I need to make a black box that is totally black regardless of the world
lighting ... can anyone advise? I've made the box but whatever is inside
seems to be affected by the daylight of the world not the blackness of the
box? I've even tried to color the box panels black and tried light
color=black ... neither worked. I need a good sized black box that can be
entered into but is completely pitch black inside (unless a light is turned
on or something). Thanks in advance...

Nope didn't work, I altered a pictwllh to the following...
modelbegin
clumpbegin
surface .55 .3 .1
ambient 0
color .0 .0 .0
vertex -.5 1 0 uv 0 0
vertex -.5 0 0 uv 0 1
vertex .5 0 0 uv 1 1
vertex .5 1 0 uv 1 0
vertex -.5 1 0 uv 1 0
vertex -.5 0 0 uv 1 1
vertex .5 0 0 uv 0 1
vertex .5 1 0 uv 0 0
texturemodes foreshorten
quad 1 2 3 4 tag 200
quad 8 7 6 5 tag 200
clumpend
modelend
Whatz wrong with it? And no, I don't have a real box handy, not that I'm
sure a real box would matter over panels making a box?

I'm just trying to alter an aw pictwllh.rwx so that no light from outside
gets into the box or on anything in the box, so far no suggestions have
gotten me to that goal but thanks all anyway!

Yep I've discovered it's useless LOL. The reason I wanted a *dark room* was
to view avs I'm working on anytime of the day but in a dark room so I can
see what they'd look like at night ... even if it's broad daylight. So
changing the objects Ambient / Diffuse or lit would defeat my purpose since
those are what I am testing in my wannabe dark room LOL. So I guess I'll
just have to make a *light room* so if I'm working at night I can see what
they'd look like in the daytime in the box because at least I can add lights
to affect them within the box.
I see another shortcoming is that we can't go past a 90 degree angle. I was
trying to make a motorcycle loop in which you would *ride your bike* within
the inner part of the circle, without bumps ... that turned out to be
defunct :o/ Nor can we walk upside down, etc, LOL Seems aw will not allow us
to defy gravity completely, even if we can fly.
Thanks for your help everyone! Hugzzz

I guess I should have specified a *vertical circle* ... like a roller
coaster loop where you and the car go around in it *defying gravity* ... I
didn't want to use bumps and even if I did it wouldn't look realistic
because the avs would be right side up because they wouldn't follow the
inside of the loop like a roller coaster does.

Even cheaper yet will be to make a *light box* for testing when not in night

Does anyone know if there's a program or bat file that will autodump the

do if someone can tell me how, would like to keep that handy on my desktop

I'm sure a bat file needs more than one line? Can you give full examples of

OK so what if I want to dump more than one av dat but not the whole cache or

I usually painstakingly go through the *tree* til I get to the file or

I did LOL, I tried both as a starter to a birthday gift but neither worked,
one even said I don't have the authority to use a z command object. I did

work fine in my world ... just wouldn't work for me in alpha (as copied from

Nice job on the demo area and thank you ... seems I must have done something

I already have an amphitheater set up, wasn't asking you to do that. I was

> Verinhaaaaa, I wrote that back in August. :-) Since then I have asked
for and quickly received my prize from AWTrivia. The "one object" I won was
graciously increased to several sets of objects that I asked to have added.
They are in Alphaworld now. You're already using my prize. :-) The curved
glass walls, glass door, spheres and trees. Those are what I requested to
be added as my "single object" prize. ;) Thanks to Mindseye (previously
aka Nomad), tunablues and dreamer2 for making them, to Andras for submitting
them for me, and to Rick for accepting them. At the same time, OneSummer
and NightRaven independently also submitted some objects - the media "sign"
objects.

because I haven't asked for it....yet. It was a prize that I'd have to
specify. Already aware of that, you! ;-)
someday. AWI hasn't been holding back on my prize at all. They don't know
what I want....yet.

That's actually sad, to think he's lost it his cit and therefore control of
his world :o/ sorry to hear that peacefrog, not that I'm not glad Fibbles
is back online but it's sad that the one who created it looses his cit and
the ability to govern that which he created ... sad
I wonder if AWI will continue Aeon after I've left :o/
