Atlas Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Before we go on, just know that this is a SUDDEN problem and i have been happily using modview for quite some time now now, on with the problem. lately whenever using modview, any parts of any model that can be surfed off (IE: Utility belts, vests etc etc) look really choppy. and also generally the area around the mouth and eyes, and the wrists. I've tried reinstalling The JK2 editing tools, nothing seems to work, if anyone has an advice, it would be much appreciated.

Hellfire Jedi Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Its something that A. Was surfed off B. Not skinned I believe thats the problem.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tFighterPilot Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 So how do you explain, that it happened suddently, and I tried 2 models (Rebel and Vader) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas Posted August 20, 2003 Author Share Posted August 20, 2003 No, it does it on ANY skin or model, they all worked properly before, including the skin in the picture. Edit: I just realised the link to the screenshot links you to this thread again, at least it does for me. if you have this problem, copy and past the link into your address bar and it should work fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wudan Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 It has to do with the geometry, there must be some view setting that you just tweaked, or you just upgraded/replaced your video card or changed settings on it - I've used modview on several different computers and it does this on crappy computers. I'd lend you my Dragon (which can render models) but it's not fully ready for this kind of thing yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll look into it, thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wudan Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Originally posted by Corsair13 What's your Dragon? It's my model renderer / animation program. I wrote it, which is why I like it -- http://users.sisna.com/tokyopop/construct4.jpg It has Gourad vertex lighting, just like JK2, and someday it will be able to utilize shaders just like JK2, so that complex skins and shaders can be tweaked without the annoying process of starting up JK2 (or JA) to have a look at the model and skin.

tFighterPilot Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 I can't wait to see your program. Couldn't you think of a more original name, though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Wudan, how much of the shader code are you going to be rewriting? I was thinking about doing that for another project, but it proved too daunting. I could do blend modes, some specularity and that, but I would start having a hard time with vertex deformation and tessellation, and especially the new per-pixel light effects JA has.

Matthewd Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 Sounds cool wudan, how'd you learn to code stuff like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tFighterPilot Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 You done it with Visual C++, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 Wudan uses the Dev-C++ IDE for C++. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wudan Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 All the tools I use are completely free I'm not that great a coder, as I'm teaching myself as I go along, but I've got a C book, and I'm getting a C++ book soon, as well as some more function reference books. Most of the code is written in a very straightforward C, although it is technically C++, I only use a few C++ specific conventions. Emon, dunno, shader support isn't a tip-top priority, but I understand that it would prove very useful to skinners, so I do plan on adding this at some point. I'm at a dry spell atm, any new features are going to have to come after a general code cleanup Anyway, this isn't my thread, sorry for hijacking it.
