How does one change the maximum brush size for a map's editor now that the editor details are saved on a per map basis since forever ago? Is it still possible, because if I could just get a larger brush size I could maybe get smoother roads the way I would like them to be. Max brush size default is 40 I know that I could get 200+ if I could just figure out how to do this even though for my application I only need 50-60 Solved in post #7
Re: Brush Size I think it is possible in one of the brush files, I'm not sure which one but I can find it later if nobody else does first.
Re: Brush Size T3D Map Editor? Brush max size is locked at 40. I assume there's a hack in the bowels of T3D code somewhere. I do remember a few people asking for this in future Torque updates. Would be cool to flatten or modify much larger areas in maps for sure.
Re: Brush Size T3D Map Editor? Somebody posted a post in development screens i believe that had a file. that file changed the brush size. i cant find that post sadly
Re: Brush Size T3D Map Editor? ive noticed a few random times when I screw around in the editor (at least in the pre-0.8.3 days) that when I slide the slider up to max, and then try to use the mousewheel to zoom in and out, very rarely did it actually not zoom, but rather it would adjust the brush size to up to 200, and the pink circle/brush got huge, to the point where I could paint the entire gridmap terrain in about 5 seconds with huge brush strokes...cannot duplicate tho, it was a fluke when it happened, and since then I have tried all different combos of key strokes and mouse clicks and zooms but never got it to happen again...
Re: Brush Size T3D Map Editor? I once did a test to see if I could paint a 2048 map with a 40 brush faster than autopaint and uh...I think I lost but I told myself I won anyway.
Re: Brush Size [Solved] All of this is conflicting.. what I am talking about is: Back before the devs introduced the cache having... nvm I just found it. Tutorial Open Your Cache Folder @ [Harddrive]:\Users\Owner\Documents\BeamNG.drive Go to settings, there will be a file called "Editor.xml" Open this file in notepad, wordpad or notepad++/prefered text editor Upon opening your text editor/processor Press: CTRL+F and a "find" box should show up... Search for: next "Brush" Tested, Change the following things: [set it to 80 or whatever you want however higher = increased lag when editing] ------------Code------------ </Group> <Group name="Brush"> <Setting name="brushPressure">0.175</Setting> <Setting name="brushType">ellipse</Setting> <Setting name="maxBrushSize">40 40</Setting> <Setting name="brushSoftness">1</Setting> <Setting name="brushSize">5 5</Setting> ------------------------------- ------------Code------------ </Group> <Group name="Brush"> <Setting name="brushPressure">0.175</Setting> <Setting name="brushType">ellipse</Setting <Setting name="maxBrushSize">80 80</Setting> <Setting name="brushSoftness">1</Setting> <Setting name="brushSize">5 5</Setting> ------------------------------- And now Warning larger settings will introduce lag when editing [obviously] EDIT - 2015 Oct 15th : adjusted to make it easier to see what is being changed after new forums break code being color-highlighted or bolded.
Re: Increase Brush Size? [Solved] cheers, thats very helpful, albeit easy to find if you actually dig for 5 minutes. however, I still am wondering how in the hell the brush size was able to go up to 200 with the mousewheel. ...im not imagining it, it definitely happened on several occasions. Not sure what that was all about, but I assume now you can go into that file and edit that maxbrushsize and allow it to go up as high as you want then? very cool tho, thanks for pointing that out!
Re: Increase Brush Size? [Solved] well it was in the last place you'd look... like finding a needle in a haystack compared to how normal a place it was in before. In total I likely spend 30 minutes looking for it.
Re: Increase Brush Size? [Solved] Nicely done Slayersen!. Someone was bound to figure it out eventually. Thanks!
