@Jon I'm not sure what @Pearson's strong/weak points are.

Chris McFarland

Jon's strengths are flatulence and trolling

a prestige member of any team for sure

Has anyone here ever done any 3d work on gizmos?

Trying to figure out what space to do the final translation in after I've selected an axis.

@ChrisMcFarland I also make a great guacamole

It gives you gas. Really bad gas. But it's the best guacamole you will ever have.

Creating a game alone is so... lonely... I've been studying XNA, Voxels, C#, Unity and Marching Cubes by myself since 2010... Now finally something is coming out of all the hard work. I hope it's good.

Maybe in two more years I can finish the first alpha test version

Ugh. Figures that I can't think of a game idea when I finally have some free time. At least Ludum Dare is coming up this weekend.

@Sie That's a question that can be difficult to answer about one's self I suppose.

If I had to take a venture, it would be in figuring out complex math and patterns, stuff like that.

Ali.S

@ArthurGibraltar lonely but certainly possible. @Tyyppi_77 is a great example

Arthur Gibraltar

@Ali.S I hope so. You're right. We just need patience. And coffee... And sometimes reinvent the wheel because knowledge isn't free anymore, or maybe it was never free.

but I thank the internet tutorials. At least they are free.

Q: System.Drawing.dll not found

I am creating an asset, in Unity, and I need to use System.Drawing. I have been trying to figure out how to add the DLL in a way that works, but I have had zero luck. I have tried adding the DLL to the assets folder, but it just shows up in Visual Studio as if it couldn't be found. I have also fo...

unity c#

Arthur Gibraltar

@FreeInternetPoints have you tried adding it to the Plugins asset folder? I remember you need to create a special folder right inside Assets one. It's special as Resources folder is.

like Assets\Plugins\yourDLL.dll

@FreeInternetPoints why is your name Free Internet Points? Are you a spammer or something?

Ali.S

@ArthurGibraltar it's a bot

stack exchange bot that reminds us of questions that it feels are easy to answer, but no one tried

Arthur Gibraltar

eek. Let me delete my answer then!

well I deleted there, but I can't here. Anyway, if anyone needs to add DLLs to Unity, that's the folder.

@Ali.S it's a bot that posts questions not based on "easy" or "unanswered" but when a question gets a bounty

user92578

hence free points

Arthur Gibraltar

is it a bad or a good bot?

Ali.S

@Tyyppi_77 fair enough

user92578

does anyone know who made it?

Arthur Gibraltar

I didn't even notice it was a bot.

Ali.S

@Tyyppi_77 maybe the SE staff?

user92578

could be, but I kinda doubt that

Arthur Gibraltar

marching cubes is so complicated...

I finally made normals that are shared between vertices. But the original code uses a rounding value of about 0.00001. In Unity I had to change it to 0.01. I think it's because my project has a different size between vertices or something like that.

Now I have no idea how I'll implement the triplanar texturing. Going back to searching...

first things first. How to make a shader... I forgot...

@ArthurGibraltar try open.gl

if you want to use opengl of course

try MSDN if you want to go with DX
