Are there any known issues with detecting corners? Using it seems to sometimes detect them other times it doesn’t, it mostly doesn’t, though.

Edit: I’m guessing it’s the scale? At a larger scale it works perfectly

Hey there, sorry for the late reply

Looks like it’s the scale? Might be an issue with the raycasting, I will take a look!

I’ve not got around to contributing my fixes, but from memory, yes it’s the scale. The way the raycast positions are calculated isn’t quite right and so at small scales it misses the corners.

Why??? , Where you live Roblox developer?

If you modify the Check function inside the DetectCornerOnSide function in the EdgeBevel script, this ought to fix it:

local params = RaycastParams.new()
params.FilterDescendantsInstances = filterObjects
params.FilterType = Enum.RaycastFilterType.Exclude
	
local direction = math.sign(sideOffset)
local offsetDistance = radius + 0.1
local startCF = cf + cf.RightVector * (sideOffset + direction * offsetDistance) + cf.LookVector * radius / 4 + cf.UpVector * radius / 4

-- Adjust the direction to cover the original distance plus the offset
local direction = cf.RightVector * -(direction * (radius + offsetDistance))

	
-- Perform the blockcast from the adjusted starting position
local result = workspace:Blockcast(
	startCF,
	Vector3.new(radius / 2, radius / 2, radius / 2),
	direction,
	params
)

if result and result.Instance then

There are two changes:

  • Sizing the block of the block cast based on the size of the radius (previously hard coded at 0.5, so I think this is the crux of why it broke before - corners smaller than 0.5 will normally be missed as the block often hits something else before the corner).
  • Dividing the radius by 4 rather than 2 when calculating startCF (I’m not 100% sure if this is required)

Unrelated to this, I’ve also done other changes locally that add support for generating the curved corner edges with UnionParts rather than meshes (which then allows the object with the beveled corners to be unioned and used for subtraction etc). I personally find this much more useful than the meshes, though it is a little more complex.

Hi everyone, I have released a fix for corners at small scales. Thank you to @Ed_Win5000 for contributing to the changes.

Please update to 1.4.1 to see the fix in action! @Kiriixer

Even though I like the plugin, I still don’t think it’s worth it. I think it should be free, since you can do this in Blender very easily with 3 clicks: Edit Mode, select an edge, Ctrl/Cmd + B. Compared with the price, it really doesn’t save that much; just make it free. Its gonna be worth using for free, and add a permanent public donations/support place on roblox and we cna drop u robux for donations if u are worried about financial support.
