Did I mention how absolutely grateful I am that TDM didn't get (and can never be) assimilated by a huge company like Microsoft, as is what happened to Minecraft?
-
That's the major advantage of FOSS of course: all the money in the world cannot take over the project (since it can just be forked for continued community development). Although for some reason FOSS games seem to be extremely rare apart from arcade stuff like Frozen Bubble.

Hello again.
Thanks for the commit. I changed the lines as you noted. But now I see this error:
<Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/jimm/.config/blender/2.82/scripts/addons/io_export_ase-2.py", line 1001, in execute
bpy.ops.object.select_all( action = 'DESELECT' )
File "/usr/share/blender/scripts/modules/bpy/ops.py", line 201, in __call__
ret = op_call(self.idname_py(), None, kw)
RuntimeError: Operator bpy.ops.object.select_all.poll() failed, context is incorrect>
I can see by you board activity that you're busy, and I'm just trying to learn how to export from Blender into DarkRadiant right now, so this isn't really of the greatest importance. I don't want to impact your schedule too much.-
I just tested and I can reproduce the error if I try to export from Edit mode rather than Object mode, so I have high hopes that this will solve the problem.
This is arguably still a bug in the script though, since it should handle the situation gracefully either by changing modes or by showing a user-friendly error message indicating the problem, rather than a meaningless Python stacktrace.

You shouldn't need any external packages installed, no. The only dependencies for the script are Blender and its in-built Python.
Looking more closely at the error message, I wonder if we might be barking up the wrong tree with Blender and Python versions, and this might perhaps be related to the current configuration of the Blender project/GUI. When you do the export, are you in Object or Edit mode? Does it help if you switch modes before running the exporter?
If this doesn't make a difference, would you perhaps be able to record a desktop video of the problem, starting with creating a simple object in Blender and then trying to export it? Perhaps this will reveal if something is wrong in your project which might break the script.

I tried downloading the Blender 2.82 tarball directly from blender.org and the exporter still works fine on my system, so I guess there must be something different about how the Mint builds are set up.
If you download a tarball from blender.org instead of using the version from the repository, can you use the exporter then?

I'm afraid I have no idea about that one. Is your Blender or Python installation customised or updated in some unusual way? I am on Blender 2.91 and I don't see any such error, so it can't be a simple matter of needing to update the script to match the latest Blender (unless your Blender is actually a very new development version which for some reason is misidentified as 2.81).

Greetings and salutations.
I have a question for you, if you don't mind too much.
I tried to use your script, io_export_ase.py for Blender 2.82 on Linux. I got an error on export in line 957 "in exexcute start = time.clock ()
AttributeError: module 'time' has no attribute 'clock'"
I'm not a programmer or scripter, but I'm good at following directions. What could be the issue and what can fix this? And if that's too much for your schedule right now, could you help with some pointers?
Thanks.-
Thanks, that should be fixed in Git commit 7012b87d83f7d0.

Sad day for content creators and internet users as the EU parlament just passed the higly controversal copy right reform :/ https://www.eff.org/de/deeplinks/2019/03/eus-parliament-signs-disastrous-internet-law-what-happens-next

So, New Zealand banned semi-autos. Not a long way from banning semi-auto handguns...

Sadly, banning things is the only way politicians can think of responding to a crisis. When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. And the only hammer politicians have is the legal ban-hammer.

An excellent policy freyk, which we should implement as soon as somebody invents a thought reading device.

I'd like to make an Ambients database that lists all the ambient assets currently available in TDM, for mapping purposes. I would like to ask whether it would be all right to use some public sound storage and playback site (e.g. SoundCloud, maybe ?) to upload short samples of these ambients ? As previews for the database overview. Feedback on this idea needed !
-
If you have web development skills, I think a searchable asset database for custom TDM assets would be very valuable. A lot of work to implement though.

Woken up at 12:30 AM by the sound of a jack hammer outside. Who needs to sleep anyway?

I suppose it might be allowed in certain emergencies, such as if some houses have lost power and water and they need to dig a hole to fix the problem.

Worked out how to get the DR documentation online using GitLab Pages. It's pretty incomplete at the moment, but thanks to GitLab CI, every push automatically updates the website. http://orbweaver.gitlab.io/DarkRadiant/
-
The information was probably "out there" but scattered around various forum threads, Wiki tutorials etc. The aim with an official user guide is to bring all that information together into a single place, structured logically and (eventually) covering ALL features of the application.

It's not a static blog, it's a GitLab Pages site which serves the same HTML/AsciiDoc manual that I'm currently including in the DarkRadiant installation. TDM Wiki is an important editing resource but I don't think it's the right tool for an application user guide (which should be tracked in Git with the source code).

There's no vendor lock-in with Vulkan (unlike Apple's proprietary Metal); it's a cross-platform standard maintained by Khronos and supported on most (all?) modern GPUs. It's close to the hardware because that's how modern hardware-accelerated programming works. High-level OpenGL functionality is becoming deprecated or abandoned because it's too inflexible for many use-cases and just becomes a driver maintenance burden.

It's only a delay, it will be back for another vote in September. A small victory yes, but not the end of the war.

Why is tax charged on a used item that's being sold as refurbished? Isn't that double-dipping? It reminds me of MS and the way they wanted to force every Xbox user to go online so that they and game publishers could extort money out of people when they resell games.

There's been an addendum to a contract that says I can't spend time messing with DR and TDM until RoW release on another project, as "it's distracting me". So... Thanks for all the fun and games, but it's important to keep this as I need it on my CV. (fku pariah, you grass).

Who is this employer who has the right to monitor and control your personal life? If they decide that spending time with your wife is "distracting" you, can they forbid that too?

Impressed to see that TDM works well on the open-source radeon driver in Linux. A little bit stuttery and I only tried the training mission, but still.
-
Yeah it's got three big fans, not the horrible whiny single fan that some stock cards have. It makes a pleasant whooshing sound when heavily loaded.

Sapphire R9 290 from 2014 or thereabouts. I woudn't touch nVidia on Linux for the same reason as kano. I want to support vendors who support open source.

Uk goverment trying to force through snoopers charter on the back on paris attacks, a bill which was being blocked by democratic debate.

Last I heard it was no order for the metadata, but a warrant for the fulll URL. But that might have changed (and with HTTPS the full URL wouldn't be available anyway).

They've even admitted that the bill doesn't actually give any new powers to counter-terror spies anyway. It's about making it easier for local police to trawl for minor offences.

Some dictionary awarded a 'best new words of the year' (I guess that got added this year), and one was 'ghosting'. It only took 17 years, but it's finally been made official. Now let's see if we can get taffer or lightgem.

I'd never heard of the social media meaning of "ghosting" before. I assumed the new definition was the usage from the Riddick movies (where it means "killing people").

But "ghosting" isn't a new word. It was used in the days of analogue television to refer to certain kinds of double-picture interference.
