cutting holes in walls

Hi

I have been looking at that ivory tower place and i'm not convinced what i'm looking for is there, or if you can even do it, in game

It would seem obvious to be able to cut shapes out of walls for you to fit your doors and windows into, but i've been hovering outside my land for about 5 hours now .. trying to figure out how to do it .. with the controls at my disposal .. and i'm not sure it is ....

.at the minute ..i'm looking at a circular interior with a square exterior .. ive
cut a hole in the side for the doors using the path cut begin end command in edit object .. but thats about as far as i can get .....

unless someone can tell me how to cut holes in walls or solid hollow squares, which would be very useful

i suppose what i want to be able to do .. is put a hollow anywhere i want .... in a wall


thanks

it is not possible you have to use extra pieces to achieve the effect you want

yeah i had been doing that i..e cutting a slit in the wall and then putting a section of wall across the top

but i find it ridulous you can't just chop a hole in a wall to the dimensions you want

You can do it in a limited fashion. Try this to understand the effect.

Make a box size X:1 Y:1 Z:0.01
Set hollow to 80 or so.
Set X taper to 0.8
Adjust the X Top shear around.

You can adjust the hollow, taper and shear to place the location of the hole.
Its a bit harder to texture, but if you're strapped for prims, this might be an option.

What cottontail said. Basically, you need to look at the hollow function, not path cuts.

Aye, Boolean Operations arent available for building. It would be nice to have.
