[Hardware Upgrades and Minimization]

Ms ergonomic keyboard (4000/something or other) + razor something with way to many buttons.. But I got tired or replacing the Logitech MX ever 3 months.

 

I just cannot use a n ergonomic/ split keyboard any more - hell I usually bring my own keyboard when doing consulting work

[Leadwerks 3.4 Launch Prep]

Should the aim not be to use the stable driver? For Ubuntu in particular installing beta drivers is an excellent way to make sure your system breaks on the next desktop update

[Playing around with near real-time Map edititng]

This would be cool if the map format was open to us.

 

It is, or is there something wrong with the map loading class Josh posted?

Completely off topic - but why are you tagging all your blogs with Android and iOS ?

[Water Update [beta]]

@marchingcubes

 

that may be the very same error I got - I just assumed it was due to the update and deleted leadwerks.cfg every time.

[Water beta now available]

[Water beta now available]

I am happy to look at any projects that have problems. Please send me a link to download.

Not sure if a map or project will help - any time the water plane is not completely culled in release mode everything that is not water turns black - unless I show FPS (F11), debug mode works just fine.

[Water beta now available]

Yes like that, and often even more pronounced

[Water beta now available]

That's the opposite of what I want. There should be controls of how detailed the water plane is, just like in any other game. And I agree with YG control over whats reflected could be nice as well. With sharp reflections we can turn water into ice (by putting a transparent CSG over the water to stop buyouncy). Insta-ice.

 

While that looks lovely real ice looks noting like that - it is in fact a very uneven surface with lots of scattering

[Water beta now available]

SetWaterQuality(int levelQuality) should set the reflection resolution instead. Current reflections are a bit too low and stick out of the rest.

 

Just do a quick blur - water reflections aren't meant to be razer sharp anyway

[Water beta now available]

Thanks Olby!

 

Sadly it didn't work so well

 

[Water beta now available]

Cant for the life of me figure out how to add the water to a project - have a water shader and a whole pile of water normal maps.

[Water beta now available]

if you have a test map I can test it with AMD on Linux

[Development]

My first thought when I read this was to make multi level fountain model with the water effect, like this

 

But if I read this update correct that will not be possible?

 

Or can we attach the shader/effect to custom planes?

[Selective File Inclusion (Beta)]

@tjheldna - not currently, but I believe there is that we've by now demonstrated a need to somehow mark files as needed.

 

Preferable a non lua file you can add files/directories to in plain text format

[Selective File Inclusion (Beta)]

are comments scanned aswell?

 

Or can we mark directories/files as 'always include' ?

 

For instance my gui has all the textures it uses in it's xml files, so it would be good to be able to say always include "gui/*"

[Initial VR Implementation]

Been hearing alot about people getting sick due to the disconnect from your eyes telling you that you are moving but your *** telling you your not - are you seeing this effect?

 

Seeing as apparently the problem apparently goes away if you got have a fixed frame in image ( like a cockpit ) I was wondering if perhaps a hud would also make the problem go away.

 

I've no interest in the device if it's just an advanced vomit inducer in regards to FPS games

[My artwork for Phobia - Progress]

It may just be me but it's way to glossy, and while it's for a horror game adding a bit of light a bit helps to let people actually see the asserts

[My Game Tournament Progress]

You could ask for help - the idea of the competition is co-operation after all.

 

Though granted it seems everybody is flying solo

[Halloween Game Tournament II Kicks Off]

@CrazyM: "Help the lazer shooting pumpins kill the evil crawler" kind of deal?

[Workshop Remixes]

Perhaps the workshop should show what package it's remixed from - and/or the combined sized for the download? - just so you don't surprised by a massive download chain

[New beta update available]

Lua libs on linux still isn't working - sendt you a PM with a potential fix and a way to test

[New beta update available]

looking forward to testing this

[An Experiment]

Ah

[An Experiment]

Backed it would have been nice with some info on model import/export formats tho
