resolution_wontfix type_to-do (no feature requests!) | by Safety0ff

---

This ticket is to keep track of what I have left to do and so people can add bugs that I might have missed.

What has been done so far:

-PIE export.

-Merged PIE and WZM opening into one dialog

-Ability to open PIE 3's.

-Ability to display single meshes.

-Turned on blending (improves transparency in textures.)

-Fixed some memory leaks.

-Add a dialog to select which pie version to save as, and relevant options (flags.)

-Persistent setting for default texture path to remove all hardcoded paths. (In Emdek's patch)

WIP:

-OO WZM class.

-Handle textures with Qt (removes libpng dep.)

-OBJ import.

-TCMask shader and fixed pipeline functions.

-Finish the tools.

-Use QGLViewer's frames for mouse based animation path editing.

Planned:

-Add scaled grids to give in-game scale.

-Import dialogs for 3DS and OBJ.

-Fix/complete add/remove connector/frame.

-Connector visualisation (coloured pyramid shaped indicators?)

-Make the connector coordinates match those shown in the viewport.

-ANI saving/loading.

TCmask pie files are default flag +10000 so you could maybe tell loader to ignore them the pie files are the same as flag 200, 220

QWZM shows pies in reverse left to right from how game shows them> note you cant see the gen or tank on that because its behand the connector window thats not how it shows in game

There seems to be a bug where if you load a PIE and press "Animate" and then load the blderik.wzm, some parts of the derik aren't shown ( the parts that move,) until you press animate twice, or wait it out.

Berg> Safety0ff: if you added a help button to UI could you make it show a text page with list options on it or functions?

Yea, Emdek suggested that ask well From forum

(In [10729]) QWZM: -Added experimental PIE export. -Added experimental PIE 3 import. -Merged PIE and WZM opening into one dialog. -Fixed ambiguous shortcuts. -Single mesh display. -Turned on alpha blending (for textures with alpha.) -Improved (but not removed,) use of hardcoded paths for texture finding. -Fixed some memory leaks. -Way less potential program exits. -Disabled (i.e. grayed out) buttons that don't currently do anything. -Fixed some warnings.

Possibly other stuff, and probably new bugs. ;P Refs #1763

Some (mainly) UI improvements...

Emdek commented

Above patch adds Help menu, about dialogs, changes animation and connectors dialogs into dock widgets, adds support for saving and restoring window state etc.

I'm planning to add list of last used projects, make file dialogs remember last used directory, add missing combo box for connector type (which values it should contain?), some other small improvements.

There are big problems with the way animation is handled, to prevent it from crashing, I have added some bounds checking to psMesh->currentFrame (more on this later.)

To be able to save/update the connectors we just need to update the connectors in the model with the connectors in the QStandardItemModel when necessary.

will the "import .3ds" option be added in a future or will we still use blender to convert models from 3ds max? P.S. .Obj sucks. P.S.2 sometimes I think that it would be easier to write a "3ds max script" for 3ds max than use various programs to get working model.

P.S.2 sometimes I think that it would be easier to write a "3ds max script" for 3ds max than use various programs to get working model. 3DS import already works, other than changing the ui for scaling and getting textures for .3ds, I don't know what else you'd want/need.

P.S. I actually opened your models from your thread when I was exploring it early on. Since I didn't have your textures I used an empty texture image from blender.

Seeing as it now has PIE export you could use it to make PIE's ( note that all poly's would be triangles.)

That patch doesn't apply cleanly, it seems you've forgotten to svn add some of the files/folders.

Also, we will be using lowercase filenames.

I don't see any advantage to putting the .ui's in a seperate directory either.

1)I need the "scale" option for a models. Also, scale for x,y,z axises separately. because models in 3ds max are too big when I export them. 2)I need to rotate and move a models. 3)convenient texture animation editor/option? 4)Also would be nice to have the compiled .exe with the latest updates for testing.

4)Also would be nice to have the compiled .exe with the latest updates for testing. But who could compile them each time? ;-) It's really simple to DIY, just download needed stuff (SDK: http://qt.nokia.com/downloads), open project file in Qt Creator and click Run icon, nothing more. I guess that it would be 287 MB option, so not very big amount to download (but extremely compressed so needs more space for install).

1) I have plans for a scaling option, though I didn't think about seperate x,y,z scaling.

2) Done.

3) Sounds reasonable to have at least one editor to edit this in WZM models. :)

4) I don't think it is in "testing stage" yet, note that if you want to follow Emdek's instructions you'll also need to get libQGLViewer ( http://www.libqglviewer.com/download.html )
