15:41.13ZoldenA1win any more pretty screens?
15:41.27A1winnah, been trying to figure out how to do bumpmaps
15:41.41Zoldenlike normal maps?
15:41.47A1winI kind of managed to calculate UVs and tangents but I have no idea how to actually put them into the shader
15:41.56A1winyeah
15:43.39Zoldenjust draw R and B with 127 gray, then draw red bsed on horizontal component of the angle between normal vector of mesh and intended angle; and blue - with vertical one
15:44.26Zoldenangle difference can be -90 to 90, and you just project it linearrily to 0..255
15:45.04A1winI mean the bump maps are on the textures, and I'm trying to apply them
15:45.06Zoldenthen put that generated texture to the shader, and it should work
15:45.22A1wineach texture has its own bumpmap
15:45.39Zoldenis it normal map or height map?
15:46.21Zoldenif it's height, and you need to generate normal, you jsut do some pixel calculations
15:46.50A1winnormal map
15:47.10Zoldenif it's normal, just apply it to shader's normal map :)
15:47.17A1winthe problem is that I'm using triplanar texturing
15:47.17Zoldenand you don't know how, don't you
15:47.38A1winso I need to blend the normal maps based on which texture is used, just like I blend the textures
15:47.42Zoldeni'm not aware of the meaning of that term
15:47.51A1winthen I'm running into shader limits
15:48.13A1wintriplanar texturing projects three different textures on the mesh on three different axes based on the mesh's normals
15:48.27Zoldenok
15:48.32A1winso that floors and walls use different textures
15:48.42Zoldencan you create your own shader that would allow you to do that
15:48.50A1winand it's based on world space coordinates rather than texture UV (but I calculated the UVs anyway)
15:48.57A1winthat's what I'm trying to do
15:49.17A1winI mean I have a triplanar texturing shader but I don't know how I can get these normal maps to work with it
15:49.21Zoldeni heard people are scared of shaders coding
15:49.31Zoldenbut i'm sure, you can figure it out
15:49.40A1winI guess I just need to read theory
15:49.45Zoldenyea
15:56.47Zoldenone simple raycast would save SO MUCH FUCKING TIME
15:57.10Zoldennow I have to create huge systems of data bullshit to implement simple abils ;/

20:15.57Zoldenshouldn't be complex, though
20:16.01Zoldeni mean, the formula
20:16.14Zoldenit's basics of linear algebra
20:16.22A1winyeah well
20:16.44A1winI get confused when reading math formulas, been doing too much programming languages
20:16.52A1winhttp://mathworld.wolfram.com/Point-LineDistance3-Dimensional.html
20:18.35A1winwhy do they speak in a weird language
20:18.52A1winis that last formula what I want to u se?
20:26.23ZoldenA1win check code at bottom http://algolist.manual.ru/maths/geom/distance/pointline.php
20:27.16Zoldeni tried to conceive those formulas, but it would take too much time, i'm fucking with data
20:30.01ZoldenA1win also, check vector3 class, there were some projections, maybe it's what you need
20:30.22A1winhmm how would projection help with this?
20:32.01A1winwell anyway, I'll use distance to line, and then check how far it is from the end points
20:32.05Zoldenyou need a projection point to vector

21:13.52ZoldenArcanePariah hey, aren't you there?
22:03.49A1winfinally, got it working
22:04.33A1winI didn't actually even need distance to line segment because my sample points were never too far from the start and end points

23:35.31ArcanePariahZolden: I just got home, as for EffectExecuteIndex, this is related to periodic effects. So for example, if you have a create persistent and you want the actor to do something related to the 10th period.
23:35.44ArcanePariahYou would have EffectExecuteIndex of 10
23:36.39ArcanePariahBlizzard uses it for the hellion. The hellion flamethrower is a persistent with periodic effects spaced out to form the beam, but they use EffectExecuteIndex to make the beam attach to the last periodic, which is offset the farthest away.
23:37.11ArcanePariahMore precisely, the beam is attached to a site actor, and that is created at the location of the last periodic in the create persistent
23:47.05ZoldenArcanePariah lol, great timing. You appeared right after I finally fixed everything
23:48.14ArcanePariahLmfao
23:48.26ArcanePariahStill, does my explaination make sense?
23:48.44ZoldenI knew what you said so far
23:50.02Zoldenproblem was that beam creation was happening a couple of steps (on effect tree) after the persistent effect of the index I was interested in happened
23:50.16Zoldenthis is how the result looks http://i.snag.gy/bS6oo.jpg
23:50.35Zoldenprism refracts the beam to the rainbow
23:51.12ArcanePariahVery nice :D
23:52.41ZoldenI fixed it by creating the beams and the impact sites early in the effect tree, when there is index information present, and when the damage effects happened, I moved rapidly the sites, so it looks like beams appear in time
