Blocky World Editor for 3D Blob Tileset #3

Open AldeRoberge opened 1 year ago

AldeRoberge commented 1 year ago

Hey! First of all, great tool. I've been looking around for days, almost giving up entierly on existing tools and building my own. Blocky World Editor has given me hope that someone else has gone through my same troubles.

I wanted to share something (sorry for the GitHub Issue, close it when done), for 3D tiles (blob tileset) 👍 http://www.cr31.co.uk/stagecast/wang/blob.html

This is the setup required for it to work : BlobTile3D

Took me some time to figure it out, so I wanted others to not go through the same troubles I did.

This is awesome! I'll even use this for reference, thank you so much!

I've actually been meaning to make it easier to create RuleSets and this seems like a great time to start that discussion. If anyone has any thoughts please let me know, but my current thoughts are:

  1. Add a transform gizmo to the object image to see the local coordinates, maybe add corresponding colours to the checkboxes (blue z, red x)
  2. Rotate the image so it's top down perspective rather than the low angle to orientate the image to the checkboxes. This has the issue that if some object looks the same from the top in any rotation but is actually different, it'd be almost useless.

Again, if anyone has any other suggestions I'd love to hear them. And thanks again @AldeRoberge. If we do close this issue I may add this as a doc to the repo if that's okay with you.

Hey! Also let's note how hard it was for me to find this project. I searched the Unity Asset Store, GitHub, the web and YouTube many times but never actually found anything regarding Blocky World Editor. Maybe you could add better keywords to the YouTube / GitHub side of things!

Good call, I'm really bad at that stuff

I found it through YouTube. So I would say that's your best entry point!

I've found a problem, which is unrelated, but when I move the root of the block objects, every placed objects disappear. Would it be possible to adjust the position (move) blocks without it breaking?

I can't seem to reproduce that, would you be able to record a video (you can send to bgk@peartree.games if that's preferred), or list detailed steps which cause it?

One thing which maybe has an effect, is you should never move the parent in paint/selection mode. Just because the map keys are set upon entering those modes and so if the block objects move the dictionary won't be accurate and can cause issues.

This is the updated rule tile, with a fix for the tile #23 which had a wrong rule (missing bottom left corner). I've only tested it with another rule tile system, but it seems to work perfectly now.

Here is the .vox (magica voxel) files I've used (can be converted to FBX with Blender plugin) : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1NzIbR3l92f2xJ1WHvWF2q7rXIu60LDn_?usp=sharing
