Map Editor Download

[Morden Tral]

Update has been refreshed and an auto patch should be out to download modeditors. Please update and tell me how it worked guys/gals.

An error came up during update"Couldn't find part path".

You still can't place a tile with a variation larger than 255. I'll fix it if you don't know how (since you've already claimed to have fixed this).

[Morden Tral]

I had fixed it..it needs to be a short instead of a byte....must have lost that update awhile back.....i'll reinstate it.

you cant fix it since you dont have the latest source.


Don't worry about that error...it still updates, its being mad that one of the files is allready there...i'll fix that bug soon.


Oh BTW you snide little cock, if I wasn't able to fix it then you wouldn't be able to either....slag

Hahaha. Sure I would!

Have you started working on automated variations yet? If you haven't, I'd like to give that one last try. No point in me starting to try it if you have already made some progress. If you have, I'll just go back to making more function descriptions.

[Morden Tral]

Sure..try it again...I originally gave it to you anyway.

I would like to make a formula that derives it by its x,y location in the tilemap..unfortunally its aggravating because the tiles are drawn staggered. I haven't been able to convince myself to go and try and figure it out again yet.

k uh the newer editor is on noxhub.net and the New build thats only like 5mb(?) right?

[KnightTemplar]

Yeah.

[royal666]

Seenan, wern't you impersonating burn3r's account and causing trouble the other night?

[Morden Tral]

Royal..use the latest map editor update and go to the Help menu...it has an updates notification now.


Thanks to you.

[royal666]

Thanks, but the problem fixed itself for some weired reason.

[Morden Tral]

Yeah..prob my newest update

I would like to make a formula that derives it by its x,y location in the tilemap..unfortunally its aggravating because the tiles are drawn staggered. I haven't been able to convince myself to go and try and figure it out again yet.

I got most of it figured out, a.k.a it works except for a small issue with facades:
( (tile.Location.X + tile.Location.Y) / 2 % tile.numCols ) + (((tile.Location.Y % tile.numRows) + 1 + tile.numCols - ((tile.Location.X + tile.Location.Y) / 2) % tile.numCols) % tile.numRows)*tile.numCols)

I am sure there is a more efficient way of expressing this, but through some weird mental process plus a pen and paper I came up with that. The issue with the facade is that the first part of it ( (tile.Location.X + tile.Location.Y) / 2 % tile.numCols ) which is also used later, is off by a certain number of "tiles." For this to work at dunmir, it would be expressed as ( (tile.Location.X + tile.Location.Y + 40) / 2 % tile.numCols ) because it is off by 20 tiles (20*2 = 40). The internal ix is off by 12 tiles, and there is a repeating row of tile variations at the end of it for some strange reason, however, the algorithim would still make the same picture.
If that all just confused you, don't worry, I just confused myself.

[RogueTeddyBear]

I was just going to suggest that myself.

[Morden Tral]

ug..thought i had allmost that exact same formula....but i'll incorporate it...thanks.


*pout*

Code:

                   /* int x = loc.X;
                    int y = loc.Y;
                    int cols = ThingDb.FloorTiles[tile].numCols;
                    int rows = ThingDb.FloorTiles[tile].numRows;
                    int x2 = (y * 2);
                    int y2 = (y * 2);

                    if( x % 2 == 0)
                        x2++;
                    if (y % 2 == 0)
                        y2++;

                    x2 = (x2)%cols;
                    y2 = (y2)%rows;


                    Variation = (ushort)(((y/2)%cols) * ((x/2)%cols));*/

So how the fuck does yours work nigga? I even had the extra * cols and rows in an earlier version...ah well..AS LONG AS IT WORKS


WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!



*edit* HOLY FUCKING JESUS GOD OF LORD AND WAR IN MY FUCKING CUNT MOUTH!!!!

It WAS working..it wasn't calling the goddamned function...ALL MY FUCKING WORK.....i was going off of the random value that random tiles creates........
