What would be the best way to make a curved or spiral staircase? I've been having some trouble with this for a bit of time so i though i would ask. A link to a tutorial would be great! |

Thanks muffin, this was very helpful and greatly appreciated! I have the hang of it and plan on implementing the design into a map I've been working on. |

I prefer to do this with the polybuilder: Create a square brush, click the tool while the brush is selected, enable "Use Border" define the step's width with "Border Width" and that's it. If needed, snap the vertices of your staircase with CTRL+G to the grid after creation. Then just drag the single segments to different heights and youre done |

It's not a big problem for me at this moment in time though, because Muffin's response worked well enough for my needs. PS: If you were wondering, yes I am pretty new at this. |

Probably depends on the Radiant version you are using. I use 1.5 (with no additional plugins installed). |

I recently came across a staircase generation tool called Q3StairGen2 made by Drewfin. It can produce spiral and standard staircases plus railings and has all sorts of tweaky bits. Note that it is a Windows application, but ran just dandy for me under Wine in OS X and I assume will work similarly in Linux. You can find more info in the Urban Terror Forums at http://www.urbanterror.info/forums/topic/23045-circular-stairway-tool/ or download directly from http://monkeytrucker.net/urt/q3stairgen.zip |
