cla3rk has joined Thursday_Night_Voxomania
02.14.06 Chas: How the heck do ya make the font bigger?
02.14.08 calyxa: hi, cla3rk
02.14.16 DocMojo: Hey, cla3rk!
02.14.17 calyxa: click in the transmission stream and then type + signs at it
02.14.29 Chas: Hi cla3rk
02.14.35 DocMojo: Chas: I don't think you can. Caly?
02.14.50 DocMojo: +++
02.14.52 calyxa: gotta click in the transmission stream first, then type + signs...
02.14.55 codini: That worked
02.14.55 DocMojo: Hmm....
02.15.09 calyxa: to make the font bigger in the transmission queue, I think it's control +...
02.15.22 Chas: Thanks cali
02.15.24 calyxa: hmm, nope.. there is a way, tho.
02.15.24 DocMojo: Uh, where???
02.15.36 chris_dickson: hang,.....i'll have a look
02.15.39 calyxa: click in the window where you want the font bigger
02.15.47 calyxa: then type + signs
02.16.20 Betty: that was one of my first questions in here <grin>
02.16.44 DocMojo: Mega-cool!
02.17.07 DocMojo: My blind old eyes have trouble with this, at 1600 x 1200 monitor res!
02.18.03 DocMojo: Hmm.
02.18.06 Betty: I had trouble at 1024. (older eyes)
02.18.12 DocMojo: "Hope I die before I get old."
02.18.18 calyxa: I've been having lots of good luck driving LFS w/ textures to make materials look 'real'
02.18.21 DocMojo: We all said that, Punk.
02.18.25 DocMojo: Then we got OLD.
02.18.42 Chas: Hey all you steely eyes mojoNauts you... Please send me some cool and groovin' animations for the gallery. I know everyone likes the more instant gratification of stills... but HEY... MojoWorld does some sweet fine animating too... and it's easy. I know I know... but render time. Well... just a little 10-20 second one would be cool. Look at it like this. The animation gallery is a wide open playground for you.
02.18.45 Betty: lol
02.18.54 codini: Hell, Mo you must be what? 62?
02.19.08 ster: its on my list
02.19.10 Chas: He's soooo old.
02.19.16 DocMojo: *3, but I look more like 82.
02.19.18 calyxa: ditto what ster said
02.19.24 DocMojo: That's "83"
02.19.35 ster: i'd like to animate some clouds
02.19.37 Chas: Thanks ster. you are one of the most steely eyes of them all.
02.19.46 ster: :)
02.19.50 ster: oui oui
02.19.52 calyxa: let me know if you need any help w/ that, ster
02.19.54 Chas: er... that's steely eyed
02.19.55 DocMojo: Yeah--no one's animated clouds yet...
02.20.02 ster: thanks caly
02.20.22 DocMojo: So, how do we increase the font size in the TQ?
02.20.25 ster: i also thought changing the offset over time would be cool
02.20.30 calyxa: I thought Bri made a wild anim that had a ton of stuff animated in it, including clouds
02.20.32 codini: hit the - sign
02.20.52 calyxa: in the q, I'm not sure, Chris was gonna dig it up and tell us.
02.20.59 DocMojo: -
02.21.07 calyxa: he's lyin, Mo
02.21.09 DocMojo: Good--thanks!
02.21.17 DocMojo: Figures.
02.21.19 codini: am not
02.21.29 DocMojo: Y'all should see Chas' face!
02.21.38 ster: its not too late ---- HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE
02.21.41 calyxa: I did, it's scary (moreso than usual)
02.21.44 Chas: So folks... what other things have ya'all been creating, or questions you haven't found the answer to yet?
02.21.49 DocMojo: He's got this gum infection and he's puffed up like Puff Daddy!
02.21.50 Betty: back at ya ster!
02.21.52 codini: figures? is that a math geek pun?
02.22.04 DocMojo: Which is funny, 'cause he so skinny...
02.22.06 ster: is hacker a demigod?
02.22.12 calyxa: yes
02.22.16 ster: :)
02.22.20 calyxa: vroom... wow.
02.22.28 DocMojo: So what questions do y'all have?
02.22.30 ster: incredible graph
02.22.36 DocMojo: Feature requests?
02.22.39 DocMojo: Anything?
02.22.49 ster: ortho views
02.22.51 Betty: yueah mo
02.22.53 Betty: yeah that is
02.22.54 ster: 4 up
02.22.57 thosk: I'm going to sound like a broken record, but "SDK?"
02.23.00 DocMojo: If you don't ask us questions, we just lapse into mtual abuse... ;-)
02.23.03 Betty: being able to save graphs
02.23.11 DocMojo: It's coming, thosk.
02.23.19 calyxa: Betty, I have a work-around for saving graphs
02.23.20 Betty: when I get one I *really* want that is : )
02.23.26 chris_dickson: +/- in the edit you want to increase the font size,....it's seems to more most of the time ;)
02.23.27 ster: what was the work around for getting a graph in to a texture
02.23.27 Betty: what Caly?
02.23.28 DocMojo: Do we still lack a "save graph" command?
02.23.33 calyxa: yeah..
02.23.35 thosk: Just being the proverbial squeaky wheel.
02.23.38 codini: Mo , that's better than your self abuse
02.23.54 DocMojo: +++
02.23.56 calyxa: give the node just above your brown 'root' note an obvious name, like THIS ONE...
02.24.00 DocMojo: No workee.
02.24.04 calyxa: then create a new texture and connvert it to a graph.
02.24.20 Betty: ahhhhhhhhhh ok
02.24.23 calyxa: then go into the graph editor, delete the nodes that are there, and use 'import from other graph'...
02.24.29 DocMojo: That's a good practice, thosk!
02.24.43 calyxa: grab THIS ONE and connect it.. and now you have a texture w/ one leaf that's the graph you want to save
02.24.51 DocMojo: You're gettin cranky like an Amurkin, Chris!
02.25.06 Betty: shoulda thought of that. Thanks!
02.25.12 DocMojo: (Chris is one of our Kiwi engineers.)
02.25.18 calyxa: Mo, you're answering to whispers again.
02.25.26 Betty: lol
02.25.31 DocMojo: Oh.
02.25.44 DocMojo: Not much fails to get by me, anymore... ;-)
02.25.58 DocMojo: Why whisper, anyway?
02.26.07 calyxa: Chris is shy
02.26.11 DocMojo: This is a pretty rough-and-tumble forum!
02.26.45 DocMojo: I tell you all one thing: It amazes me that some find the Pro UI more "intuitive."
02.26.57 DocMojo: Users after my own heart!
02.27.05 ster: it makes much more sense now more than ever
02.27.16 thosk: I certainly find it easier to understand (the pro UI)
02.27.25 DocMojo: It certainly *is* flexible!
02.27.28 calyxa: I know that changing over to the 'real' ui after I'd been doing pro stuff w/ the alpha versions was a challenge
02.27.37 ster: hey i got a question
02.27.40 DocMojo: For me, too.
02.27.45 DocMojo: Fire, Ster!
02.27.45 ster: sure
02.28.07 ster: i'd like to have a different type of terrain on my vertical slopes
02.28.19 DocMojo: Over hangs?
02.28.30 DocMojo: That's *really* hard for us.
02.28.33 ster: but i can'b do a slope blend in the terrain
02.28.36 DocMojo: But we'll do it!
02.28.58 DocMojo: All MW terrains are height fields--
02.29.01 DocMojo: that is,
02.29.13 DocMojo: single-valued functions of planetary radius.
02.29.15 calyxa: I know where you're going, ster, and it's a chicken and egg problem.
02.29.19 DocMojo: So no overhangs.
02.29.27 ster: not really
02.29.33 DocMojo: That's "mulitple values."
02.29.40 codini: how about them ones around yer waist mo?
02.29.40 smithrs: I am away.
02.29.46 calyxa: can't ask the terrain what its slope is if it hasn't been resolved yet...
02.29.55 ster: later smithrs
02.30.02 DocMojo: "It's only a model," Codini.
02.30.25 DocMojo: Ah, *that* problem.
02.30.34 ster: is it possible to get a different physical terrain on the verticals?
02.30.35 DocMojo: Classic circular logic.
02.30.45 DocMojo: No.
02.30.53 ster: k
02.30.57 DocMojo: Ask per Caly's comment...
02.30.59 calyxa: I have an idea, but I'd need to hack at it a bit first.
02.31.07 ster: proUI?
02.31.14 DocMojo: Nope.
02.31.19 DocMojo: Circular logic.
02.31.22 ster: ok
02.31.28 DocMojo: Computers are fast logic machines.
02.31.36 DocMojo: But things HAVE to be logical.
02.31.40 DocMojo: No way around it.
02.31.45 Betty: (thinks to herself... oh good. Thought it was just my incompetance)
02.31.51 calyxa: no -- using a copy of the "main" terrain as the main terrain and as a blend between the main terrain and the "on verticals only" terrain....
02.32.07 ster: that sounds right
02.32.26 Betty: brb... need a theraputic reboot
02.32.28 calyxa: considering what you've already done, that's probably enough for you to hack at it ;)
Betty has left channel Thursday_Night_Voxomania
02.32.46 DocMojo: Ah, multiple evaluations...
02.32.51 DocMojo: Those of us
02.33.04 DocMojo: from the Old School
02.33.12 DocMojo: of computer graphics
02.33.21 DocMojo: would reject that out of hand
02.33.23 codini: back in the day
02.33.36 DocMojo: as things are already too slow, w/o doing the same thing twice!
02.33.51 codini: when you had to march to computer graphic school thru the snow
02.33.53 calyxa: ha, I won't show you my latest planet then.
02.33.53 DocMojo: But hey, think outside of the box...!
