Poll : New Livestock package.

[RedKetchup]

what i see , the plant = lettuceleaf and the bucket= lettuce. i reopend the fbx and while selecting the bucklet, and gone to editable poly, at top it was still writen 'lettuce' so i changed it to 'milk' and re-exported

if i try to compile it says '(null)' ,  but if i put now the line in milkmesh.rsc:

         String _subObject = "milk";

i dunno if it accept it but i get error : cant find lettuce.rsc <= he is back to that, so there is something somewhere where is tag 'lettuce' , how does he knows that lettuce.rsc 'should' exists ?

LOL


Edit: the lettuce.rsc => lettuceTextures => lettuce.png (repainted in white)
so in the fbx it needs to paint the bucklet with the white(old green-ish) so it has certainly a link to it, he knows what to take to paint it, but i cant find where it s written in the fbx

this is why i asked your help.


if we cant get that fixed, that mean the lettuce crop MOD will be in conflit with it.

ModelDescription model
{
   MeshGroup _meshes
   [
      { GraphicsMesh _mesh [ "Models\LettuceMesh.rsc" ] } //here is another ref to it, and where its being called from
   ]
   int _displayIndex = 0;
   int _subIndex = 0;   
   bool _randomIndex = false;
}

you will have to find them all ...

[RedKetchup]

in my rawMaterialMilk i have :

ModelDescription model
{
   MeshGroup _meshes
   [
      { GraphicsMesh _mesh [ "Models\MilkMesh.rsc" ] }
   ]

   int _displayIndex = 0;
   int _subIndex = 0;   
   bool _randomIndex = false;
}


but if in the .fbx it mention it ... where i find it ??

[RedKetchup]

effectively, in the .fbx he knows very well ! i even found the name !!! but i dunno how to change it !!! HELP @graphite    !!!!!!

check the screenshot. i ve gone it the 'animation menu' => parameter editor => picked track => and it s right there : lettuce and under it : Diffuse color: map #3 (lettuce.png)

but cant find how to change the lettuce.png to milk.png /CRY

[graphite]

okay that indicates that you have not applied the NEW textures you made to the models, I'm surprised it didn't bitch when it could no longer find the old ones

go to my thread here: http://shiningrocksoftware.com/forum/discussion/1956/graphites-shed/p2

there I explain how to apply textures to models in 3dsmax.

Also go into the UI dir: there are more references to it there, check them all red

For those new to modding, this is what happens when you try a Jerry Build ... you will spend so much time chasing why it won't work, that your better off making your own asset templates, and starting with a clean slate

[RedKetchup]

i didnt applied the change, i only open the lettuce.png with photoshop and i colored the green with white and re-saved. and later on you said the same thing, to go color the green to white. nothing about i needed to go in 3ds max and change something (out to select the plant and delete ^^)

about my UI dir , everything is changed there.


gonna go check your tuto, i just hope it is written in a way i can get what you mean ^^

[Nilla]

Maybe pigs would be nice to look at but don´t bring any new aspects to the game (cows looking different) I would rather prefer milk from the cows!!! Hope you will get it.

[RedKetchup]

i ve worked like 60 hrs on that so far /shrug. me too i want it ! lol

so @graphite i did what you said in your link, i did it and saved and now.... it tells me (LOL):

Warning: Source resource 'E:\Banishedkit2\example\dairy\MaterialInstance\01-Default.rsc' does not exist, and compiled resource not found in pack!



LOLLLL

[RedKetchup]

oh i think i found how to rechange the name, in the Schematic view
it was written 01-default there. i re-written milk......





.......


....... trying to compile ........


......


YES !! it passed !!!!!!

deleting all lettuce files ..........


passed again !!!!!!!! i need to test that lololll

[graphite]

60 hrs hell man, you can't stop now LOL

go into the material editor and give the material the same name as the imaged used.

01-default is a 3dsmax naming convention for materials; lol

[RedKetchup]

i did and it passed, i deleted all lettuce files from my dir.......


i think...... i will never be able to hear or see that name: LETTUCE of my life !!!!!!!! lol


BIG THANKS TO YOU GRAPHITE !!!!!!
