Thanks so much for your updates! I have been following the commits on BitBucket, i appreciate your work!

Hi,

I meant more along the lines of the Map Objects to use for map building? I tried the Casc viewer but it just showed long hashes in .xxx format so not sure what to do about that.

Welp i can see the staff i imported in wow model viewer, but when i tried to equip it to my character in the client via the patch-8.mpq i made doesnt show anything. It will still bonk things over the head, but its invisible.. doesn't show a model or anything..

If anyone got a drawing tablet with pressure sensor please test the tablet branch, i want to know if it works on your type

I won't have my wacom tablet for another month or i would test.

Hmm, the Gitlab doesn't seem to be working? :[

I know you said at some point that when you place a create/object/model in the game, it will update the server database as well (or maybe generate the query for it? Cant remember) but will it also show whats already been spawned then if thats the case? Since it would be able to push to the database to spawn new things, im sure it could be pulled to, to show the locations of creatures and things already in the DB right.

@Bravelad: Check the console, whats printed there?

For the models etc, its pretty much implemented, see:

You all have made some impressive changes in a short amount of time.. Now that you have a lot of the viewing done, does this mean placing will come soon? Or will you work on something even more technical first like water support? Im sure that will be a fun one... /s but it would surely be a very welcome addition lol.

Also, i don't see a way to register on the gitlab just sign in. So im guessing it is invite only.. I guess you would rather bug reports just be in the topic rather than on the bug tracker?

Have you considered on setting up a milestone page for "things coming up" that you want to work on. Not necessarily in exact order but in a vague timeline. Each contributor could have a milestone section, or you could have 1 larger one with the contributors initials next to it.

No one likes a hard lined schedule, thats why i said a vague "what were working on right now" milestone type of thing.

I have 2 days time this weekend and will get a gfx tablet tomorrow. So i can implement my basic UI ideas and try if all also fits to tablet input.

First I will implement the basic project managment parts. To open a new project, load one. Implement the application settings and the file and project view. Then integrate the map editor as first possible editor.

The editing of ground has only rais up implemented jet. So lower simple dont work. In the moment the main focus ist planing how all should work out and cromon gives 200% to implement all the wow data stuff and rendering properly.

Ok, that sounds good! The Surface Pro 3 pen actually has 2 triggers on the pen itself that can be used, and I know the Wacom pens usually have at least 2 as well, so there might be a way to implement for instance raise and lower into the triggers of the pens themselves, Of course this could be done at a later time and wouldn't need to be researched right away.

The main thing is to have a UI format that's easy to use with a mouse, or a drawing pen. (Or implement a second UI mode in the settings for pen mode.) One thing you might want to look into is the general WinTab API the drivers are available on the surface series, and I think Wacom as a generate interface for pens. You can do some special detection methods, such as for instance.. when the pen is being used on the screen ignore the palm/hand input. So you can use the pen across the screen without accidently activating other buttons.

Anyways some of these things are kinda more specialized and I would understand if they weren't looked at or implemented I am just throwing the ideas out there in general. General Pen Support would be just as nice.

Going back to team features for a minute, it would be cool if we could some how have synced multi-map editing. All though the logistics of making sure the map chunks don't corrupt between the wow edit clients would be problematic, just the locking of the map at least (and showing it locked) would for sure be a massive helpful feature. But I have seen a few editors allow up to 8 people to edit or change the same map. But then you would have to have something like a sync-server that the user would need to run for their team to make sure the data and editor positions stay up to date.

Anyways, just talking at this point. I haven't actually used the NEO WoW Edit tool on my surface pro 3 yet, only on my beefy desktop I will download VS 2015 today on my Surface and try it out and let you know its performance. It will probably be fine though.

Keep up the good work.
