Angled water surface
« on: October 26, 2016, 06:01:55 pm »
Good day!

Please, does someone know if any of the current tools allow us to make a downflowing river - an angled water surface?

I am looking forward to your replies.

There were some tools in "what are you working on" section but I kinda doubt they were really finished and released. Adspartan is working on implementing angled water creating and editing into Noggit.

Amaroth,

I have noticed that the said adspartan has not been on this site for a relatively longer time. Please, can you, or anyone else, provide me with some information regarding the prospects of his work or of any other possibilities? It would be of a great help to me.

Made the same question had the same response, I don't know but from my little experience I find this almost impossible to do(just my opinion). Glad someone thought about this and maybe worked on it thanks to Amaroth for informing us.

That is a pity. Thank you, Bardh, and also for sharing your experience. It is very helpful.

I have already contacted adspartan, but I do not know when to expect his response - I have seen that his last visit was almost one month ago - and in my case the issue is relatively urgent.

Does someone have an another contact on adspartan and will be willing to mediate it for me, or, if possible, be willing to ask him about the prospects of his work (mainly when does he expect it might be finished and how much effective will it be) in my behalf?

I've notified Adspartan about you guys on Skype, but I kinda doubt he will just rush something and give you finalized, fully working and bug-free version of Noggit with this new water editing tool. He was more like "yep, I can do that, I want to to do that, I made a few test but its not done yet" last time we spoke about water.

That is very kind of you, Amaroth, thank you. But I do not want to actually make him abandon his other duties, which are potentially more important to him, for my/our sake, although any furthering is appreciated and undoubtly helpful.

With this current state of things in mind, I am mainly in need of at least an information about an estimated time he expects it might take him to finish the tool, so that I (and my affiliates) can accommodate to the situation.

Take an ADT that already has angled water - identify the chunk in hex - copy it into your adt and do it with trial and error while manipulating the data to see what happens.
We have wanted this functionality for a long time and I don't see it coming soon.
The above does work as I've done it....

Good day!

Are there any news regarding the "angled-water-surface tool"? Is anyone else, besides Adspartan, working on something like that?

In the moment noggit gets a rewrite to a new ui linrary and clean up the code. So i think no new features in the next time tll tjis is finished. Adspartan and all the other coders can be find kn the modcraft irc channel.
Please mark as solved if solved.
Don't ask if you could ask a question... JUST ask the Question.
You can send me also offline messages. I will answer if I get online.

Good day administrator!

I thank you for your reply. And please: Is there some sort of estimation of or can it be estimated when the completition of this "new Noggit features" might happen? And is there a chance that the "angled-water-surface tool" will be the next target of the works on Noggit? If yes, can also be such a time estimated in this case? As it is implied, here, I am in need of this tool for the project I am working on ("after-Warcraft III") and if not the tool, now, then at least these aforementioned information would greatly help me in its coordination.

And regarding that IRC Channel (if I have deciphered that line correctly): Where can it be found, please?

I am looking forward to your replies

Angled water surfaces are already in. If you compile a still-SDL version from source you will have it.
