Merry Yule Tidings and have a very happy new year !!!

Aug’sshippackv1 is null too

I did a similar thing for Digital Brilliance a week or so ago, so I guess I’ll help with this as well over the weekend.

O.o you sure confused me here! Never mind…

thanks , good idea .

Thanks! 😄

The point was the opposite - to use two zones to mask one another, as in the mineable asteroid zone inside the bigger clear zone has no enemy ships.

But when the player tries to leave the ship-free zone with his minerals, he can be attacked no matter which direction he tries to leave the zone!

See?

I added these hacks but had probs with the last two. The others work great! Thanks!!

Not a big deal as the….

WARNING:General:set_texture_stage_state() called outside of create_buffers/destroy_buffers
and
WARNING:General:set_render_state() called outside of create_buffers/destroy_buffers

are the ones that tend to show up in droves… Out of curiosity, figured I would post.

Good guide fella =]

Maybe this

I lol’d 😄

another one

built a model with the sur builder .3. besides it doesn’t detect all hits (though some it does and im sure its even on the same part o.o) once there is a collision with e.g. a station the game stops on frame and doesn’t react until i hit my computer to standby, back again and shut down the game via process manager which (the game) until then takes up over 200k of memory.

when i open the spew there are error messages like this```
E:\FL\Scratch\Source\Common\PhyArch.cpp(198) : *** ERROR: Error reading <problem sur=“” filename=“” w=“” directory=“”>. Duplicate part ids: <part ids=“” crc=“”>. Second used.</part></problem>

did anyone had a similar problem or could even fix it?

Yes, correct.

I don’t think it is MilkShape, it’s the Sur collision calculation algorithm - it does not know about concave shapes or shapes with holes because it uses extremities of the outer vertices surrounding the shape it is checking for collisions - these are being called “Bounding Boxes”. And it makes sense that the calculation is looking for penetration within the bounding box vertices.

But no tool will be able to split for example a sphere with a docking bay or hangar in it into 4 or more parts automatically.

We can do that, but then we also need to have cmp groups with the same name, so we may as well make the sphere in 4 pieces and give each one a name, and then sur exporter can easily make the convex sur parts for each piece.

As we all know, the limit of 18 parts is a problem for the tools we have, but this next sur tool will overcome that problem.

Nice links, I’m only just starting with 3ds so theyll come in handy. Cheers

One thing I forgot to say above is that I am now successfully running all 3 sessions in one user account - it is a commercial server and additional user accounts are expensive.

Ah… one account… ;(

Dunno about multiple flserver managers in one account…

1. Variant about 3 different server managers at one user session not so good

2. Sheduled scripts for servers maintanance and restart trough flhook socket - must be good (i tried netcat - works!)

3. Half Life reanimator must properly close and restart porggys by window (first tab), but i did not checked it yet
(i will try to translate this nice program)

We’re pretty much ready to test 88 Flak if you are.

We have managed to get 3 FL Server sessions running simultaneously in our 1 user account, so we need to see if your mod controller (is it FLHook?) will control the 88Flak session without being fooled by another session.

Let’s get in touch?

FAB, Fox!!

Another revelation, thank you sir!

Do you mean as your avatar, or as a signature, or a .jpg image in a post?

I just done a little testing and found that changing the values did not effect the handelling of the ship (or any noticeable effect) but it did effect how the ship reacted to crashing into something, I found putting all the values right down (0.001) the ship wanted to continue hitting the object and kind of drag along it while putting it right up (200000) it kind of bounced off a bit more. This was just a little test and don’t take my word on the effects try it yourself.
