@HMart, fun video. Clearly getting a portal working in TDM would be its own project

 For sure, it also requires some knowledge about the engine internals, specially in the part about cutting surfaces and creating collision borders. But I hope that someday someone is brave enough to embark on this project for TDM.    

[Jedi_Wannabe 216]

How many different foodstuffs you doing STRUNK? I would love these in my kitchens.

[STRUNK 270]

@Jedi_Wannabe

I also have stew now:

If only there were more foodstuffs, ' cause this doesn't look like haute cuisine really : D

Tomorrow maybe I'll try to have the foodstuff bobbing around a bit ^^

Did I show my kitchen/diningroom divider yet?

Nice!!

Possible setting for another Netflix episode of "Ugly Delicious"

[Geep 248]

Just freshened these wiki pages:

Model Scaling
Triggering events when looking at something
Attaching Props to AI

I had a year's worth of notes about wiki work, that I've been working through this last month. Getting near the end now, then back to mapping.

[STRUNK 270]

Great work @Geep!

[STRUNK 270]

Spices!

 

I modified the bottom of the jars a bit:

And added a .pk4 with all the spices: Basil,  Chili, Black Pepper, Coriander, Oregano, Ve-tsin, Cacau, Curry, Tyme, Cinnamon, Black Thea, Tumeric, White Pepper, Nutmeg and Salt : )

STRUNK with the Dark Mod Kitchen Asset Pack 1.0. Love it!

One bit of critique: the glass on the bottom of those jars seem very, very thick

[STRUNK 270]

@Amadeus

You are right. Seen from the front it seems ok but yes, I might fix that.

[Jedi_Wannabe 216]

Mmm turmeric and ginger! Keep it coming STRUNK, this is awesome.

[STRUNK 270]

@Jedi_Wannabe

Oh no, I forgot the ginger : O

 

[Destined 615]

I would say must have spices would Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme, but maybe I am just old Would it be possible to make a label on it? That way the spices could be identified not only by their colour. This is, of course, nothing important; just a thought.

[STRUNK 270]

@Destined

That would look good, but for now a bit out of my league. Maybe someone else wants to/can do that?

I'm gonna try to have it show up as one model where you can choose all the different skins (spices) in DR.

[STRUNK 270]

1 model, 15 spices, including ginger!

Had to fiddle around with the model's spice texture with respect to the overal granular appearence, but it seems to be respectable now. And I added collision.

Since TDM was invited to use Arx: End of Sun assets, I decided to try adding the fish AI to TDM (as wandering ambient AI, though it would be possible to make them dangerous again if desired). Whereupon I ran into the same experience Obsttorte had with the werebeast: there's something about TDM's handling of AI that makes going near them trigger a crash if they lack an AF. So:

The fish is now usable in an aquarium - or a kitchen - but I'm not sure whether it'll be possible to put it in open water without scripting its behaviour. It's possible to tell AAS to calculate 'swim reachabilities' but I don't know whether they can actually be used for anything; EoS calculated both swim and fly reachabilities, had the fish use MOVETYPE_FLY and added some code to let a maximum fly height be set in a spawnarg.

[STRUNK 270]

@VanishedOne

And where could one get such a fish? ^^

[Geep 248]

Great to see a better fish model being brought to TDM.

I once played around with a Unity-store lagoon model that had several articulated fish models, plus schooling fish behavior in C#. The latter involved each fish using per-frame nearest-neighbor detection of its closest schoolmates, then averaging their motion vectors and applying it, while striving to maintain an optimal distance from each other. I have no idea if schooling would be possible in TDM, and how one might do that.
