Bugs prior to release 2.4 / terrain material parameter broken ?

« on: December 14, 2011, 07:34:40 pm »

This is what happens to the bunker map when I use the terrain material parameter - black seams between the floors are suddenly visible 

Probably this happens because all of those textures also have normalmaps, but maybe it could be fixed somehow as "terrain" and "dirtmap" (fully working) could be important to break up the monotony of tiling textures on various maps a bit...

Design / New, minimalistic battlescape HUD with transparency

« on: November 25, 2011, 11:48:15 am »

I have implemented a derivate of the Alternative HUD called Minimal HUD. You can activate the new HUD in the gameplay options in latest master.
It features transparency and some other fine enhancements.
It is fully working, but will nevertheless get improved in the near future as I have a few ideas already...

Please test it and comment here.

Mapping / Copying windows not possible in UFORadiant ?

« on: May 31, 2011, 01:35:20 pm »

During mapping work I realized that copied windows behave quite strange...

You change the levelflag of one window - all of the copied windows change the levelflag... 
You destroy one window via shot or explosion in-game - all of the copied windows break... 

Something's wrong here

Bugs prior to release 2.4 / Geoscape models should get smaller when zooming out

« on: February 18, 2011, 11:15:10 am »

Currently the geoscape models (Ufos, Base, etc.) get bigger when you zoom out & smaller when you zoom in.
IMHO this should be the other way 'round, the models should get bigger when you zoom in & smaller when you zoom out, also the zoom factor should be a little bit bigger (more change of the scale)...

Bugs prior to release 2.4 / [FIXED] Disabling the battlescape HUD (F11) problems

« on: February 13, 2011, 01:48:43 pm »

1.) It seems that disabling the battlescape HUD is just possible after a change of the height level (Cursor up or down), otherwise hitting the F11 key shows no effect @ all.

2.) When pressing ESC afterwards to get the HUD back, the battlescape is now black & disappeared, but you can bring it back by hitting ESC twice (Back-To-Menu/Back-To-Game)

3.) In high resolutions (1920x1200 for example) not the full screen is used when you hide the HUD.
