I've struggled a lot with the making of gearboxes. I did find a guidefrom T3 (http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale3/Users/EldradUlthran/Gearbox_Guide) and some explanations here: http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale6/Gearbox_Design_Guide and http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale6/Gearbox.
Still I kept having problems and mostly tried them on a trial/error basis, which most of the times got me frustated :) so eventually, when I did manage to make them, I tried to write this guide.
Step 1 - What do you need
- Gearbox Assembly Table
- Gearbox design tech
- a stash of Small Gears, Medium Gears, Large Gears
- wikipage for the gear ratio's: http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale6/Gearbox_Ratios or you can use: http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale6/Tamutnefret_Gearbox_Ratios
- patience :)
Step 2 - Different gearpairs
- spacer, used to start a new layer (no cost)
- one step (photo) 3/3 only allows to move in a +-shape (cost=small gears)
- diagonal (photo) 4/4 cheap
3/5, 5/3 (5/3, 3/5 makes a large change in ratio)(cost= medium gears)
- two steps up or sideways (photo) 5/6, 6/5, 4/7, 7/4 (makes smaller changes in ratio)(cost when using 7gear: large gears)
- knight's move (photo) 6/6, 5/7, 7/5
- 4/4 is much cheaper then 6/6 , although with 6/6 you move over large distances)
