Done.

 

Deleted 350 TGAfiles with revision 7794 from the models/ subdirectory. The script only marks the file for deletion if the DDS version is actually newer than the TGA version so the operation should be totally safe.

TGA's were backed up to the hi res repsoitory though were they? We have to keep the originals for future editing.

I think so, but I am not sure. (I never backed any of them up because the highres repo only gives SVN errors for me)

That's true, but luckily SVN never loses anything ;) You can restore them by doing for instance:

 

svn update -r 7794 models/

 

which would restore the models subdirectory prior to the deletion, then you can copy any TGA file out of it. You can even restore single files if you know the name, like so:

 

svn update -r 7794 models/textures/props/blah/foo_bar_lit_d.tga

 

If any one needs a file, they can also just ask me and I happy restore it for them.

Looking at our env/ folder, it is currently consuming 170 Mbytes and contains mostly huge TGA files. Can these be safely converted to DDS, or does D3 have problems with skys and reflections?

I think it has problems, as you only specify the name of the file minus the suffix (it looks for specific suffixes) - _y, _z etc.

 

I think I remember trying to convert them to DDS and they stopped working (and I know that other DDS textures were showing up).

 

Go ahead and try to convert one set and see if it works, hopefully I am wrong :)

There was a question from greebo if it would be useful to convert the remaining TGA files from our GUI folder. Tohelp decide, here is a list of files, sorted by their size. Maybe we shouldjust convert anything over 1Mbyte and just leave the rest. (There might also be big and unused TGA files, we could just delete them if they are no longer nec.)

 

The list was under linux generated with:

Edit: The map specific files should be moved to the respective PK4 files. I can do that if wanted.

I think it has problems, as you only specify the name of the file minus the suffix (it looks for specific suffixes) - _y, _z etc.

 

I think I remember trying to convert them to DDS and they stopped working (and I know that other DDS textures were showing up).

 

Go ahead and try to convert one set and see if it works, hopefully I am wrong :)

 

It didn't work, they turn black. Shoot. Couldn't find the code in the SDK, so it probably is in the closed renderer :(

      The FAQ wiki is almost a proper FAQ now. Probably need to spin-off a bunch of the "remedies" for playing older TDM versions into their own article.

      Was checking out old translation packs and decided to fire up TDM 1.07. Rightful Property with sub-20 FPS areas yay! ( same areas run at 180FPS with cranked eye candy on 2.12 )

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!
