    Question E2 Shield

    Heya, thought i'd make an E2 Power Shield just to see if it could be done relatively simple and it could yey, just one minor problem, it ain't pretty :/.

    At the moment i'm using 2 holos of dome2 which give a disticnt line down where the 2 models split, i use them since using a sphere makes the shield invisible on the inside, since it's solid and you are "inside the model".

    Here, i took a short vid of it:



    Anyone got a solution to my cosmetic problem? ^_^

    Havnt done it in a while - but I think you have 2 holos, one inverted and the other normal.

    Code:
    holoScale(1,vec(10,10,10))
    holoScale(2,vec(-10,-10,-10))
    Like that, to make a 10 by 10 by 10 holo.
    They both need to be in the same place, same colour - all that.

    Didn't work (technically did the same before except i turned one of the holos by 180 degrees) still have the small gap between them, and even if i close em up i'd still have a line, is there any way to either see the spheric models from the inside or is there a hollow spheric model?

    what?
    and if you had read my post you would know i use domes because the spheres aren't hollow and you can't see the shield from the inside because of that

    I understood yours as negatively scaling one of my 2 domes, you didn't say anything about using spheres instead of the domes mate
