UTF Editor

Being able to view ship animations would be amazing…

Cannot wait for the next release

has someone btw figured out the functionality of pris animations setup?

I believe Pris is a distance, whereas Rev is an angle. For example, the Eagle’s bay animation is Pris, where the door slides; the Dagger’s animation is Rev, where they rotate. Something else I have to do is change the XML Project to reflect that (easy enough to do in the Pris data, but a little trickier for the animation data).

The different parts of a .cmp model can be viewed by selecting a part in the Parts node. Is that not obvious?

Doh, I can be such an idiot some times. I’m glad you got that bit incorporated already!

Yeah I was talking about ship and weapon animations as well (go look and see for yourself) good to see other people are interested in that since as I said before I know of no tool that can view them and if you can get viewing them, animation doesn’t seem such a laborious task.

yes, that’s true. what i meant besides is that the pris data i saw by clicking the button of utf editor 1.4 looks about just the same as the rev data and this ofc cannot be the case as pris are linear and not rotational. so somehow it must be possible to make them visual in a different way or to edit them in a view like this.

In terms of the data structure, there is no difference between Pris & Rev parts. Of course, it is the name which is determining whether to treat min/max/channel as angle or distance. And why are you still using 1.4?

well, in the rev the value is a radiant count. tell us, adoxa, how many ingame distance units are one “radiant” in the data editor?
and i use 1.4 as i am so far used to it and it’s great so far, too. and because i do not like betas too much and have time enough to wait for the first complete release of the new editor. don’t you think i’ll stay away of progress

For a Rev node, min/max/frames use angles; for a Pris node, min/max/frames use distances (or perhaps offset might be a better term). Okay?

writing my own model viewer i encountered a crash when minimizing the 3d window.
after checking i found this bug exists in utf editor too.
so i thought im gonna post the fix, should be easy enough to port to c#.

add an event handler to the device.

this->Device->DeviceResizing += gcnew System::ComponentModel::CancelEventHandler(this, &Form1::OnResizingDevice);

the function to be called.

private: void OnResizingDevice(Object^ sender, CancelEventArgs^ e)
{
	if (this->WindowState == FormWindowState::Minimized)
		e->Cancel = true;
}

If this has already been mentioned, my apologies.

After having to restore my tower and my FL Editing apps, I have been trying to get UTF 3.0 to function. W/some help from DwnUndr, I was able to get the .net 3.5 installed, and that helped get the app to run, but when I get to try and view a .cmp file, I get this error:

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

My thx Cannon, that did the trick. As far as updates from the second link, every time I have downloaded and launch the updated exe from there, Windows pops up w/a warning msg. This version I got from Dwn which is prob a early version doesn’t. Creation date is 5/31/11. Any clue as why?

looks cool! you mean I can view Junko zane?

As a matter of fact you can, just tried it

The dfm files could not be seen as models
but I saw a “manny_stand_trent.3db” and i was amazed!
really great work… is there a way to extract the models?
The model hasn´t any texture I hope it could be done sooon

Will this work for Windows 7. Because I can’t view any CMP model.

It was designed in Windows 7. Please make sure you have all the libraries installed.

Installed DirectX Runtimes, but I still get this when I try to “Show Model”.

EDIT: Didn’t you say something about a tweak towards recompiling the application?

EDIT2: Never mind, the SVN build works better.

Version 2.2 has now been released!

First and foremost, this latest version now runs on the .NET Framework 4.5.2. This gives us more modern features and bugfixes across the board.

Here are the highlights for this new version:

• Significantly improved node copy/pasting behavior. Nodes are pasted as siblings to the current node as opposed to children (Ctrl+Shift+V allows pasting as children). Copied nodes will include all children. Pasted nodes are renamed if an existing node has the same name, and the rename is smart enough to detect the numbering pattern and continue it (useful for repeatedly pasting a node). Ctrl-selection now works properly.

• Model viewer has been ported from Managed DirectX to SharpDX, eliminating a now deprecated dependency.

• Model viewer properly updates when the UTF file is changed in the main window (e.g. adding/removing hardpoints).

• Completely redesigned camera. Now uses perspective projection, is smoother to move and pivot and zooms around the camera’s origin rather than the model’s. The middle mouse button is now used to pan.

• Moving hardpoints using the model viewer now provides a consistent and correct orientation and properly matches up when reloaded.

• Significant performance improvements when copy/pasting numerous hardpoint nodes while the model viewer window is opened.

Please report any issues you may encounter.
