That Mega drive is horrible. The link you sent me back then averaged at 3 mbps. While I can get a full 200 mbps from WeTransfer.com

yes, but you can't share files on wetranfer. you can only send to a mail and after one week the file disappear.
MEGA is the same than DropBox. you also have a client for downloading and uploading , and you can pause it and continue when you can... well... i find it a good FREE solution.

Code: Select all

defineObject{
	name = "ud_roof_01",
	baseObject = "base_wall_decoration",
	components = {
		{
			class = "Model",
			model = "mod_assets/vb_models/models_under_d/env/ud_roof_01.fbx",
			staticShadow = true,
		},
	},
	replacesWall = true,
	tags = { "VB","Under Dungeon" },
}

ud_roof_01:setWorldRotationAngles(0,90,180)


I want to create an ud_roof_rotated_01 that's automatically rotated. So I don't have to deal with world rotation scripts.

Add an onInit hook function to one of the components, that inspects the object's position and relation to other objects near it, and rotates its facing accordingly; or depending on how it's used, it could just rotate the model component itself.

A related example of this can be found in the asset pack (IRRC), with the "forest_chasm", but it's not directly applicable, not in the 'cut & paste' sense.

I was hoping someone would just post it in the code

Ah ha... But your post said, "I want to create...", so I pointed the way.

forest_heather.

Is there any way to increase the rendering distance of this specific object ?

[Isaac]

In the object definition you can change the start & end Dissolve values for the model component. The defaults are 4 & 6 (tiles) distance.
You might also consider changing the maxUpdateDistance of the animation component, as the default is 5; otherwise they will be visible, but won't move.

Code: Select all

defineObject{
	name = "forest_heather",
	baseObject = "base_floor_decoration",
	components = {
		{
			class = "Model",
			model = "assets/models/env/forest_heather.fbx",
			dissolveStart = 4,
			dissolveEnd = 6,
		},
		{
			class = "Animation",
			animations = {
				sway = "assets/animations/env/forest_heather_idle.fbx",
			},
			playOnInit = "sway",
			loop = true,
			maxUpdateDistance = 5,
		},
		
	},
	editorIcon = 240,
	reflectionMode = "never",
	minimalSaveState = true,
}

**If this is just filler for distant (inaccessible) hills, you might consider using flat plane model, with an animated texture; (or even just a static one).

About "ud_roof_01", you will have to be very specific about what it is that you want it to do.

For inside buildings I simply worldrotate them upside down.
I was simply wondering if I could simply create an object that was already 180 degrees rotated instead of having to WorldRotate manually every single roof. Not really that important.

In this clip at 0:15 you can see the normal roofs and then inside the shop at 0:22 rotated 180°

Load the model into the GMT, rotate it 180°, save it, and use in a second object.

*Or change the default object to have it swap the model (where appropriate) in an onInit hook; but in that case... you could just rotate the component instead.

--ähm ...

Or simply copy the object definition and add to the new model component

Code: Select all

rotation = vec(180, 0, 0),
