PM Griff - he's a superstar for helping shader noobs - plus I think there's some explanations in the shader thread...

I suppose i could just make several "like_ship" entries with a different

Code: Select all

diffuse = "0.5 0.5 0.5";

but that would take forever and alot of lines of code...

If only

Code: Select all

diffuse = "random";

worked...

@ADCK
a rushed and somewhat confusing breakdown of the re-painting code used in the griff cobraIII fragment shader

Ah thanks... but i had just finished "like_ship"ing and diffuse'ing for 8 diff colors of each ship

Guess I'll try your guide tomorrow.

So i finally got my Eagles ready to play, load it up...
and disaster, my ship is invisible... or so I thought:

See that tiny little spec in the distance? It's not in the distance... that's its actual size

I forget to check the scale before exporting it

Easily fixed, but made me laugh.

<UPDATE>

Finally got them in game, just a few more tweaks to go on it and i'll release it.

The Mark IV JUST fits in to a docking bay, its a tight fit though.

Sometimes, a single screenshot brings home how far this game has progressed...

Just got to move on the logo...

(are there any plans to pick a winner for the logo comp, ever, or at least soon?)

I'm in a screenshot mood today. Ustile (G2) Fp2 WIP is a volcano and lava planet.

Since the official rules permit entries until we’re ready for the next stable release, one might deduce that it will be some time around then. (In practical terms, a little before we start making release candidate builds.)

Well not a screenshot but a video:

I made a promo video of the WIP Famous Planets 2.0. Worlds of Galaxy 2.0.OXP with custom music!

Enjoy. Also a great showcase of some Griff Objects. Make sure you view it in HQ.

ADCK did Orisis shading for me! Here's the classic variant with shaders

I'm thinking of redoing the UV map for that and maybe slightly altering the model a bit, as there's a small texture overlap on the bottom of the ship, and a rather largish portion of the png image isn't even used.
