best way to make a underground tunnle

The way used by "Pyramid of the Magician", "Ancient remain" and maybe "Humanaptra" :

Another way using Blender3D :

The correct spelling is "Hamunaptra".

The correct spelling is also "Ancient Remains".

The correct spellings are "wasted", "bytes" and "smitten".

Thank you, Taiyo.uk.

You also want to capitalise the first letter of a sentence.

o.O

Thats really hot!

Also, the blender one assumes that you know how to use blender.

And you say we were correcting your mistakes yet we were correcting Pat AfterMoon. unless you are him.

The correct spelling is "please".

You're an asshole Taiyo. But I <3s you.

PS: If you say "The correct spelling is 'loves'.", I will personally see to it that you die a horrible death.

ODDity · « **Reply #15 on:** February 15, 2008, 05:11:24 am »

You say plz because it's shorter than please.

I say no. Because it's shorter than yes.

whitebear · « **Reply #16 on:** February 15, 2008, 10:13:46 am »

But sometimes you can't take the short way.
For ex. sometimes you need to type /n and can't just press return.

blood2.0 · « **Reply #17 on:** February 15, 2008, 08:45:23 pm »

Ok i am sorry that i spell stuff incorrectly. I just wanted a simple question answered and judging by your post the only way to do it is by hand. Thank you for the links they are really helpful. By the way i don't know how to use blender but i know how to use AC3D which i can make a tunnel in and import it to blender.

Taiyo.uk · « **Reply #18 on:** February 15, 2008, 11:01:20 pm »

Trisoup (terminology for an area of a map created using many triangular brushes) may be an option. This gives you a fairly comprehensive level of control over the geometry of the area since individual triangles are the fundamental elements in any 3D scene. If you create the tunnel as a model then export to Radiant then you'll need to caulkhull and hint afterwards.

See SimonOC's tutorials for instruction on how to create decent rockwalls/floors/caves/tunnels.

noooo problem! xD

btw, you can patch mesh spam tunnels that lag like crazy... and you also gotta caulk em off so they dont leak

It's funny - I'm doing the exact same thing, except I'm doing it all by hand, ring by ring. I'm just making tunnel prefabs that can be slapped together, though. It's not very fancy, but it'll work for me.

blood2.0 · « **Reply #21 on:** February 21, 2008, 07:50:59 am »

i found a good way to do it. its to make it on another map and import it into your current map saves a lot of time that way you can make 4 different tunnels and choose the one you like best for the location in your big map. thank you for your help though!
