.Map :: MoHAA Mapping

I been trying to use the clipper too for various things but it seems I can only clip one side of the brush. When I go to the other side I pick my two points and it clips the oppisite part of the brush, the part I want. Do I have to push a button to switch which side I want to clip? Ive been just rotating the brush but Im hopeing there is an easier way.

actually what you have to do is select the two points in the opposite order. That will cut off the other piece instead.

You can also hit the ~ key to switch to the part that vanished.

or set the two points and not just press enter but Shift+enter and u'll have both pieces

^^whoa didn't know either of those, cool

Awesome guys this helps a lot. Thanks.

When I map with the Spearhead SDK, the "~" key doesn't switch between the cut outs. I've just been using shift + enter. Has anyone else experienced this?

My ~ key doesn't work anymore either (Mohaa editor), but it use too. There must be some setting to turn it on and off.

semi related question while you guys are talking about it....

Your supposed to be alble to clip using 2 or 3 points right?

what is the third point for? Ive only had any success clipping straight lines with two points.

Can't remember what it's good for, but if you turn the view before you hit enter, the third point will cut the brush again (the 1-2 line cuts on a plane to point 3).

1st time i saw this post i was gonna ask the same question

.i know u can use it 2 clip in 3rd instead of 2 d.but i dont understand really how 2 use it!! .i put 3 points but the brush either dissapears or appears without being clipped .doesnt any1 know how 2 use it properly?

The 3-way clip option is pretty cool, but it's pretty tricky at the same time.
The best way I can describe it is from a construction point of view.
It is the equivalent of a compound miter saw.

It's use is rarely needed, but is a great alternative to rotating brushes to cut them just the right way, only then to find out that when you rotate them back, they no longer are on the grid in the right spot.

Perhaps I will make a quick tutorial on this if people want to see it.

It's really not at all that hard once you get the hang of it, and becomes second nature after a while.
The best part about it is you are not commited to make the clip, and can move your 3rd clip point to wherever you want to get the brush the right way before you clip it.

It will take some time to make the tutorial, but I'll make it a submit it here if enough people want to see it.

well,actually u can move all the clip points 1,2 and the 3rd.its really a nice feature .....when the 3rd works
