Hi,

is it possible to Hide and Show loaded Maps? ,

Hi,

is it possible to set an Entitys RenderPosition? In Blitz3D this was EntityOrder.

The problem is when I use z-sort as Material Flag, the Model are not affect by a Light.

Here are some Pictures:

The Plane are pointed to the Camera. When the z-Sort Flag is false, the plane affected by the light.

But I need z-Sort to Render the Plane before the Planet.

Hi,

another problem. After rotating the Plane, the Effect don't work.

Are the VertexNormal are not rotating too?

September 7, 2014

Ok, thanks all for help.

I think I have the solution:

//Get the Plane Normal
Surface* surface = mPlane->GetSurface(0);
Leadwerks::Vec3 V1 = surface->GetVertexNormal(1);
//Get the Differenz between Camera and Plane
Leadwerks::Vec3 V2 = camera->GetPosition() - mPlane->GetPosition();

//Normalize the Vectors
V1 = V1.Normalize();
V2 = V2.Normalize();

//The Dot Product
float dot = V1.Dot(V2);

//ABS
float dotAbsolute = Leadwerks::Math::Abs(dot);

cout << dotAbsolute << endl;

mPlane->SetColor(1, 1, 1, dotAbsolute);

Ok, i need exactly this effect:

September 5, 2014

Hi,

I need the Angle between a Plane and the Camera:


Leadwerks::Vec3 V1 = mPlane->GetPosition();
Leadwerks::Vec3 V2 = camera->GetPosition();

// turn vectors into Normals
Leadwerks::Vec3 V1n = V1.Normalize();
Leadwerks::Vec3 V2n = V2.Normalize();

//the Dot Product
float dot = V1n.Dot(V2n);

//And the Angle
float angle = Leadwerks::Math::ACos(dot);

But the Angle is not correct.

Hi,

is it possible to change the fontHeight?

I have only found Font->GetHeight()

but I need Font->SetHeight()

Thanks

Thank you Ma-Shell.

Now it works.

August 13, 2014

Thank you for your Reply.

I have include the lib about this manual:

http://www.jenkinssoftware.com/raknet/manual/tutorial.html

Before, I have start a new Leadwerks Project and that compiled without errors.

August 13, 2014

Hi,

I have Include the Raknet Library as described in this manual.

http://www.jenkinssoftware.com/raknet/manual/tutorial.html

But when I compile the Project, there are many Errors:

Hi,

does anyone have an idea how to implement an Planet Glow Effect like this picture?

July 29, 2014

Ok, first i calculate the new Planet Positions with:

//calculate the planet Position

yaw = yaw + 0.5;

float ny = Math::Sin(soll_pitch) / Math::Cos(soll_pitch);

float nx = Math::Sin(yaw);

float nz = Math::Cos(yaw);

then normalize

//normalize vector

float factor = sqrt(nx*nx + ny*ny + nz*nz);

nx = nx / Math::Abs(factor);

ny = ny / Math::Abs(factor);

nz = nz / Math::Abs(factor);

and last position

planetSphere->SetPosition(nx*planetDistancetoSun, 0, nz*planetDistancetoSun);

this works for the X and Z Axis.

But now I would like calculate the Y Axis like 45° or another °.

July 28, 2014

Hi,

for my Project, I must calculate the Sphere Position with Sin and Cos on the x/y/z axis.

There is a Error in the Orbital Inclination calculation. My Math in Sin and Cos are not so good ;-)

Ok, i can use a Pivot and the move and turn Commands, but I need the calculation for later work without

the Models.

Here are my Code:

#include "App.h"
using namespace Leadwerks;

//Create a window
window = Leadwerks::Window::Create("OrbitInc");

//Create a context
context = Context::Create(window);

//Create a world
world = World::Create();

//Create a camera
camera = Camera::Create();
camera->Move(0,2,-10);

//Hide the mouse cursor
window->HideMouse();

//std::string mapname = System::GetProperty("map","Maps/start.map");
//Map::Load(mapname);
//Create a Light
Light* light = DirectionalLight::Create();
light->SetRotation(35, 35, 0);

//Create Sun Sphere
sunSphere = Model::Sphere();
sunSphere->SetColor(1.0, 1.0, 0.0);
sunSphere->SetScale(2.0,2.0,2.0);
//Create Planet Sphere
planetSphere = Model::Sphere();
planetSphere->SetColor(0.0, 0.0, 1.0);

}

{
if (Orbital_inclination == false)
{
Orbital_inclination = true;
}
else
{
Orbital_inclination = false;
}
}
Leadwerks::Time::Update();

//calculate the planet Position
yaw = yaw + 0.5;
float ny = Math::Sin(soll_pitch) / Math::Cos(soll_pitch);
float nx = Math::Sin(yaw);
float nz = Math::Cos(yaw);

//calculate the Orbital_inclination
if (Orbital_inclination)
{
float ist_yaw = Math::Mod(yaw,360);
float p_weg = (ist_yaw * 100.0) / 360.0;
float winkelWeg = (2 * pitch);

Hi,

thank you Shadmar for your reply.

Here are my problem.

Have you an Idea to solve this problems?

Thanks

Schoppy

July 5, 2014

Hi,

first, Thanks shadmar for the great Glow Shader.

I need this Shader on a Plane with an Alpha Texture.

The Problem is, that the Glow Shader only works with the Solid Blend Mode.

Is it possible to use the Glow Shader with the Alpha Blend Mode?

Thanks.

Thank you tjheldna. Now it works.

June 25, 2014

Hi,

see the Attached Image.

In the Left Image is Leadwerks 3.0 with the correct Texture.

On the Right Image is Leadwerks 3.1 & 3.2 with a 1px line under he same Texture.

Is it a Bug?

Hi,

i have played with your code. The problem is:

self.entity:SetRotation(inclination)

inclination is a Quad and a Quad has 4 values. x, y, z, w.

And SetRotation accept 3 Values

EDIT: Oh Sorry, i see SetRotation accept a Quad.

February 6, 2014

Hi beo6,

I have played around with your sample. The Problem is that the pickinfo.normal.y is allways a possitive value.

Its right, it works on one side of a hill. But on the other side the value must be negative. But it is positive.

I do not know why this is so.

February 4, 2014

Yes, I have played with AlignToVector, too. It works and rotate the Model in the right Position.

But for the Movment I have use SetVelocity and I have a flickering problem too.

I think the problem is that AlignToVector breaks the Physic System.

Ok, I thing it is Time for some Code (C++).

Here I have write a little example with 3 Methods to Navigate a Character to a specific Position.

All three Methods has his own problems.

You can switch the Method with this lines:

// Set Method

int method = 1;

#include "App.h"

using namespace Leadwerks;

App::App() : window(NULL), context(NULL), world(NULL), camera(NULL) {}

App::~App() { delete world; delete window; }

Vec3 camerarotation;
#if defined (PLATFORM_WINDOWS) || defined (PLATFORM_MACOS)
bool freelookmode=true;
#else
bool freelookmode=false;
#endif

Entity* characterController;
Entity* characterMesh;
PickInfo pickinfo;

NavMesh* navMesh;
NavPath* path;

Model* box;
list<Model*> models;
list<Model*>::iterator modelsIt;

int pointCounter = 1;

// ####################### Character Move Methods ########################
// Set Method
int method = 1;

//method 1 = Standard Character Move Method ( only on xy Axis while SetPhysicsMode(Entity::CharacterPhysics))
//method 2 = Character Contoller is only a Pivot. The Charcter Model Follow this Pivot by SetPhysicPosition and Rotation (Problem the Model Collides with the Pivot and looks ver bad!)
//method 3 = Calculate the Path Manuel and move and rotate the Model. (The Rotation is Bad and sometimes the Model collides with a wall)

Maybe we'll find a solution together.

I think that this is also interesting for others, too.

Oh sorry, I am working on an little Tank RTS Game.

I use the Navmesh to navigate the Tanks on the map.

With a Character Controller it works very good. But the problem are hills.

The Tanks rotate only on the y axis (Character Controller).

What i need is a rotation upward/downward for the tanks, see first picture.

Ok, but with this way i cannot use the GotoPoint Command.

February 3, 2014

The problem is that I used a Character Controller.

See Ricks answer. "Character controllers only rotate on the y axis (turns left/right)."

With a Character Controller the Physics are not working.

Thanks for the answers.

Ok, my Idea is to parent 2 boxes, one on the Frontside and one on the backside from the tank.

Then I can check the height difference between the two boxes and calculate the Rotation Angel.

What I need is a Pick Y Command on the box to check the Y Coordinate.

Which command is the best for this?

And second the Rotation Angel, i think ATAN2 is right?
