That would probably help... I used a pause from in game for the old ones, and the picture up there for the new ones. My tablet camera isn't very good though, so that's probably what the problem is.Tricky wrote:I cheated and loaded the 1st diffuse texture into GIMP, flattened it, inverted and then lowered the white level.

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
Here's a version of the recent cargo Pod oxp but with the shader changed a bit to apply a sort of 'Green Wireframe effect' over the object.
It's not quite as neat an effect as i thought it was but it does help the pods stand out a bit in-game if they're a bit too dark originally, just install the oxp and pretend your ships scanner has had a pod detecting upgrade

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
Here's the pod texture with the QRCodes and Barcodes but without the 'chips' in the paint, I think the barcodes are un-scanable, I chopped bits off them to get them to fit without having to scale them down too much

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
Yep, those worked. Well, the QR codes did. I was able to get the barcodes to scan twice, but both times they were different, and both times they were wrong. Oh well. It's cool that their on there anyway.Griff wrote:Here's the pod texture with the QRCodes and Barcodes but without the 'chips' in the paint, I think the barcodes are un-scanable, I chopped bits off them to get them to fit without having to scale them down too much

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
So I installed the new, so-called 'wonder driver', from Nvidia this evening - which may not have been a wise move, as it happens.
It doesn't seem to like your shaders, Griff - it throws oodles of these:The full log is here - it covers most, if not all, of your ships, I think. Ho-hum!
Without Griff's shipset, Oolite appears to run fine, with no errors - has anyone else installed this Nvidia driver: 337.50?
Meanwhile, I'll roll back to the previous drivers, methinks. It may be a faulty install - or it may be my machine. Bugger!
Edit to add: tried a fresh install of 337.50 and got the same result. Rolled back to the older drivers and all is well again.

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
I've got an nvidia card, i'll grab that driver and give it a test, with a bit of luck if it doesn't work with the shaders in the current bundle shipset oxp it might be OK with the new shaders in the current 'standalone' versions of the ship oxp's i've got up at box. If it does work, i'll sort out an update bundle oxp and get it uploaded - man, i really hope the new shader does work, it took me ages to fumble about cluelessly in rendermonkey getting it to run

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
I didn't get around to testing that new nvidia driver in the end Cody, i spotted some stuff on a forum where there was a chap getting that error with his shader, a nvidia guy was there saying it was a bug in that particular build of the shader and it would be sorted soon
here's the page - it brings up some sort of certificate warning on my pc, so i'll paste underneath here's the relevant quote i spotted
https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topi ... -function/
"unfortunately, you are hitting a compiler bug related to function parameter passing we have already fixed, but did not make it into the release driver, yet."

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
So it's the Nvidia driver at fault, yes? Okay, that's good news.

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
Anyone tested the new nVidia drivers that just came out, GeForce 337.88 Driver WHQL?
I'm still getting the shader error with Griff's shaders when using these drivers.

I plan to install that driver tonight (should've been last night, but other stuff got in the way).Gimi wrote:Anyone tested the new nVidia drivers that just came out, GeForce 337.88 Driver WHQL?

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
oo, let me know how you get on, I'm off work this week on holiday and so on an internet connection worse that two old bean tins tied together with string so I can't grab the new drivers, if possible can you test the driver with one of the standalone oxp ships from either the Core shipset for Oolite v1.77 (and higher) or Core Shipset for Oolite v1.79 (Trunk) subfolders found here: https://app.box.com/shared/rpkms25cc9
the shaders in these oxp's are newer ones than what's in the bundle oxp

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
<chunters> No luck! Oodles of errors with your shipset. With only the Cobra Mk III from the Core Shipset for Oolite v1.79 folder installed, I got a bunch of these:Back to the old drivers, I suppose - ho-hum!

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
Thanks for testing this Cody. I think i'll sit up tonight and grab this driver, this page
https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topi ... -function/
seems to suggest it's a bug in their drivers and it's from a while back - so if the bug has made it into the release version of the driver then I suppose it's now a 'feature'
The guy there shows a workaround, i'll have a look to see if it does indeed fix this problem

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
[dumb pilot mode] Doesn't Cheyd's nav buoy use one of your shaders, Griff? That seems to work fine (as does the BGS stuff)! [/dumb pilot mode]

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
yeah, it's odd - I've just tried out cobraIII v1.04 from my box, the gun subentity shader is compiling and working OK, but the shader for the hull isn't - from the error message that 'ambientColour isn't defined' it does look like there's a genuine bug in the shader - I've fixed that but now there's too much ambient lighting being applied and the cobra is glowing - I can't get this fixed - I think the shader is running bits of code meant for simple shader mode when oolite is set to full shader mode, still investigating....
edit: hmm, it looks like it's something in my decal applying function....
edit2: specifically this
