the structure looks the same but the left wing issn't properly connected so i cant animate it

finite ice
#

then adjust the pivot point?

iron basin
#

ah uh

#

is there an easy way to adjust it to a specific part

finite ice
#

you could vertex snap it or you just use the pivot point tool with local movement mode
alternatively you could remove the broken wing, then just duplicate and flip the correct wing

yip

#

thanks

#

Another question, How do I make the UVs Take up More/Less Space in the texture?

#

in a modded entity

finite ice
#

In Modded Entity box-uv is a requirement and hence the size of the UV is dependent on the size of the cube

#

only size related thing that does not affect the UV size is the inflate value (4th size value field), which adds/subtracts the specified amount in all 6 directions (allows decimal values in comparison to the xyz size values)

iron basin
#

ah

#

Of course, I should be using inflate

#

I put inflate on a negative value & it increased the width of the wing (after)

#

before

#

since its pretty thin already its doing the opposite and increasing the width? how do i make it not do that?

#

I guess making it wider pre deflating kinda works

iron basin
#

I duplicated it, how do i properly flip it so it doesnt do anything crazy?

#

the animation's flipped 😭

#

Animation's still screwed up, any way to fix that too?

finite ice
#

show what you mean by screwed up?

#

if it's about the direction/axis, you can select the keyframes, then use one of these flip options

Nevermind that, I made a new pair of wings from scratch with the knowledge from this post, but I still don't know how to deflate a cube with one flat plane without its width increasing.

ah yes basic math my greatest enemy

#

it surprises me that you actually need to know a lil bit of math to do alot of this internet stuff

#

Mission passed?
