Anim8or v0.98 Discussion Forum / Re: A shadow bug
« on: April 23, 2008, 06:57:28 pm »
There is a bug in volume shadows in the scanline renderer. If you're using them then try switching to ray traced shadows.

Can you send me a (simple if possible) project that shows this? And the steps to reporduce it? It looks like there is a problema and I'd like to fix it but won't be sure I do without an example from you (since I might be seeing something differect, or whatever).

Anim8or v0.98 Discussion Forum / Re: can there be advanced mirroring?
« on: April 19, 2008, 08:43:53 pm »
Continuous mirroring of a mesh is a great idea - suggested by numerous people (including me) and I plan to add it when I next work on the modeler (soon after v0.97 stuff settels down).

Anim8or v0.98 Discussion Forum / Re: No light on back of a face ! !
« on: April 19, 2008, 08:38:59 pm »
The ART raytracer doesn't flip a surface's normal whtn it's pointed away from the light. That causes problems for some of the more advanced materials and isn't really realistic. (There are no infinitely thin surfaces in the real world which is what the scanline renderer is assumong.)
As CobraSpectre pointed out the shell tool is a good way to gove thes objects some thickness.

Yes, volume shoudows should work. But they don't. I've spent quite a bit of time trying to find the cause but haven't been able to. Sorry but that's just the way it is.

« on: April 17, 2008, 05:06:28 pm »
mcheccyb, yes, this is what it is supposed to do. From the notes on the ray tracer page: "The [specular->reflection] result is multiplied by the materials specular weight, Ks..."

When using the Text tool hot keys aren't available becuse key strokes go to the Text object. (Otherwise you couldn't change them

.as8 format is just a text file with an .as8 extension instead of .txt.

Anim8or v0.98 Discussion Forum / Re: Quick Texture Reload Feature?
« on: April 12, 2008, 12:02:38 am »
What about a reload button/command that only reaload testure files whit a changed date? That wouldn't use any time unless the texture was updated.
Alternately I might be able to add an auto load setting that updates textures whenever they are changed using a Windows notification message. I don't know how to do this but I can probably figure it out.
