« first day (836 days earlier)      last day (3179 days later) » 

Oh, I was putting it in v.1 because that's the only one that I saw players in
and the .blend
@GiantCowFilms ^^
 
12:20 AM
@TARDISMaker Can you make a pull request
 
@GiantCowFilms Not sure how
 
@TARDISMaker Done for you
I can too evidently
 
Okay
 
:D
it works
I can play with you in 5 mins
just gotta clean something up first.
 
Okay
 
12:28 AM
@TARDISMaker Alright, I'm back!
 
Okay
Is my map in?
 
I've joine and am ready!
How did you figure giving me 100 troops and you only 80
also you have double growth???
 
What?
 
that is not mathematically balanced...
 
Weird
 
12:30 AM
O.o
 
I basically just duplicated the objects in Blender
I have no idea how to change the growth either
 
@TARDISMaker That is defined by the radius
as it is when we play
I think I know what to do though to fix it, do you mind?
 
No, not at all
 
Nice composition of planets
 
Thanks
 
12:34 AM
@TARDISMaker Try joining now.
That secound big planet vanished
Have to add him back in... :/
 
Oh, I thought you purposely removed it
 
no, it is ugly without it
 
Is it ready?
 
alright, lets play again, the missing planet as returned
@TARDISMaker yes
We are severly out of sync here
@TARDISMaker There was a sync error
 
Okay
 
12:44 AM
You troops were coming from nowhere
lets try that again
ready
Again the issue
Reset the intire game, lets try this now.
You're using an up to date computer, right?
 
The computer it's self isn't
I'm on Windows 7 right now thoguh
 
I've won on my end
@TARDISMaker There is some serious error
 
yeah
It was definately out of sync
 
Your moves are being delayed by well over a secound...
hows you internet doing
on the right bar there will be a thing that tells you your latency, what does it say
 
about 60ms
 
12:53 AM
Not too bad...
not enough to account for that level of delay
 
I think it was doing good earlier
This afternoon
 
Yah
its doing good between two clients here, I wonder what was the matter
 
Now it's staying around 60ms
 
Lets try playing again. Check the console for any errors
Wow the lag really really really set in that time
I've won on my end
I wonder what could be the matter
@TARDISMaker
 
I'm winning on minej
 
1:00 AM
Is your internet fine
My server looks in order
 
@GiantCowFilms I have a slow connection
That's it
 
@TARDISMaker But how slow
I mean we are talking a sudden 30+ secound delay time here
 
Hello
 
really slow
 
@animaacija Hey!
@TARDISMaker Is the connection inconsistent
?
 
1:01 AM
@GiantCowFilms That much!
@GiantCowFilms I don't know
 
It was working fine then suddenly it went bannas
 
I remember when I was pinging stackers server to see what it was it went from 150ms to around 500ms
 
Is there a selection tool in blender like this:
For example i place coloring explosive in a room, and it selects where color hit
 
@animaacija If I understand that correctly, no, I don't think so
 
Like Mr.Been once tried to color his room..
 
1:03 AM
@animaacija I loved that episode....
 
@GiantCowFilms maybe we should just try again tomarrow
 
@TARDISMaker Yah
 
Ughh ... i thought so .. well it might be few lines of python uh ?
 
@animaacija More then a few
 
I gotto go
 
1:04 AM
cya
 
C ya
Ill do it by hand ... no time to write code now. I do not even know how to google for such a too.. but somebody must have written it ...
 
 
15 hours later…
3:56 PM
OH yeah!!!!!!!!!!
privledges!
Am I the only one who clicks BACK when I see FBX in the question?
 
4:13 PM
@GiantCowFilms so that is the new privilege that added.
neat
 
:D :D :D
I love graphs!!!!
 
no fair, it looks better then the stuff we have in the mod tools.
 
You have it too
 
sure, I have over 5000 rep
 
So abandon the MOD tools and use the pleb tools
 
4:16 PM
@GiantCowFilms we get more data. :) just your is nicer displayed.
BIG down side is that new privilege will go away soon. 25,000 rep on a full site. :(
 
@David Ohh
That is alot
@David I think that is a little steep considering only one user is currently at that rep level
and only about 10 are probably going to get there in the near-ish future
I like that I now am a 10k'er in chat.... :D
no special power yet...

A: Using the face edit mode as a texture in bge

GiantCowFilmsI have arrived at an imperfect approximation. It will create the effect, but has some flaws: Edge lines will be inconsistently thick. Center point may not be exactly centered. However, the result is definitely passable: To create this, you need a few steps: UV unwrap it. You U>UV unwrap ...

I'm answering again!
 
5:17 PM
Why... does this keep getting UVs
61
A: Change pivot or local origin of an object

iKlsROne way to do this is by entering Edit mode and placing the 3D cursor where you want the new origin. (When doing this, you can be very precise by selecting vertices, edges or faces and using them as guides. If you pick several points and snap the cursor to them using Shift+S → Cursor to Selected,...

I've made 600 rep from this
I get an upvote every other day
48
A: What's the quickest, easiest way to point the camera somewhere in blender?

iKlsRThe absolute quickest way to do this is to find a good position in the 3d viewport by navigating as normal with the mouse. Next, select the camera and use Ctrl + Alt + Numpad0 or from the 3d view header, View > Align View > Align Active Camera to View to position/point the camera in the direction...

Did everyone get the site analytics priv?
 
@GiantCowFilms That was just added as a privilege?
That's pretty cool
 
The mod view is a bit more advanced but this is good.
@TARDISMaker We've had it forever, pretty sweet they rolled it out to the community.
 
@iKlsR Yeah
Hopefully in the next few monthes I can get to 10k or so, then I'll be almost halfway there
Isn't it kind of weird how before you have 1k rep, you think in hundreds, but once you reach 1k, you're always thinking in thousands?
And I bet gandalf thinks in 10 thousands
 
Pretty much all of us high rep users are from beta so it's fine.
ha
back then upvotes were flying left and right
 
Okay, that was during the private beta?
 
5:26 PM
Private and public
I think I made 3k in private beta
In private beta mod privileges are at 2000
 
@GiantCowFilms I'm usually pretty selective on what I click on in the first place
I don't click on anything to do with rigging or animation
 
public 4000, graduated 20
 
only texturing modeling and cycles
@iKlsR Is that for the full ones?
I know we have some at 2k
 
Heh, I usually only go through what I see in the review queue. Sometimes I can answer but cant be bothered.. hence my low rep T_T
I'm very lazy
@TARDISMaker all full sites are 20
 
@iKlsR Yeah
 
5:28 PM
only time 2k is in private beta
 
@iKlsR I usually go days without refreshing the list of questions
@iKlsR okay
 
D: my pic in my description is broken
gaaah
fixed..
 
@GiantCowFilms I never vanish form a challenge!
 
 
5:30 PM
@TARDISMaker I've seen my uncle do that
 
Seems like it would be fun to use
although difficult at the same time
 
not really, we have really long grass here
 
@iKlsR Your a dog!!!!!!
 
its easy to break if frayed tho
@X-27 YES!
 
@X-27 Sorry, we cannot commence as I have some blasted school work to handle ... D:
 
5:32 PM
"On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog" is an adage which began as a cartoon caption by Peter Steiner and published by The New Yorker on July 5, 1993. The cartoon features two dogs: one sitting on a chair in front of a computer, speaking the caption to a second dog sitting on the floor. As of 2011, the panel was the most reproduced cartoon from The New Yorker, and Steiner has earned over US$50,000 from its reprinting. == History == Peter Steiner, a cartoonist and contributor to The New Yorker since 1979, said the cartoon initially did not get a lot of attention, but later took on a life of...
 
Oh great, we have a giant Cow, a wizard, a talking radish, an AI Mech, a blackhole, and a novice who happens to be a master of disguise!!!
and now, we find out that out that our most experienced mod is really a Dog!!!!
 
@TARDISMaker Every time I think "oh i should enter, would be a great opportunity to learn things" but... then i remember how fierce/good the competition is and it bums me out -.-;
 
@Borgleader For me it's that I can never come up with anything
I think I have the ability to compete, if I can just come up with a good idea, and execute it well
This is probably my competition though
 
@TARDISMaker Oh, yeah, Id have that problem too, but I dont get to that stage ;)
 
5:36 PM
I think this is one of the areas I'm best at (futuristic type stuff)
 
And yes, this theme appeals to me more than previous ones ive seen
 
@Borgleader :)

@TARDISMaker AWESOME!!!!
 
@NoviceInDisguise You're going to do it, right?
 
Oh yeah, you bet!
I don't have access to my main Blender machine for another week, so I should have plenty of time to plan.
 
7:45 PM
@X-27 Are you available to fulfill the challenge?
@X-27 :D
 
7:57 PM
I'd ask to join also, but I don't want to mess up the syncing stuff
 
@TARDISMaker Lets play now
without @X-27 since he isn't here yet
 
Okay
 
hopefully it will work!
 
Yeah
 
Join
No syncing errors, yay!
The cow attacks!
try this map, it is quite interesting
@TARDISMaker Nice game
 
8:15 PM
Wait, is it done on your end?
 
What is?
 
the game
 
Now it is
I had to take a few extra ones in the corner
You are starting to put up a fight though
There were a few points where I had to start clicking really hard
 
Good :)
I'm still not getting good enough though
I still don't click fast enough :)
 
Okay, this one is a tough customer
join at will
@TARDISMaker :)
??
Try joining now...
Got troops?
 
8:22 PM
Nope
 
The trick with that map is not to take to many grey planets
you quickly become weak
and are very easy to take
 
Okay
 
Also, the grey planets are very expensive
wait for someone to make them weaker before taking them
ready to play
Got anything left?
 
Nope
 
Nice game there
 
8:28 PM
Yeah
Probably my best so far
 
I would have expanded a little more with that extra planet you have in the back
 
Yeah
 
I got alot of troops via my little camp up there which came in handy later
 
It's a bit hard knowing exactly what I have though
 
esp. cause they are difficult for you to attack
@TARDISMaker Its got the blue outline...
 
8:29 PM
Maybe you should implement a 5 second or so break before playing to figure out where everything is
 
Interesting that you say that
As some one with very very very very good spacial memory I have no issue knowing my property
But I guess others might not
@TARDISMaker Half the challenge is staying on top of you properties.
What I would do in this next game is take over the entire right side of the board
Its far for me to attack and easier for you to defened
just don't be to eager, or I might squash you if you have to few troops
@TARDISMaker Okay, lets go again...!
Do you see how much more space I had to cover for this one?
 
Yeah
Good game!
 
That worked really well
@TARDISMaker You fought hard
Okay, I have to go eat, but here is my next piece of advice:
Be agressive
Did you see how I planted myself on your side?
 
Yeah
 
I kept that hold, and kept pushing in
In order to gain, you have to attack...
 
8:40 PM
Yeah
I tried to attack, but I don't think I was going for the right planets, or defending myself against your attacks properly
 
A good time to be aggresive is when you have a fair number of planet and about the same as your opponent (or more)
@TARDISMaker Its about timing
And seeing an opening
I built up stashes slowly, and then when there are a few week ones I attack hard
BTW the best defence against an attack is a counter attack
they will immediately panic and give you time
cya later
 
Drains the enemy forces, right?
bye
 
@TARDISMaker Destracts them
(I'm back)
Give you time to muster
 
Okay, I'm ready
 
Ready!
That for corners map is good for a defensive player (Its a slow map once things are settled, which you are... this one is not
Got anything left?
I need to add that missing fourth planet on that map
as well as those two missing little planets
 
8:56 PM
There's supposed to be another planet on that?
 
Yes, at the bottom
 
Okay
 
gives blue a little advantage actually...
but in four player mode it is a serious disadvantage to magenta
Finding the correct cords for that planet won't be easy
