Using compound objects = gay

Me and my friend were debating if using compound objects is gay or not. I said no but he say yes.

  • Yes it is very gay
  • No it isn’t
  • You’re both gay. Real mens don’t make maps.

Making compound objects is a really bad idea from a time, design and optimization standpoint.
Learn Blender you bum

Now I’m definitely not one to call people gay, but compound objects are SUUUPER gay

Frick. I succ at blendero.

have fun learning unity

i could only find one tutorial and it felt like i was stroking out the more i read it and when you’ve spent most of the day making a sign and you find out you spelled quarantine wrong and downloaded the wrong version of unity it doesn’t feel too good

tl:dr unity is hell

Why didn’t you add a meh option?

Then you can’t figure out how to get the object to show up.

ohh, i did

i mean i didn’t myself because like i said unity is hell

I did it without AND tutorials. I made a light :smiley:.
Then it wouldn’t show up in the map editor T-T

There is the “meh” opition.

All of the tutorials I could find is rather… not for someone that’s new to it. Same goes with blender. (Altho I knew at LEAST some basics.) Nelson’s guide is not that good to learn (altho not completely bad) and modworks’s guide is questionablely not for me. (But covered the most as far as I’ve look up)

I wish there are a good-to-understand tutorials out there. (No offense.)

Lies. There is no meh option without insulting someone.

Welcome to telltales game, where’s one of your option will result in one’s death.

(It’s ok, me and my friend won’t get butthurt :slight_smile:)

You’re a regular, you shouldn’t be necroposting 11 month old posts with a meme.

Disregarding the necro, whats a compound object?

when you put two object together to make a bigger object

Kerf didn’t give that good of a explanation, Compound is the act of taking existing objects (pallets, books & beams are a common choice) and scaling them and mashing them together to form a “Custom Object”. They often have LOD issues, look bad, and have a ton of unnecessary faces. Pretty much everyone who mods see it as a terrible practice. Imo it’s easier to make Custom Assets than to do compound.

Oh. I get what you mean then. Makeshift objects made with existent ones. Its cool, clever, and creative sometimes, but like you said, ew.

It is “Creative” for sure, sometimes compound is acceptible in certain instances.


(Found this on a public discord, not mine)
This, for example, is acceptable, It doesn’t have too many unnecessary faces, and it makes sense. This is something some kids threw together, of course, it’s going to look like it’s made of compound.

Also, I wouldn’t describe compound as ether “Clever” or “Cool”.
