Gentlemen, I present to you the worlds roundest brush.

After learning about subdividing and making a mistake on displacements I got an idea:
what if I made a 16 sided sphere with level 4 displacements sub divided? Would my computer explode? Would valve sue me?
My curiosity got the best of me and I pushed the subdivide button. After 15 minutes of waiting I nearly gave up hope,
I was pressing ctrl+alt+del when it stopped loading. After a few seconds of black it appeared.

After some admiration I went to the next step... What would happen if I made it hollow?

Overall it was a quick neat experience I wanted to share. Anyone else got any neat things you can do with hammer?

Woah.
Lawl I feel sorry for you.
I was making this rp map and spent like 3 hours on it
and it crashed. Worst part was I didn't save it. :(

How long ago? Maps get autosaved every so often under a different file type.
fack
do another one
Compile it next time.
[QUOTE=Jakobi;14734559]Compile it next time.[/QUOTE]
Compile it. If it works you'll be the master of the universe. Like He-man
It does work, but on the OB engine, maps crash with displacement spheres this size.
We used the same thing for UU to make the uber-planet.
Good god...what has science done?
I have an external program which can generate these for me, so...:P.
Now rap it in a box of reflecting glass.
DO IT.
Make two of them and carve them into each other.
YES. I SAID IT.
[QUOTE=LemurMan;14736081]Make two of them and carve them into each other.

it doesn't compile for me :(
[QUOTE=Juniez;14736385]it doesn't compile for me :([/QUOTE]
Probably because it appears that it all meets in a single point at the top. Meaning you have non-quad displacements.
Fucking hell.
That's awesome.
Learn to use the -low switch.
Hahaha, I lol'd
... You tried to hollow a displacement, a solid with a volume of 0.

Eh?
I should also point out brush=/=displacement.
Therefore not the World's roundest Brush.

The World's roundest Displacement atleast :v:
That's actually pretty cool
[QUOTE=Jukka K;14836349]The World's roundest Displacement atleast :v:[/QUOTE]
I'll give him that ;)
Well I tried hollowing my own and well....

Hah! Thats awesome, it reminds me of that thread about crashing Hammer by making spiky balls somehow, I forgot how we did it.
Noise and subdivision if I recall.
It's still carving...
Mines still subdividing...I need a better processor dammit :argh:
Oh fuck. It's done.
