==Carve==
what the hell is your obsession with carve dude {{unsigned|SlimekPL}}
:Carve is a neglected and stereotyped tool, not my fault you can't use it correctly :shrug: [[User:Ficool2|Ficool2]] ([[User talk:Ficool2|talk]]) 12:55, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
::get some mental help dude {{unsigned|SlimekPL}}
:::Hi. [https://developer.valvesoftware.com/w/index.php?title=Reshaping_Solids&oldid=221679 This edit] was a joke. Honestly I HOPE none of you proofread it even. The fact not [[User:SlimkPL|one]] but [[User:Smaed|two]] people (the edit was live five times total) reverted back to an edit joking about carve being regarded as a big shiny red button labeled "nuke earth" really underlines that you guys have ''no clue'' what you're talking about. As ficool says, you're just repeating whatever master TwatHATTwaffle says and hilariously, his is the exact discord server I traced your off-wiki conversations about this drama to.
:::[https://developer.valvesoftware.com/w/index.php?title=Reshaping_Solids&diff=prev&oldid=221802 Darnias:] That picture is out of date anyway. Carve doesn't even do the cuts in the same directions anymore. I tested this myself (which noooobody does around here anymore), and there wasn't even decimal loss like everybody says. It was probably just an issue back in '''''2005''''' with Hammer's 3d renderer. Erik also did not upload that picture in order to demonstrate carve is bad. Please, all of you, quit being so goddamn stupid. [[User:Loudslappingsounds|Loudslappingsounds]] ([[User talk:Loudslappingsounds|talk]]) 18:41, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
::::Reply to [[User:Loudslappingsounds|Loudslappingsounds]]; this image right here is a carve square just like in that image from 2005 [https://i.imgur.com/Sr8IN9Y.png] and this is .vmf [https://i.imgur.com/TMTDBYN.png], explain me how '''-1.90735e-05''' is an okay number. Speak for yourself with stupid people. [[User:Darnias|Darnias]] ([[User talk:Darnias|talk]]) 19:03, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
:::::'''-1.90735e-05'' is actually an okay number. VBSP rounds numbers to a margin of ~0.03, therefore this actually doesn't cause any issues unless its severely imprecise, which I doubt.[[User:Ficool2|Ficool2]] ([[User talk:Ficool2|talk]]) 19:13, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
:::::Alright, so Darnias, I will give you merit there. Strangely, I have completely different results: for me, the numbers are perfectly whole integers but also when I carve I don't have all the individual blocks become different colors so there must be some sort of discrepancy between Hammer builds. [[User:Loudslappingsounds|Loudslappingsounds]] ([[User talk:Loudslappingsounds|talk]]) 19:07, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
::::::They're different colors, because they've been ungrouped. [[User:Darnias|Darnias]] ([[User talk:Darnias|talk]]) 19:08, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
:::::::Alright. Me not knowing that isn't really a reason to call me mentally retarded but uh [https://imgur.com/CtKDKN9 here's the numbers in my vmf]. [[User:Loudslappingsounds|Loudslappingsounds]] ([[User talk:Loudslappingsounds|talk]]) 19:21, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
::::::::Never said anything about 'mentally retarded', literally quoted your last message before that. Hammer fucks up decimals after you save, maybe try that. Either way I proved my point, you guys can keep fucking with VDC how you want, this is literally a waste of time for me. Nobody is gonna care about two guys proclaiming carve is ok when other 99.9% don't want to use it and know it's bad. Have a nice day. [[User:Darnias|Darnias]] ([[User talk:Darnias|talk]]) 19:30, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
:::::::::You did call me retarded off-wiki. I did save after I carved, and those are the numbers that resulted. [[User:Loudslappingsounds|Loudslappingsounds]] ([[User talk:Loudslappingsounds|talk]]) 19:33, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
::::::::::I'm starting to believe he has forged the results he has gotten to prove his arguments, I did some testing myself and I have not reached any decimals at all, even when carving with a complex shape.[[User:Ficool2|Ficool2]] ([[User talk:Ficool2|talk]]) 19:38, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
:::::::::::Idk if I'd go that far. The cuts in his image were horizontal while mine were vertical though. I guess I'll try in CSGO hammer too. [[User:Loudslappingsounds|Loudslappingsounds]] ([[User talk:Loudslappingsounds|talk]]) 19:41, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
:::::::::::Ok so CSGO hammer was fine, Alien Swarm hammer was fine, HL2 hammer DID cut horizontally, but still no decimal problems. [[User:Loudslappingsounds|Loudslappingsounds]] ([[User talk:Loudslappingsounds|talk]]) 19:56, 20 January 2019 (UTC)


== Carve - Josh ==
Stop writing that carve is good. The carve tool has accuracy issues and creates disgusting tris.
I'm not saying it doesn't have its uses, but it generally should be avoided unless at all necessary -- and even then what you make should likely be func_detailed and replaced with simpler geometry for vis pass.
- Josh [[User:JoshuaAshton|JoshuaAshton]] ([[User talk:JoshuaAshton|talk]])
: Accuracy issues don't occur with Carve unless you are using some more than a block, and even in that case you can just do Ctrl + B in vertex manipulation mode to fix the inaccuracies [[User:Ficool2|Ficool2]] ([[User talk:Ficool2|talk]]) 23:13, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
:: "unless you are using some more than a block," which is what you'd be using carve for anyway because that's much quicker? It's still bad practice anyway, the cuts it makes are very non-friendly [[User:JoshuaAshton|JoshuaAshton]] ([[User talk:JoshuaAshton|talk]])
