Thanks again Anael for that one liner inclusion, as it worked fine, giving no errors this time

Cheers

Ok sorry, I got your replyto email, and while im not sure how to fix it in blender,ill look into it.

EDIT EDIT: I did some quick sleuthing,and I very much see what happened...I separated mesh incorrectly is all, so thx for helping me with that Anael

thx

Spam is a literal part of life, so don't let it bother you

Just as early as yesterday,and this wasn't spam per se, but I saw a website obviously stalked at random and hijacked by extremeist groups, because I guess they have nothing better to do. I have no idea how such websites, including this one , can have setups that prevent spam &/or hijacking so all we can do is tolerate it I guess.

If anyone has any ideas for Anael on how to STOP it, feel free to share your ideas

I still don't quite see the relevance to using a 'blendmap' ( fancy name for colormap, which most standalone terrain apps produce as output ) , given the mention on these forums for using it, 'seems' to offer more control than stencil, and is easier to use ? I don't see how needing to setup shaders is easier than simply using the incredibly easy stencilmap in blender ( you don't even really need to use stencils, as you just make your model, unwrap it , load your textures, go into texture paint, , and click 'new', click on a texture as they load in the popup GUI that comes up,and start painting your model).

I think what is getting lost here, is that fact that no one is discussing  'how' you create a blendmap How is it done ?
I've never seen any blender tutorial refer to blendmaps, colormaps or anything, but if someone has a tutorial somewhere, that would be awesome, but until then at least in blender, Ill continue to use the very simple procedure of adding new textures, unwrapping mesh, go into texture paint mode, choose 'texture' in viewport shading, see over at far left of blender UI where you see a colorwheel, go down past 'alpha' that is checked, and down past that is <Texture, so click on the arrow, and click inside a red and white checked image and choose which texture you want , and then start painting . When done export to Maratis, it worked here  so it should for others. This might seem crazy complicated at first, but then anything is at first.

I'm going to make this a new post to make sure its noticed.

I removed VS2010 and kept VS 2012 for obvious reasons, and after running python scons.py, and as note by Anael about ASSIMP issues,  I am now posting the results:

LWOAnimation.cpp

scons: *** [build\win32_i386\release\3rdparty\assimp\code\LWOAnimation.obj] Error 2
scons: building terminated because of errors.

Im not sure its logical that I should ( or anyone ?) have to revert to a older version of VS just to get this working, as that means Im going backwards in features ( why I'd like to keep 2012 : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb386063.aspx ) and likely stability of a product and I'm just not willing to do that just yet if I can at all avoid it.

Short of that, I hope Anael can find the issues with Assimp , because at least so far I am having no other errors in compilation of other software.

Thx
Gm

IMG tag is already in action on these forums, and if you click 'images' near top , right corner of website as you are posting, it shows: , as an example of it's use.

You just find a place to upload your image [ I like skydrive, its so easy to use and lots of space] ( hopefully one that won't sell your info , unlike google! as we now know , which is why Im using Hotmail atm at least ) and reference it in the <img> quotes as above.

Cheers
Gm

How would I verify that if so to avoid removing VS 2010 if indeed it's not the problem ?

All I can be sure of, is that VS10 and 11, both have their own ENV VAR as shown in my computer's ENV VAR section.

thx

I tried running python scons.py and it clearly started working just fine, but then I got this:

Also it should be noted, that few are going to understand ( as I clearly didn't ) you do NOT need scons to do this, because INSTALL reads as following:

" Make sure you have Python and scons installed, open a shell and type : "python scons.py" after the build, the final product can be found in the "prod/" directory "

But anyway, - any idea what might be up ?

It's all in lua isn't it ?

To do it in c++ don't you need to create a gameplugin ?

I assumed it was Lua, because of the large lua script that rpg comes with .

I'm just curious, you say you've been programing only since December, well you must learn Very fast to do what you did, in only 4 months ;)_ I can't imagine understanding the howto of complicated logic like that, in 'under' four months. Im glad you can, it just surprises me is all ;)_)

How long did it take you to write the lua script ?

thx
Gm

A few more I want to add, from frequent use of editor:

The scroll bar on far right is far too thin, and sometimes very difficult to grab as a result.

When you go to open a project, the Files/Folders are all one color and font ( and very small as well) ,and I think that's confusing. I would also remove the / in front of folders as imho that is also confusing to the eyes ( a distraction). I think it would make sense to have folder icons'. that would clearly solve that problem.

When you create a new project , all the files go into the dir you are in, and I think it would make things a lot more tidy and logical, if all those files went into a folder with the same name as the project being created.

Thanks

I also have a 64 bit PC, and I and the rest of us who also have them, are fully capable of using Maratis

I do everyday.

AMD phenom II 3.2ghz 64bit MOBO , running windows 8 64bit.

To answer the other question, yes of course Maratis is free

If you checked the license you would see that, given searching for 'zlib' tells you everything you need to know,
as does searching for 'gpl' regarding the editors license.

I was never in doubt, as to what a stencil map was, having worked with them extensively creating texture layers.

My question was 'how do you make a blendmap', and what they are, so I'm still looking for a answer on that one ( Ill google and try to find something, but so far nothing .

Thanks btw for the GL URL, as I think all of us 'non professional/hobby'  coders need a jumpstart like that.
We already had code from Anael ( others?, don't recall atm) in the form of the 2 shaders , and 'where' they go, but I think it's maybe semi cloudy as to how to adapt them for one's purpose maybe, so yes this URL with any luck ( haven't seen it yet) will give that needed HOWto info to those whom have never used GLSL before

Thanks for the detective work

So back to my initial question, what is this blendmap being discussed, and how do YOu create one inside blender for example ?
