Hi

I made a rock arch in Wings3d based on a bent cylinder.
Applied the sculptmap to a prim, no problems there.
But I can not walk underneath it regardless the size or the texture.
I can if I make it phantom, but then the rock is phantom too.
Same problem on the preview grid.
Has anyone seen this before?

Thanx,
Wulfric Chevalier

Happens quite a lot with sculpties, the collision box of a sculptie is not the same as the visible part of it. The workaround is to make it phantom. If it's really importnant that you not be able to walk through the rock, stick an ordinary prim inside to make it solid.

Use torus stitching

I had a similar issue with sculpting a window/door frame so I used torus stitching because that includes a hole. Texturing was problematic, however, since it created a few very oddly shaped sections of mesh in places. You might get away with it all the same, depending on the detail of your rock texture.
