I use Block Meshes frequently when I don't want teh stark contrast of beveled parts meeting unbeveled wedges, but because Block Meshes don't use Materials, like SpecialMeshes do, I can't make terrain using them. I also think that the same should be applied to Cylinder Meshes, for, say, a wooden column for people that don't know how to CFrame. (Just an example. :P) Only being able to use the Plastic material with these two meshes really cuts down on the possibility and potential for non-CFrame builders.

I'd also like to point out that the Cylinder mesh has a big flaw: the number of sides of the polygon on the ends are not equal to the number of "sides" along the curve, creating a gap that looks horrible from any visible angle.

That's my point; it's not impossible for ALL meshes to utilize materials, they jsut don't. :P


And that cylinder graphical glitch really annoys the sheet outta me...

@Noob;


Create a brick, and put a Cylinder Mesh in it. Scale the brick up pretty big and look where the "sides" of the cylinder meet the ends. The gap is really annoying from a builder's point of view.

I'll just imagine it's horrible.

Support, I'd like Block & Cylinder meshes to use Materials, and not be required to use decals on Block Meshes, or that cruddy Cylinder :D
