The way i usually do it is to make the cables out of cylinders & then i can drag the middle vertexes down to make it sag in the middle like a real cable...

Hi ric, I too make mine using a cylinder then adjusting it to fit and with a slight "sag" in the middle. Why do I always end up with a load of "couldnt derive lightmap" errors when I try this? I always end up deleting the b****y lot.

hey DadofAzz, I have about 30 of those errors pop up because I used cylinder to create a metal stair way + banister !! If you solve it let me know..... it doesnt seem to effect map so why delete them ??

Yeah, ric m8... my compile usually goes belly up too..... How come some ppl can seem to hang cables hither and there with no probs... I have never ever been able to add more than about 4/5 thats when the probs start. I give up and even if it is one of Wyatts major gripes I say "sod it".
