well umm you can twist in vertex mode, i always find it easyer to make the stairs and the flat invisable brush on top of it, BUT make sure the flat brush and the staircase are split the same number of times, just bend the stairs however you want, then bend the invisable brush, thats my method  |

| Quoting NoClanFrank | | Quoting KERPAL | | The invisible texture is pretty hard, but for me I usually use a box with an 0.01 height with splits then bend it on top of the stairs , or you could put an invisible texture after every other step but that takes more work. |
NO NO using one brush per step would be, well for a lack of a better word at 12:32 AM, dumb. You would end up with too many brush for a stair case. 
All you would need is a thin brush and set it to detail and wrap it around the stairs in vertex mode. The brush would of course have to be split many many times to suit the stairs and it's angle. Just like you stated above. |
Yeah, that works the best rather than placing an invisible texture after every step.

try messing around with the axis areas like "x" and "z" or try "y" and "z"
here is another one I made, I guess Im getting a bit carried away lol
and yes there is an invisible texture on it. |

As far as making them, use a photo program like photoshop or even MX paint.
To import them, just do this:
| Quoting RED Help | It's easy to add custom texture maps to your Red Faction levels.
Texture Requirements:
All textures must be 24- or 32-bit .TGA (Targa) files. They must be a power-of-two in each dimension, no more than 256 pixels wide or tall. 32x32, 64x32, 256x256 are all okay. 133x64, 512x256 or 100x100 are not okay. Texture dimension cannot not have a ratio greater than 8 to 1 (e.g. 256 x 8 is not allowed)
Once you have your textures created, simply copy them to your \RedFaction\user_maps\textures\ directory, and run RED.
Any custom textures used in a level will be automatically included in the VPP packfile when you use the "Create Level Packfile" command.

hmmm... this pimp my map idea is really taking off although in my opinion its getting very busy. It might be a good idea to have a different pimp my map thread each month so that it seems more organised and full with newer stuff.
Just an idea? |
