| 01:51.34 | Bounty | Hey DeadZergling, did you ever ttry exporting the model with art tools? |
| 01:51.57 | DeadZergling | no, I never had success importing it |

| 02:36.02 | Bounty | watcha think? |
| 02:38.06 | DeadZergling | taking a look now |

| 02:41.05 | DeadZergling | would throwing more stuff going on behind the goals be possible? |
| 02:41.19 | DeadZergling | like buildings, orcs working, I don't know, just anything other than just sky |
| 02:41.23 | DeadZergling | I think that would help |
| 02:41.24 | Bounty | Yeah, that is where I am considering placing titans :) |
| 02:41.54 | DeadZergling | yea, I like it as it is, just know you are looking for ways to make it even better |
| 02:41.59 | DeadZergling | so being extra critical :) |
| 02:42.03 | Bounty | Of course |
| 02:42.43 | DeadZergling | oh by the way, did you know I was doing feedback playthroughs of maps with my headset now? |
| 02:42.49 | Bounty | I am thinking about jsut making it Naga VS Some other species |
| 02:42.54 | DeadZergling | be happy to do that for some of your new stuff if you like |
| 02:43.00 | Bounty | Sure :) |
| 02:43.46 | DeadZergling | I might close up shop for requests for others, but I won't mind checking your stuff out still |
| 02:44.11 | Bounty | I wonder who would be a good representative for the Naga |
| 02:44.14 | Bounty | as their "Titan" |
| 02:44.22 | DeadZergling | probably be a nice break from my latest brick wall/pool of confusion in my RPG |
| 02:44.26 | DeadZergling | I run into those a lot |
| 02:44.37 | DeadZergling | Naga, who is that? |
| 02:45.15 | Bounty | the lizard/fish people lol |
| 02:47.17 | DeadZergling | hrrrmm, are you just picking any model, then super sizing it, or are there titan models you have in mind? Like that one I couldn't export yesterday |
| 02:47.47 | DeadZergling | Because basically, what I'm going to have to do in order to do what you want, is make notes of EVERYTHING about the model, save it as a 3dsmax file |
| 02:48.08 | DeadZergling | then adjust the 3dsmax file to be the same as the original, then export that file as m3 |
| 02:49.23 | Bounty | Neptulon looks like a good choice lool |
| 02:49.58 | Bounty | Most models work fine by default DZ |
| 02:52.23 | DeadZergling | I may actually do that particular request of yours though |
| 02:52.33 | DeadZergling | it would likely take me hours, but I'd use it in my RPG somehow too |
| 02:56.13 | Bounty | Here DeadZergling |
| 02:56.14 | Bounty | https://www.dropbox.com/s/o1tarb6ibc8xlob/SC2%202015-07-17%2022-54-53-22.png?dl=0 |
| 02:56.18 | Bounty | Thats what I mean |
| 02:57.44 | DeadZergling | you know, just had a fun idea |
| 02:57.59 | DeadZergling | what if the titans smack the opposite team if they get too close to the goal |
| 02:58.46 | Bounty | lol |
| 02:58.52 | Bounty | That is one hell of a goal keep :) |
| 02:59.13 | DeadZergling | I think it'd be a fun mechanic |
| 02:59.26 | DeadZergling | but anyways, your game, just thuoght I'd throw that out there |
| 03:00.02 | Bounty | No, its an interesting idea |
| 03:00.09 | Bounty | If I could make it work without it feeling cheap/lame |
| 03:00.17 | *** join/#sc2mapster DeadZergling2 (322e866d@gateway/web/freenode/ip.50.46.134.109) |
| 03:00.48 | DeadZergling | well it'd be good incentive to not get too close when trying to score |
| 03:01.02 | DeadZergling | and you could even use it to your advantage if you need to defend your goal in a hurry |
| 03:01.15 | DeadZergling | and finally, it'd be a reason for said titan to exist |
| 03:01.24 | DeadZergling | anyways, going to be away awhile, need to drive home now |
| 03:01.33 | DeadZergling | will catch up with you in an hour or two if you still on |

| 19:59.28 | duckies | notices a kitty |
| 19:59.41 | Helral | hey Duckies ;) |
| 20:00.07 | duckies | oh hey there kitty, everyone left for unity I heard. Nothing but nothing in here |
| 20:00.22 | Helral | oohhhhh :( |
| 20:00.58 | duckies | at least the most talkative people did |
| 20:01.05 | Helral | hehehe |
| 20:01.09 | duckies | others just disappeared, like kueken |
| 20:01.35 | duckies | nobody knows where he went, but he isn't with us anymore |
| 20:01.52 | duckies | at leaset we have ArcanePariah :D |
| 20:02.26 | duckies | I suppose we'll see who's really here in 3 months, isn't that right? :> |
| 20:04.13 | Helral | I prolly own't be. |
| 20:04.45 | Helral | Was playing around with LotV earlier, and thought about sc2mapster then. |
| 20:04.53 | Helral | so I'm just here checking out how it is going. |
| 20:05.13 | Helral | also posted a new tutorial on the forums, and answered an UI question as well. |
| 20:05.27 | duckies | well, we don't even have newbies asking questions here anymore >_> |
| 20:05.38 | duckies | I suppose pre-expansion drought |
| 20:06.20 | duckies | so how's lotv? |
| 20:09.53 | Helral | well the campaign has a nice storyline for it... |
| 20:09.59 | duckies | =D |
| 20:10.24 | Helral | Although some of it felt for me like an again situation. |
| 20:15.36 | Helral | you working on any projects? |
| 20:31.58 | ArcanePariah | Hello Helral |
| 20:32.08 | Helral | hey |
| 20:32.13 | ArcanePariah | Long time no see |
| 20:32.23 | Helral | :) dunno for how long I'm back. |
| 20:32.49 | duckies | just refusing to move on in life by making a bw-like hero roamer, nothing worth mentioning >.> |
| 20:32.59 | ArcanePariah | As for editor questions, I'm usually answering them. |
| 20:33.03 | duckies | also helral, won't you be back at lotv release for campaign? :0 |
| 20:33.16 | ArcanePariah | I've datamined much of the changes in Void/Storm |
| 20:33.24 | ArcanePariah | UI stuff is getting decently enhanced |
| 20:33.30 | Helral | probably, but I might not be online at sc2mapster though. |
| 20:33.37 | Helral | ow they're changing UI-stuff? |
| 20:33.48 | Helral | or better said, have changed ;p |
| 20:34.17 | ArcanePariah | The ingame UI editor has an asset lookup screen, you can lookup textures by path or reference, text by reference, styles (this has a dropdown menu) and sounds by reference |
| 20:35.00 | ArcanePariah | Also, from what I've datamined, there appears to be a new view in the UI editor, you can toggle between XML view and frame view. NOt sure what frame view is, could be a WYSIWYG setup |
| 20:35.34 | ArcanePariah | As for projects, I'm currently working on NOTD 2, been doing so for the last year and half, looks to be another year and a half to complete it |
| 20:35.53 | ArcanePariah | Oh, right, UI has one MAJOR upgrade in Void/Storm |
| 20:35.59 | ArcanePariah | It now can do animations |
| 20:36.15 | ArcanePariah | You can have frames mmove, play sounds, cutscens, etc. |
| 20:36.36 | ArcanePariah | Let me get an example you can see. |
| 20:36.45 | Helral | that is new. It used to be only possible with model frames (think it even was blizzard only). |
| 20:36.59 | ArcanePariah | Yes, it is now for damm near everything |
| 20:38.13 | Helral | I wonder what people will create using that new feature. |
| 20:39.01 | ArcanePariah | Ahli has already created an observer interface for storm with it |
| 20:39.18 | ArcanePariah | https://pastee.org/pmc8b |
| 20:39.24 | ArcanePariah | Here is an example of the animation stuff |
| 20:39.36 | ArcanePariah | There are a number of controller types, including ones to send events to other frames |
| 20:40.34 | ArcanePariah | Events are sent from the game, but triggers can also send events |
| 20:40.58 | ArcanePariah | Thus, you no longer need triggers to do a great deal of the hide/show of various UI elements |
| 20:41.27 | Helral | nice, that should save trigger space. |
| 20:41.49 | ArcanePariah | Here is another example, where it shows a frame can sent events to other frames |
| 20:41.51 | ArcanePariah | https://pastee.org/ujhxx |
| 20:42.30 | ArcanePariah | Actually, in this case, I think this frame is reacting to events in the parent frame |
| 20:42.34 | ArcanePariah | or parent/parent frame |
| 20:42.46 | ArcanePariah | But yeah, it can get very creative |
| 20:43.05 | ArcanePariah | If you want a more visible example, just play Heroes of the Storm |
| 20:43.14 | ArcanePariah | All the various UI stuff is done this way. |
| 20:43.42 | Helral | Hmmmm.... blizzards HotS, I guess? |
| 20:44.42 | ArcanePariah | Yes |
| 20:46.07 | ArcanePariah | Unfortunately we don't ahve the Void/Storm editor yet |
| 20:46.20 | ArcanePariah | But that matters little to me |
| 20:46.49 | ArcanePariah | At some point I'm going to put together everything I know that's changes in Void/Storm |
| 20:47.26 | Helral | I'd say make a post about it and tell Sixen so he can put it on the front page of sc2mapster ;) |
| 20:47.50 | ArcanePariah | Perhaps, I did do a lengthy post about things I learned from examining the changes in the editor layout files |
| 20:48.14 | ArcanePariah | Although the editor is not in Void/Storm, the file that are used to describe its layouts are still in the core module |
| 20:48.59 | ArcanePariah | THere are some very useful additions to the editor coming. A data wizard of some kind, though no details. A way to isolate data into its own XML file, so you can filter by it. Blizzard is doing this for each hero in Storm |
| 20:49.19 | Helral | nice |
| 20:49.42 | Helral | probably makes the abilities better managable |
| 21:00.24 | Helral | I just adjusted an answer I gave to someones UI question. http://www.sc2mapster.com/forums/development/gui/78731-hiding-upgrade-levels/?page=2 |
| 21:02.59 | Helral | as well as the tutorial I made in response to the question: http://www.sc2mapster.com/forums/resources/tutorials/81314-ui-how-to-alter-runtime-created-ui-elements/#p1 |
| 21:03.26 | Helral | I've got to keep myself busy somehow ;p |
| 21:06.52 | Bounty | What data fields do you need to edit/change to make a "damage" effect be based on a units facing? |
| 21:08.39 | Helral | what do you mean Bounty? like in the unit needs to turn to face the target to use the ability? or??? |
| 21:10.40 | Helral | I know that there is an arc property for the search area's. |
| 21:10.45 | Bounty | nvm, impact location just needs to be set to "Source Unitt" |
| 21:10.52 | Helral | hehehe ;) |
| 21:11.07 | Bounty | just a damage effectt radius being based on the casters facing is what I was trying to do |
| 21:11.09 | Helral | So what are you working on now-a-days Bounty? |
| 21:12.12 | Bounty | this atm - https://www.dropbox.com/s/nk7av7bawg1qxh7/Aqua%20League%20-%20Arena%20of%20the%20Gods.wmv?dl=0 |
| 21:12.37 | Bounty | You can ignore the water elemental player model, that will not be the case in the final version |
| 21:12.43 | Bounty | it will be Naga VS Revenents |
| 21:14.26 | Helral | Hmmmm a soccer-like game |
| 21:14.42 | Bounty | Sure |
| 21:14.59 | Helral | is it mouse controlled or keyboard controlled? |
| 21:15.09 | Helral | looks keyb. |
| 21:15.19 | Bounty | both |
| 21:15.26 | Bounty | WASD move and mouse camera |
| 21:15.33 | Bounty | hitting the ball is done automatically |
| 21:15.40 | Helral | mouse for camera, keyb for move. How are the lag issues these days? |
| 21:15.44 | Bounty | when you run into it (when facing it) |
| 21:15.53 | Bounty | not to shabby |
| 21:15.56 | Helral | WASD used to be not viable for movement in the old days. |
| 21:16.01 | Bounty | not even close to how bad it was back in the day lol |
| 21:16.27 | Helral | so it has improved a lot then. |
| 21:16.30 | Bounty | It is definitely viable |
| 21:16.42 | Helral | I also see that the models and gfx have improved as well. |
| 21:16.59 | Bounty | those are all WoW models |
| 21:17.04 | Bounty | >.< |
| 21:17.15 | Helral | made available by blizzard or self-ported? |
| 21:17.29 | Bounty | self ported |
| 21:17.43 | Helral | I did hear that blizzard released War3 models |
| 21:17.56 | Bounty | the contest is fantasy themed so... what better source of models then WoW? :) |
| 21:18.05 | Helral | ahhh for the contest. |
| 21:18.29 | Bounty | I'm aiming for 4 games to submit this year |
| 21:18.35 | Bounty | Well on track lol |
| 21:18.40 | Helral | ;) |
