Remember in Sim City 2000 when you made a new terrain it said "Reticulating splines"

What is spline modelling?

KillMeNow · **Reply #25 on:** November 15, 2001, 07:47:00 am

basically you draw 3 curves and the computer fills teh area betwen them witha curves surface that conforms to teh 3 curves - and i knwo i asked venom about it cause i couldn't believe MAX didn't have splines

oh, yeah, just for reference, in 3ds3 (8 years old at least), there was already splines, in fact, you were almost obliged to use them (2D shaper and 3D lofter modules) if you wanted to do anything else than building poly per poly or per extrusions.

Count me in!

I remember when I bought SC2k and had to wait for months on end to play it, as the laptop we had (386sx 25Mhz, 2Mb/40Mb, greyscale LCD) didn't have enough memory to install it!

ah, simcity2k

I wanted to build Megacity one (judge dread). SO I made the surrounding walls with dams, and put the black archologies everywhere

.
Oh: am I the only one who saw superman attacking the tripod like alien ship when it was attacking an archology?

Carl · **Reply #30 on:** November 15, 2001, 07:04:00 pm

that wasn't superman, it was maxis man. if you by the urban reneual kit you can look through all the buildings and units, one of them is maxis man.

Hehehehehe, I never saw that, although the alien thing was rare for me
