It was SO useful! Now all the things I build will have to be blocky! No more wonderful little smooth edges. D= WHY? It also broke various scripts of mine.

Excuse me. Could you assist my friend here? If you don't know why contact someone who does. You really should be above the childish "trolling" that you're doing.

Btw Archon, you should enjoy an admin that trolls. They're the few admins who actually have fun and not too 'serious'.

Luc, I am using Block Mesh. They still removed the Bevel property, and I find it very... unhelpful. Bevel was one of the most useful Properties of a mesh. Can anyone give me a good reason WHY it was removed?

"It will just be an affront to justice."
Well, that's just simply selfish. You can't tell everyone to do your biddings. He'll do what he want, and it's not for you to chose what he's going to do.


@MM23
What exactly are you trying to do? If you don't want bevels, keep the BlockMesh as it is, if you want bevels, just don't put a BlockMesh

Although, I have to agree Bevel is a very useful property.

You realize the LOCKED it, right? THAT is what I'm complaining about. I WANTED my bevels, they made my builds look SO much nicer.

The thing about Bevels was you could have any sized Bevel you wanted. I enjoy Bevels with a smaller radius then 0.2.

Erm, little weird to ask but, do you have any picture of how your 'buildings' looked? I'm not sure I remember how it looked like, and if 0.2 is near 'blocky', I think just putting simply a BlockMesh is enough.

Justice is about harmony while this is about you, making yourself feel better.

On topic, its a legacy thing and we will slowly but surely be removing support for some of them.

I don't have an 'buildings'. Just a few guns that small bevels less than 0.2 helped look a whole lot better. On things as large a buildings, 0.2 is fine. But on detail work on things such as guns and other tools, small Bevels helped with the ascetics without increasing the number of parts needed. Without the Bevel property, things like this will be stuck with sharp, hard looking edges that don't look nearly as neat. And sorry, no pictures are available.

Will these properties be getting replaced? Because knowing they (Or similar properties.) will be coming back will give me something to look forward to, instead of dreading the removal of other very useful properties. (*Cough* Humanoid.WalkDirection *Cough*)

@mm233

You're supposed to use meshes for tools. They allow for a lot more detail with a lot less lag.

The problem is that we can't upload meshes, and for good reasons too.

Yes, so since I cannon upload meshes, and I am well aware of the reason, and since I want my tools to be original and the fact that I'm not lazy, I must resort to using parts to build my tools. Thus, Bevel was a very important asset to me.

Edit post feature would be disastrous as everyone would start breaking the rules and then editing their posts. Even if get a nicer forum, edit stays out of the question.

I have edit though :D

Umm... Why can't you have some sort of edit history, so they can't hide that they posted links or something.

Extra effort for us to ban someone? KNOWING that everyone will employ this to try and save their backs? I strongly disagree.
