Spring RTS Engine

> I don't want to "mark sharp" 300 edges... :mrgreen: Yeah, it's not fun... I haven't figured out a way to do this automatically yet. But yes, since new spring will support .obj i don't really see the point on working on the s3o exporter further. the animation exporter will need to be rewo...

figured it out!

it was the line endings on the NOTA-categorization file.
Didn't like the DOS line endings. Converting them to unix fixed it.

hmm having issues using this AI with NOTA. no errors but the AI team just does nothing, tried normal mode, commander mode. tried 3.22.2 and 3.22.3 the NOTA-categorization.cfg and NOTA-config.cfg are there in the AI/Skirmish/E323AI/3.22.3/configs dir any ideas?

i like to think of it more as dirt than a shadow.

With a sphere you just have to calculate the distance from the origin.

With a box you need to test 6 planes.

you use the red channel from texture2 to control the self-illumination. from http://springrts.com/wiki/Units:Textures : "Red values are glow. The more red in a given pixel, the more glow it will have, overriding the light levels in a scene. A white Texture1 pixel with a totally red Texture2 pix...

nice humans!

You can easily spawn a bunch of units of certain types /cheat /give 10 armpw 0 (give 10 peewees to first player, places at mouse cursor) /give 10 corak 1 (give 10 aks to second player) as for modifying the unitdefs in game. /editdefs seems to allow editing of this, but how you actually go about this...

That said, being able to modify all unit settings in game would be awesome for testing balance and such.

3d modelling and texturing are a bit beyond the scope i'd say.
But map editing could be done since we can terraform anyway, just allow exporting the heightmap.

yeah this widget is broken and i don't have time to fix it sorry.
shouldn't be hard to modify though, even with minimal coding ability

is mumble server no longer running?
remote host closes connection when i try to connect to springrts.com on port 64738

link broken, anyone have a copy of this patch or could it be included in main line?

tried blender's texture paint mode?

i tested out a mutator with plasma shields, it was alright and pretty fun, since it provides a defense against berthas but will not hold up to vulcan fire and can easily be defeated by air, nukes, beam weapons or rushing behind the shield wall, but tweaking them to get the cost and settings right is...

For those interested:

Heightmap Nodes


The Mapping Z Size controls the ramp from black to white

Texturemap Nodes

thanks for the feedback guys! doing some changes, reduced metal output in the sea, and respositioned a few metal spots where mohos couldn't be built.

adjusted texture a bit to show paths more.

i may make a tutorial for blender map making at some point.

you just make a plane and subdivide it up a lot then use sculpt mode with X and Y locked and paint on that, then you can use material nodes to texture it.

not with that attitude!

could make some lua projectile functions

16x16 version is now available, please come and test it =)
