Bukary 0 Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 (edited) It seems that camera window works much faster now! BTW, in DromEd there was 'Light Bright' command (in camera window one could see fully lit map). Very, very useful. Is there something like that in DarkRadiant?

Komag 20 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Do you mean in Render view? Because the default view is basically already light-brite Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bukary 0 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Yes, but there are lots of editor objects visible (no_solid, no_clip, paths etc.), so one can not check how the map looks in the game. I don't remember if it is possible to filter everything (with the exception of architecture, AI and objects) in render view. I will have to try this in the evening.

OrbWeaver 676 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 I was thinking about a rendered light-bright mode as a possible renderer improvement; I don't think this would be immensely difficult and might have some advantages over the non-lit render mode as you say.

Tels 279 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Yes, that would be great and very useful improvement. If it is not that difficult, go for it! The "Filters" you see in the menu are defined in an XML file, so it is possible (and easy) to add your own filters. And it should be possible to make a filter that hides everything like portals, clip and collision, objects and paths, but leaves the map and objects intact.

Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man." -- George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950) "Remember: If the game lets you do it, it's not cheating." -- Xarax Link to post Share on other sites
HappyCheeze 1 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 is there a way to filter out the collison and the other brushes that cover up the models in the model viewer? The only option I saw was to toggle the monsterclip Quote |=-=------=-=|happycheeze.deviantart.com Moddb Gamers Outreach, a nonprofit that uses videogames to raise money for chairty.|=-=------=-=| Link to post Share on other sites
Komag 20 Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 The main filter menu in DR works for that Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DigitalNapalm 0 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 1) On a lot of the textures I get a "shader not found" generic. Help?2) Is there a way to freehand shapes? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
New Horizon 539 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Could be that those textures are not included in the alpha, but there are material files used by other textures that reference them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greebo 102 Posted September 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Due to a nasty crash when using the "Save as..." command on maps with speaker entities in them, here is a new build from the latest development branch: http://72.8.59.188/TheDarkMod/DarkRadiant/...t-0.9.8pre1.exe This release supercedes the recent 0.9.7 release. No other major changes against 0.9.7 are included in this package, mainly the above issue is addressed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
peakish 0 Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Wow, fantastic speed improvements! The editor does not slow down at all with my entire (so far) map in view, contrary to 0.9.6. I love it [/encouragement] Quote Link to post Share on other sites
