GZ Doombuilder - Plugins? Correct Version? Fractals?

[Macro11_1]

Hi, just trying to get back in to editing again after another year of hiatus -_-, and just trying to make sure i have the latest version of gzdoom builder, see what if any plugins there are out there for this program. I'm looking for something that can take a linedef and "fractal" it in to many lines, similar to a cartographer program or something... the idea being an easy way to "draw" interesting cave walls easily, or natural stuff. I know that the editor has a randomize function, but I've found it lacking... (maybe i'm just using it wrong, if there is a tutorial on it id be happy to read it).

Thanks for any time taken to read/reply to my questions :)

The closest thing would be Doom Builder X, which is forked from Doom Builder 2 and includes scripting:

Curve linedef tool might help, as might the grid draw function (if you're doing vertex slopes, that is).

..... to make sure i have the latest version of gzdoom builder .....

The latest version of GZDoom Builder is r2787.
The latest version of GZDoom Builder - Bugfix is r3039, available in both,
32 and 64 bit versions. Read the info on the github site.
 

 

..... I'm looking for something that can take a linedef and "fractal" it in to many lines, .....

The easiest way I found to break a linedef into smaller sections is to highlight a linedef

and press Shift+C. On the top toolbar set Distance to 0 for a straight linedef or some

number to curve it and Vertices to the desired number.

 

 

Then press Enter to accept and end the process, then randomize the selection.

mmm, ive tried the curve linedef tool, and while its good, I was hoping there was something more similar to this program's fractal line drawer.

If it dosnt exist, then oh well :)

That vertex slopes is a nice link, tyvm :)

I can't say I know of anything that does what you're asking in that case. Sorry!

 

Also I'm glad the tutorial is of use to you. ^^

I did see a post somewhere about a fractal plugin that was being created but I can't for the life of me remember who it was. Pretty sure the post was in the "post your doom picture" thread some months ago. Might be worth doing a search for "fractal" in that particular thread

@Bridgeburner56 Do you mean this?

[Bridgeburner56]

@KVELLER that's the one! Good memory

Nah, I just searched for the word "fractal" in the "Post Your Doom Picture" thread, and voilà. Just what you said someone should do, really.
