Unable to make regular cubes in to Reflectocubes

#1 · July 19, 2011, 6:33 pm

Whenever I try to make a Reflective Cube the model in Hammer just stays as the regular cube. Is there any way I can get the model to change?

The model doesn't change in hammer but it works fine in game. There isn't any reasonable way around this. (although I can think of one complicated workaround if it really matters to you...)

I believe the model does change slightly in Hammer to indicate that you changed the cube type. Reflectocubes, iirc, show up as the rusted model. Spheres show up as the orange 'activated' cube model.

That only happens if you use the old skin field instead of Cube Type.
