can just get inspired or just plain old complain like little girls about Ken and Barbie not having genitalia.

SCROLL DOWN

Beam number one - the wannabe beam. You probably have seen it in the majority of maps.

Beam number two- the not so wannabe beam with ornamentation. It is not as common as the first one.

Beam number 3- the major wtf.

Beam4- snake

Beam5- fatass

Beam6- twister

Beam7- hollow

Beam8- chubby

Damn you, I just started a map a few days ago with lots of support columns, and was just wondering how to make them look not so f'in horrible.

Thanks a bunch [ and I will give you credit you cheeky devil you ].

I will keep on updating the main post up there, so stay tuned.
I'm glad someone actually uses supports in maps intentionally, not out of need to enclose some open space. I hope you won't get a heart attack looking at some of the supports.

Damn, those are good. Makes me feel like a pathetic mapper when a I look a this. You need to use these in an upcoming map. Its too good to pass up.

It'd be nice if you uploaded prefabs of em.

iDante · « **Reply #5 on:** January 31, 2008, 05:30:03 pm »

definitely using these in my next map. How do you want to be credited? (in the map comment or just in post?)

No Comments... I'm not sure if I want to ask what drove you to make that one.

Horve · « **Reply #7 on:** February 06, 2008, 08:35:06 pm »

don't ask.

credit me in the post if you are using those for some minor things, but if you are making a map completely out of supports then you should put it in the map comment.

Mayb-o I will-o upload-o prefab-os

I use simpler supports in my maps since (inf_cleaver) is too much of a huge-ass map.
