Is there any way to move the nodes in a boundary separately? I know there's all sorts of weird boundaries in the shipped maps, and I thought this method would work:

1. Make a new path and add nodes to make the boundary (name it something ex: boundary1)

2. Make a new boundary, but dont do anything with it (name it something ex: fakeboundary)

3. Save the map, and open the .bnd file

4. Replace the boundary name (fakeboundary) with the path name (boundary1)

5. Save the .bnd file and open the .pth file (the main one or the .pth of the layer you put the path and boundary in)

6. Delete anything that has to do with fakeboundary and save.

That's my method, but it didn't work...

Although if someone does get this to work, here's a shorter method that skips the .pth file and making a boundary:

- Just make a path for your boundary, and save

- Open up the .bnd file and change it from this:

Code: Select all

Boundary()
{
}

To this:

Code: Select all

Boundary()
{
	Path("boundary1");
}

- Save and munge

So does anyone know how to move the nodes in the boundary mode individually?

If so, thanks in advance.

EDIT: ROFL! Apparently "gla-ss" (no hyphen) made the filter act up.

you might try making the boundry under boundry tab and then switch to path and then move the nodes. what i did

Wow...it's really that simple...?

Thanks, I'm gonna try that...

EDIT: Oh, I see. In order to do that you have to click on the boundary tab in the "Show" box.

Rofl, this can be locked in the morning (midnight over here).

Sorry to make another topic, but this error came up after editing mah boundary:

Message Severity: 3
.\Source\BoundaryManager.cpp(172)
Boundary path must be convex and counter-clockwise

The boundary doesn't work, and I don't understand how a boundary can be convex and counter-clockwise. If that means it has to have some kind of circular shape, that would be odd, as the Mos Eisley boundary is obviously a square shape...

- EP-782

Can you post a picture of how it looks in ZE?

The mos eisley one isn't square, at least I don't think it is. I'm pretty sure that it just uses invisible mesh collisions, or whatever you might call them. Invisible walls keeping you within a set area.
And how could a boundary not be circular?

You are able to edit boundaries by having ZE render them (The "Show" box with all those tabs) while in Path mode. And here's the odd thing: The name for the boundary doesn't show up, but only a space with nothing written.

Anyway, I solved this, and here's a tip or two when editing boundaries:
So this one can be locked too (although it might help those who have problems with boundaries).

EDIT: Disregard that example I have, apparently it's not working...

EDIT (again): Ok, it is working...
