Title: Level Structure Post by: Yelhsa on September 23, 2011, 09:12:11 pm Does anyone know how I can have the bottom and top floors show simultaneously without the ceiling like this?(http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p297/blake_boy/Waterfall.jpg)
or when putting in stairs like this?

If you combine that with the cameraman mode, it's not hard at all :)
Walls up/down can be controlled by home/end on your keyboard, and floor up/down by page up/page down. While in cameraman mode, the camera won't jump to the next floor but stay put, so you'll see all the floors that fits into the screen. I don't think it's possible to do this properly with the play mode camera, so it's mostly useful for screenshots or such.

I always take pictures this way and for the purpose I Build the house already with smaller rooms (like the one where the burglar is punching) as open room over a two etage high house that has no floor between them. So, this is not a trick but special constructions. If you place the camera on the second floor and there's no floor beneath, you will see both floors simultaneously.
