Breakthrough in Geomerging! Merge Movable Objects with the map geometry.

I think this has been resolved, but I'm going to type this anyway.

StreetSoccer's thread is about keeping a wall underground, and placing stuff on it, but it's not merged into the ground, you can't see it.

This thread uses the same basic idea of getting a wall underground, but goes so much further, because it's geom-merging, so you can see it when you play.

Off Topic: lulz I'm in ur sig yay

 

could this idea also help geo merging become more level? jw...

 

AWESOME!!!! That's all I can say. I'm so gonna have a scorpion turret sticking out of the ground BECAUSE I CAN.

Hmm.. Interesting nice find you sir can has +rep.

 

This is amazing, you will be remembered for it. If you can find a way to interlock movable objects then I will personally carry your children.

To any mod, can we get a Forging 101 over here?

+rep to you for this, truly epic win.

 

I'm confused as to WHY things don't come flying out... I will assume you cannot have something less than halfway in the ground?

 

I ran into the same thing while interlocking on Foundry. Then, whenever i had to interlock me and my friend would wait in the spawn area until it appeared and shoved us under.

 

Vinco, not really the same thing.
That's glitching under the level your speaking of, not geo-merging.

 

Wow. Nice find, +rep. I'm guessing you make gause warthog turrets come out of the ground. And use wraiths as cover lol!

 

NIIIIIIICE this gives me the ability to do many things on my current foundry map.

so they stay put and don't fly out this is useful. what if you spawn a tele? will you die under there?

gonna try for myself i guess. you should ask to have this add to the forge list. the big archive one? ta.

 

I gonna +rep you for finding this. I think people could do alot with this.

 

Great Find man. This can be very useful. The other thing that makes this technique great is that (if im not mistaken) this technique will basically make moveable scenary immovable. Great Job.

 

can you do this with fusion coils? beacuase if you can you could have a fusion coil floor or something like that

 

wow, this is really cool. i was wondering if doing that would make geomerging easier, but you can merge movable objects?! i could definitely use this sometime once i get the hang of it. thanks for this awesome idea and + rep dude.

 

The geomerged lift is epic. I love you.

 

I tried this and got underneath the map ok, but couldn't get the objects to stay merged. I was fine with all the steps, but when I delete the pushing box at the end the object just raises out of the ground again, or flies into the ceiling and disappears. I was using a crate and pushed it just over halfway into the ground, do you have to push crates further than that?
Any help would be appreciated as this looks to be very useful.

 

I tried with a dumpster instead and moved the wall further down as well, it worked fine.
It looks so cool, the novelty still hasn't worn off. Thanks for finding this and for your help getting it to work for me.
