yes understandable

mr.rubinshtein

since engine builds everything by triangles

mr.rubinshtein

that way its faster and easier to render them

mr.rubinshtein

or process them

adrientd

for rendering yes

adrientd

but the ELB developers make the walls vertical quads instead of triangles

adrientd

which could be faster for collision processing

mr.rubinshtein

it makes more sense in a way now that i think of it

mr.rubinshtein

its less ass pain

mr.rubinshtein

it just draws a full polygon and reduces chances that you will have a problem with not processed part that will disable collision of it

adrientd

and also vertical quad walls could make collision detection more reliable: compare to Super Mario 64 that has triangle walls, and you have lots of collision glitches

mr.rubinshtein

yeah i see where you are coming from

mr.rubinshtein

so now you are having problems with specifically drawing finite walls the correct height?

mr.rubinshtein

or the problem is absolutely different in its origin

adrientd

I don't think that's a problem anymore

adrientd

Only problem would be that, when designing collision models you need to be careful that your walls meet the limitations of the engine, and that's all

pegperegogaucho

A problem for example would be a wall like this since it does not go straight up:

adrientd

yeah, you would need to split it in multiple walls

pegperegogaucho

What's the difference between a CWall and a regular one?

mr.rubinshtein

hmm okay i see
