I can give me a minute.
Thank you @BloodW0lf!
Iâve just published a new VoxelShop version that enables you to export to uncompressed qb, which you will be able to use with StoneHearth!
Instructions: File -> Export to and disable compression in the export dialog
Please let me know if everything is working! Looking forward to some creations!
Sorry I did not try it out last night I went to bed lol. I will try it soon and you are welcome @flux
@flux I tested, look at the pictures. âpixelâ in stonehearth can show, but⊠Sometimes lack of part, you donât understand?? Is that your voxelshop lack âmatrixâ, about the âmatrixâ can refer to stonevoxel and qubilcle, believe that can help you. Come on!
This is the original production model:
@honestabelink @law @BloodW0lf Iâm not sure what is going on. Is the object maybe hidden in the ground? VoxelShop supports matrices, so I donât think that is the problem.
Would be nice to get someone to shine some light on this!
Cheers
There is a process deemed Visibility-Mask encoding⊠where the alpha byte for each voxels color data is used to store which sides of a voxel are visible.
http://minddesk.com/wiki/index.php?title=Qubicle_Constructor_1:Data_Exchange_With_Qubicle_Binary
Visibility-Mask encoded (4): If set to 0 the A value of RGBA or BGRA is either 0 (invisble voxel) or 255 (visible voxel). If set to 1 the visibility mask of each voxel is encoded into the A value telling your software which sides of the voxel are visible. You can save a lot of render time using this option. More info about this in the section visibility-mask encoding
My guess is that VoxelShop is not encoding that alpha byte with the correct data⊠resulting in the voxels not showing up.
@flux read over the link I posted about it⊠itâs a simple bit shift and some voxel polling⊠(is voxel here⊠is voxel there)
Again this is just a guess
Thanks for the feedback @honestabelink
However I check carefully that my exported files are identical with those provided to me. So visibility mask encoding shouldnât be the issue.
Is there a certain size the matrix has to be for StoneHearth to use it?
Would be nice to have the same files exported from VoxelShop and from StoneVox, so I can see the difference!
i can say that i have exported 2 files with the same matrix size one got in game the way i want it to be, the other got cut 10 voxels and i could not make it work. i try change the size of the matrix, change the place the voxels are in and nothing work.
@flux Model can be normal operation in the stonehearth now, this is very good, but, canât modify the size, model of matrix is a little pity, I hope to improve. You can do!
Sure, can you explain why that is important?
Thanks!
@flux I cite an example, such as the models of the characters, 31 x 31 x 41, is a matrix of size, model of the actual filling size is smaller, the size of the matrix, related to many aspects, making weapons, equipment, has a relationship, so the size of the matrix is very important. You see I made model and screenshots, you can understand what I said?
This is normal model:
The exported models of voxelshop :
Added an option to use the bounding box (you can change the size) as matrix.
Does that work for now?
@flux, I tested again. Right, it increases the multiple layer of the matrix, also increase the visibility Settings, but where is the size of the modified matrix??? I canât see, it is like the red box on the picture?? I tried, I canât. Voxelshop matrix of the model is the smallest rectangle of pixels of space, and donât understand what I say? Then you can see the pictures
Wait, I now, seems to be mirror model, upside down, is inverted, you test?
This is the picture, can you see?
@law Iâm not sure what your problem is. It works perfectly for me:
Note: Currently you can not define different matrix sizes per layer (only global)
@flux Sorry, I was too careless, I did not see the green box text, very successful, you are wonderful,
hope :can define different matrix sizes per layerăBecause of this, it is more convenient to the animation. Right, what time to add the production of skeletal animation?
Glad it works now!
I need to rework the internal data structure next and then I will get to animation! Before animation will be useful it will still be a whileâŠ
Effort! I look forward to your work
Can you enable to have a bounding box with less than 4x4x4? because for somethings i want to make at least one dimension 1 or 2 voxel size.
For the rest, working alright!! good job making this.
