15:04.49BuckoCould someone tell me how to get modeltool for Linux? I looked and looked, and could not figure it out. I tried the wiki, that didn't help. I tried the topic page, that didn't help.
15:05.10BuckoHelp!
15:10.13blast007build it from the source
15:10.43blast007http://my.bzflag.org/w/BZFlag_SVN
15:10.52blast007get the SVN code and build
15:11.10blast007I'm not sure if the one in v2_0branch is as up to date as the one in trunk
15:11.26blast007but it's a under the 'tools' subdirectory
15:12.25blast007and I think you have to do at least a full ./autogen.sh and ./configure at the root of the bzflag source because you can build modeltool
15:14.42blast007before you can*
15:15.36blast007I'd recommend getting the trunk code anyway, because then you can try out 2.99.x as well ;)
15:30.16Buckothanks
15:33.10Buckoso, I just cded to the bzflag/tools/modeltool, and I "make"ed. That's correct?
15:34.51blast007yeah
15:35.07blast007after running autogen.sh and configure from the root of the source ( bzflag/ )
15:36.55blast007Bucko: http://my.bzflag.org/bb/viewtopic.php?f=65&t=13828&p=135551#p135551
15:40.53Buckohmm
15:41.05Buckois it possible for you guys to put the build on the website?
15:41.12BuckoI built it
15:41.16BuckoBut
15:41.30BuckoI don't know if it is possible to put it on the website, built.
15:41.41BuckoIs that because of variations in Linux?
15:42.23blast007no, it would be different for different versions of linux
15:42.29blast007at least more than likely
15:42.38blast007we probably don't do a static build
15:42.43Buckoah
15:42.52BuckoI can at least provide you with a debian build, lol
15:43.06BuckoI don't exactly have every version of
15:43.08blast007for your *specfic* debian
15:43.10BuckoLinux...
15:43.16BuckoOh, good point
15:43.43blast007it's not that hard to build it
15:43.46Buckotrue
15:43.51blast007five commands and you have it
15:44.01blast007and that includes 'cd' ;)
15:44.06Buckoat least Rat told me how to do it, now it's easy...
15:44.26BuckoThe BZ Linux specialist lol
15:44.48BuckoYou on Linux, Windows, or Mac?
15:45.47blast007linux and windows
15:46.20BuckoLinux is my favorite
15:46.25Buckolol!
15:46.31blast007I hope to be on all three in a couple months ;)
15:46.34BuckoOur dog just climbed up on top of the woodpile
15:48.59Buckodoes modeltool automatically correct OBJ's Y-Z rotation?
15:49.18blast007no idea
15:49.30blast007you should be exporting it correctly to begin with, I'd think
15:49.51blast007<PROTECTED>
15:51.01Buckok
15:51.22Buckodo I need to delete the .mtl files?
15:52.09blast007why would you have to delete them?
15:52.23blast007if it doesn't need it, it just won't use it
15:52.28BuckoI don't know, I just didn't know if modeltool would get confused
15:52.43blast007try it
15:52.43BuckoI've made plenty of programs that can't make sense of the things around it
15:52.45blast007it won't bite
15:52.54Buckoand one last confirmation
15:53.04Buckolod 0 is closer than lod 0.5, right?
15:53.40blast007I'm not one that would know that
15:53.47BuckoHmmmmmmm
15:53.54BuckoWinny, you there?
15:54.02Winnycould be
15:54.05Buckolol
15:54.06Buckoanyway
15:54.14Buckodo you know about the lod numbers?
15:54.21Buckoif 0 is closer than 0.5?
15:54.37WinnyI know nothing about LOD
15:54.42Buckodang it
15:54.45Buckothanks anyway
15:54.52BuckoI'll just try it and see :P
15:55.22blast007and you're not gonna do some horrible animation with LOD, are you?
15:55.50Buckowell...yes, I'm trying to
15:56.06blast007you do realize that's not what LOD is for
15:56.10BuckoYes, I do
15:56.19blast007well have fun
15:56.24Buckothank you :P
15:56.26blast007we're not really gonna help with that
15:59.26BuckoUgh, it won't open them
15:59.40BuckoCannot open, cannot open, cannot open, cannot open!
16:00.00BuckoNo valid meshes written!
16:00.02BuckoARGH!

19:38.55me1hahaha, on MW, I went off the corner jumper into the other team's base with ST, and was hanging around trying not to get noticed. They noticed me, so i hid behind a pyr. Their team gets genoed, so i go for the flag and hide, wait for them to forget about me. Then the WHOLE team drives toward me, so I wait, and shoot! turned out I had SW, not ST the whole time :P
19:39.51blast007hehe
19:41.49me1It gets better: _no one_ killed me, so I grabbed their flag, jumped out of there, and made it almost to my base before a laser shot me!
19:46.48blast007;D
