The matrix for your model is invalid, open the model and go to matrix mode, and set all triangles to matrix 0 (red).

[Uufje]

I have no idea what a matrix is, but I made them all red and it worked D

Thanks a lot, that was quite the nightmare.

Is it possible to be allow to enable Embedded Mipmaps for RLE compressed images? The multiplayer ? portrait (presets 0A7A to 0A7D) seems to uses these settings but the editor locks me out if I select RLE.

Very cool to know you guys! Thanks HB good week ahead here. Bummer, about being locked out that area on that. Program.

@ Carnivorous , I really like your funny trippy Avitar 😅😎

Just replace it by double clicking and should offer you the choice?

I do, and if I select RLE as the compression it blanks out the Embedded Mipmaps toggle. The editor is auto-selecting Huffman Pre-Processed when I use the auto-select, which causes artifacts on the multiplayer ? portrait specifically.

The rest of the mp portraits use Huffman, I don't know why the ? is different.

Edit: some images




I cannot enable mipmaps for RLE images (bottom left) despite this one having it enabled in the original ROM. (top left)

You don't need to use RLE. Just change to another compression in that dialog.

Alright, I'll chalk the issue up to something else then. I thought it would be nice to try and be 1 to 1 with the original ROM. Thanks.

Hope this message finds you all well!

So I've stumbled across what I'd guess is actually a good suggestion as it's something that I've been running into a bit.

Could you make it so that advanced options for the texture settings remembers the state that the user selects? I guess I'm one of those guys who'd appreciate it always being open.

At present I've shifted Dark Noon from PD to GE as I've found that Perfect Dark is simply too difficult and time consuming to work with and I'd like to actually finish this project. I've been using a lot of 64x64 textures with no mipmap levels, but whenever a model or background is imported the materials aren't always setup correctly in the editor. Would it be possible to resolve this by adding a "nomips" tag or similar so we could just code them as such, as I expect that having the editor check on import would be a nightmare of a task.

Also: Having finally got well into model editing I've got to say that the way you've setup handing the object nodes is brilliant, and it's something that I wish more programs used - in fact I used its flexibility in a discussion about improving our propriety software here at work a week or so ago too!

I don't really understand what is meant by remembering the state? It just shows the current values. Can you provide an example?

[MRKane]

Sorry - I really should write things like this when I've had more sleep! What I mean is:

In the visual editor when you open up the texture settings dialogue to have the editor remember if you select/deselect the "advanced options" checkbox, but that's really a "nice to have".

I'd still make use of a "nomips" texture flag too

Is there a way to export levels as .obj files?

Yes there is, change your "mode" to Edit Room Positions and right click anywhere in the level, and Export Full Level as .obj and Export Full Level Scaled as .obj should be in that list.

Using the UP/DN buttons to cycle through SFX in the Sound/Music tab of Game Configuration does not update any of the ADSR values, and if you do cycle using UP/DN and then select another sound through the dropdown, the sound/values appear to desync by 0x01 sound ID.

Steps to recreate

Open a GE rom in Game Config and go to Sound/Music
Change a value for the Rocket firing (I changed decay time from E3FC6 to E3FC5)
Click DN a few times (I did it until 000A)
Use drop down and go back to Rocket firing
Values are now completely different (it is using the next IDs (0001 Glass Shatter) original values)

Isn't that because those UP/DN buttons are intended for moving the current sound to a different entry? I remember clicking that on accident once and being confused by the sounds being jumbled around. (Though, I think a copy-paste function would be easier to manage)
