Re: Build mode and edit mode are both awful!

What happened to the good old days of Roblox when there was only one "build" mode, and you pulled up the studio tools by clicking some tabs up at the top of the game screen? Well I'm used to being able to use the current "build mode" while still having the studio tools along side, so I could see the explorer and properties and whatnot while controlling my character around the place I was building. Recently, Roblox has decided to make it so that when you're in "build mode", you don't have the explorer, properties, etc. and you instead have these crumby tools down at the bottom, including an array of bricks which are preset, uncreative, and resemble those of Minecraft.

So when I go into "edit mode", my character isn't there! It makes it really hard to navigate my map now, and if I were to make an obby, I would have to exit out of studio mode, open up play, and test it. If there were parts that were too hard or impossible, I'd have to exit out of play mode, go back into studio mode, and change it. I wouldn't have any access to real-time finagaling in that aspect.

So recently what I've been trying to do is cheat the system. I've opened up "Roblox Studio" on my desktop and tried to open "Build Mode". For a while I was able to open up Build Mode within the Roblox Studio window, so that I would be able to control my character with all of the Roblox Studio tools conveniently around the edges. Recently, however, this hasn't been the case, and a seperate window has popped up, as if I was playing someone else's game! This is utter garbage! How can I still be able to build my "place" the way I like to do it? Is there a way to drop a character into the map when I pull up Edit Mode, or is there a setting to pull up in Roblox Studio that prevents the presence of a second window when Roblox Studio is open and Build Mode is clicked?

Give a brotha some fist! Actually I was able to navigate edit mode a little bit and it wasn't truly awful once I figured out how to use the controls. Basically, use the arrowkeys and hold down the right mouse button to steer your view around. But I would like the option to be able to do what I wish, with the character and studio tools simultaneously at my disposal.

Yeah, I'm sure like, 75% people on ROBLOX know about this, and can't do anything about it or don't know where to ask. This post though, BETTER be veiwed by the Moderators, becasue this is a VERY bad problem. They are focusing on this, terrain stuff, and fixing that, when we can't even test the terrain with this Edit and Build problem! I had a way to where I can get my player in studio mode, but that all of a sudden stopped working, and now when I go to Edit mode, and click 'Start Player', it doesn't even save! This is the biggest problem going on right now, I think.

I wish it was like that again! Now studio is broken and we can only use Edit mode, and Edit mode sucks. This is so frustrating because it's hard to build. They need to change this, either this is a glitch or an update, This needs to end. NOW! :/

ROBLOX has evolved. Yes, I remember the old way of building, when I originally owned an account in 2007 [ which I gave away ]. Maybe, if you want a change, contact ROBLOX.

I agree. build mode in studio is a build mode verison in roblox. edit mode is just..difficult to make your models and make models of yourself.


Roblox please for the love of pie and glory,

What is wrong with studio now?
