The skinny on Griff's spraypainting dohicky?

Post by mossfoot »

Can't seem to find it. I remember something about being to spraypaint your ships with a special OXP? And is there an easy way to figure out how to put a decal on a ship?

The thread for the OXP is here
https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=12024
I'm afraid it doesn't work with my new ready for Oolite v1.80 shipset so you'll have to use an older version, and I've got a feeling that current Oolite also has a problem with the Ship_Storage_Helper oxp the respary OXP needs too.
From what I gather the methods he respray OXP uses to modify the ship shaders is outdated and could be done much better with new scripting methods, not sure what they are though, :lol: I'd love to get something like this OXP working again but i'll need some pointers to where I should go looking for shader uniform binding modifying scripts :(

Yes, you can easily add a custom decal (or four) to most of Griff's player ships.
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

That particular problem has been dealt with.. Ship Storage Helper has been working fine with trunk/1.80 for some months now.
Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied
