PageEditor and Wavesets

Postby andylegate » Thu Jan 22, 2009 7:46 am

Just recently with this latest version I was trying to edit my waveset data.

If I try saving the prp, or even if I save it as a prc and convert it with prcc, several of the variables get reset to 0!

Specifically

Env Refresh
Env Radius (and this makes the waveset go to crap if it's set to 0)

Edge Opacity
Edge Radius

WaterStateParams:
RippleScale
WaterHeight
Wispiness
Period
FingerLength

All those get reset to 0 if you try to save the prp,or if you try to save it as a prc and then convert. This pretty much trashes the waveset for the Age.
I was trying to see if it would be faster to adjust the variables and see the results by using the PageEditor, rather than have to export from Blender each and every time.

Ah, it would seem that the PRC parser was trying to read those fields from the wrong tag... It should be fixed now. Thanks

Quick response on that Zrax, thanks!

I'm thinking that, at least more advanced age writers anyway, can use the pageeditor to do some of the quick editing that I'm talking about, and not just for the wavesets. Would save a LOT of time, especially for large Ages, where you just want to edit some of the colors or varibles to see what's better and what is not.

I'll give this a try this afternoon. Thanks again!
