Im working with a little scene and have come across a snag making my level. I've look through the manual and it gave me some hints but still striking out. Here are the steps I took, Im using GS 7. I made a house. I build a box, then hollowed for the house to fit into fairly square but larger of course. I aligned objects to the grid. I applied a sky texture, blue textures to walls and grass to ground. I try to compile and get a E003 and a concave warning, it will not build.
Could someone please direct me to instructions on how to properly build a level or add a 'skybox' or give me and the othes here a step by step? Much appreciated!

I had the same problem when I first got A7. I built a guick small level just to play with the new software and came up with the concave block error, even though I did not see it when I was putting together the level. Never did find a concave block. I deleted the level and so far I have not had a problem with any other builds. It is strange that I did not recieve any warnings until I compiled the level but I figured I did something wrong. I wonder if this has happened to anyone else, maybe A7 is being fickle? Like I said the problem has not come up again. The only way I know how to fix this is to find the concave block and change it.

This is most likly due to not having the mesh settings correct. I managed to duplicate the problem and it occured only with my skyboxes and/or smooth turned on. In map properties the mesh size needs to be set to 0 or the build needs to be done with create mesh flag set. This seemed to fix the problem. Frederick_Lim gave a very good explanation of this in another thread. It does mention this in the manual under new features, however you need to make sure you have the 7.05 manual. I had the 7.04 manual which does not mention mesh size. It would be nice to see a tutorial or a discussion on what these mesh settings should be.
