Plan for Sven "RaCooN" Knie
by Sven "RaCooN" Knie · 01/22/2004 (11:11 am) · 3 comments
A new Year a new Plan (okay the "new" year already past almost by ;-))
So what did i get from the new year, work much work.
Some work i made already, some work i have to do.
first of all my priority one project the milkshape to DTS exporter.
- adding LOSCollision, is finished and Tim Gift get the source (he checked it in CVS as fast as he have some time)
- adding LoD support, is finished but i have to do some tutorials, clean up the source and send it to Tim (also i will upload a compiled version on our Homepage, so take a look in the next weeks at 3d-diggers.de, you will find it under "Arthouse" tutorials and tools
- adding Translucent Sort, not even started
- find out how the detailmaps for DTS Shapes work, yes the DTS File Format contains detailmaps and there are several functions in the TS classes for detailmaps
- adding dsq support, yes this would be a biggy ;-)
- adding IFL material support, half of this stuff is done
second on my list is to pack a new content pack. The models are made by Christian Herzog one of our freelancer. The Pack will call "Streetstuff" and contains Models for City decoration.
There are: a Hotdog Cart, 2 kiosk, 4 freight containers, 3 Newspaper Vendingmachines (with animated doors) and many more. the total count of the models is 25 all models are incl. 3 Level of Detail and 3 of them are animated. Christian did an awesome shop.
I hope we get the pack online at this weekend, so again take a look.
and the third part on my list is a really new working space for me. I began to QuArK ;-)
here some of my first babies (don't laugh it's still programmers art ;-))

dsq support might have just become easier with the latest MS release (1.7.0). I don't remember the specifics, but there was a problem with MS normalizing joints so that they wouldn't maintain rotations, or something similar. I think the MS author has fixed that in the latest release
