eh, i need to make some good rocks for a beach. they're going to be nice big ones about the size of m1l1's rocks during the evading spotlights with Grillo.

help would be much appreciated.

Try static -> natural -> rock

Either the model as jv said, or if you want a rock wall, you will have to construct it manually using a "simple patch mesh" or regular brushes.

Mansteins Leveldesign has a nice tutorial that ( among other things ) take up natural rock design: http://dynamic5.gamespy.com/%7Emanstein ... tentid=140

unless those were models ,then probably u can copy them by decompiling the map .i dont think decompiling would screw them alot ,andif it does u can always fix them

i think static>natural>rock would work, i didn't see that, i was sure i checked all over the static library.

sorry about that, i missed it.

my problem with LOD was that i need it to jut out in the middle so it wouldn't look all round.

thanx guys, sorry for asking that when it was right under my nose!

If the static models aren't the right size that you want, you can always chnge their size by changing the default key/value of scale/1.00 to something larger or smaller, depending on your needs.
