Forum Suggestions & Ideas / A way to opt-out of pop-up ads and/or ads?
« on: February 26, 2017, 02:26:21 am »
I think it'd be nice if there was a way for us to opt-out of the pop-up ads if we have at least white-listed FeralHeart for our ad-blockers.

I also think it'd be nice if there was a way for us to pay a continuous fee and opt-out of ads altogether as long as we pay. Some kind of membership thing? That might be nice. Maybe throw in something else to go with it later but for now just an opt-out would be nice.

I'm ok with the ads and I understand that they help the game survive... but some of these pop-up ads do concern me, specifically the ones that try preventing you from closing their tab (and for me, it's been every single one.). It's not about them being scams or viruses, it's about them being annoying/stubborn and/or just slowing down page loading time.

I'm not talking about removing them, they're fine, just giving us another option. Thanks for reading this. <3

Finished Maps / Silverside Island: Winter
« on: February 12, 2017, 09:50:50 pm »
Silverside Island
By VortexAlive

A very large (100k width), very cold (snow), very fantasy themed (unrealistically glowing and blue-ish forest and grass... and objects. xD) island map. I'm just changing the colors of the default textures and using default meshes, unless I feel like making something fancy.

What is made by me?
Height-map, Mask, Placement of all objects, Recolored default textures, Bridge mesh, Octagon platform mesh, Rook mesh, Wall mesh, Hovel mesh, Iceburg mesh.

Have fun exploring! :D

Hello there, everyone!

I have removed this mod. Not because of few people using it or liking it, but because I did not have permission to do what I did. No, I wasn't told to remove it, nor did the original author ever say anything about it (I would have been more than happy to give them everything I had if they did.)... but it has been a lingering thought ever since I uploaded the mod. I am surprised that no one asked me about it until today and I am thankful that you all did not simply bash and hate me for it.

For those of you who still have this mod, I ask that you please do not re-upload it anywhere. Thank you. <3

Don't worry though, from all of the feedback about this and with all the time I was able to spend thinking about it, I've come up with a much more subtle and, in my opinion, much better idea.

I am sorry for any inconvenience that was cause by all of this.

This problem is related to making /Items/ not objects.

I can make multi-textured objects just fine but I can't seem to make a multi-textured item!

A quick example of what I have so far for reference:
[Couch] #WIP
mesh=vtxSimpleCouch.mesh
material=vtx1xGrayMat
bone=Main
offset_f=0 -5 8
rotation_f=85 -180 0
offset_c=0 -5 8
rotation_c=85 -180 0

This Couch item was made with two materials/textures in Blender and they both show up in object maker but when I make it an item it just covers the entire object with one texture, I know why but I don't know what to change to make it display 2 textures instead of one.
In the material section, what would I do to specify the second texture like I would when making it in object maker? Or do I need to do something in the .material file for it to make it notice two mats instead of one, how would I do that?

Edit: I've noticed that the items that come with the Legendary Items Pack have multiple textures. However, many of them don't even specify a material in items.cfg but have .material files?... this is really confusing because their textures work just fine until you rename a couple of files relating to the specific item but normally if no material is specified it would simply use the BaseWhite texture and when I re-organized the items.cfg, all of the multi-textured items stopped displaying their textures.

The many things I've tried so far that don't work:

material=name1 name2

materials=name1 name2

material=name1
material=name2

material1=name1
material2=name2

material 1=name1
material 2=name2

material(s)=CouchMats #I did this is the .material file: material CouchMats/tex1 & material CouchMats/tex2

Just a simple uncomplicated tutorial with a few links to help you out. ^.^

---Game Install Methods For FeralHeart v1.16 (They do not contain viruses)---
The Official Download Page

---After Updating/Installing FeralHeart---
Pay attention for difference of "Front" and "Map" Server.

If it says FRONT server:
You need to log in to this page and keep it opened the entire time, it also helps to get a tab refresher for your browser and set the log in page to refresh every 55 mins or less to avoid being lagged out.
++Also make sure you are typing in the correct user information. If it is typed wrong it will simply 'refresh' but that is its way of saying "Your username or password was wrong, please try again." and has nothing to do with your internet, browser or computer.

If it says MAP server:
You will need to go Here, log in and then click on "Reset Home" on all your characters and then "Go Home" for all of them in that order!
You should now be able to play the game. ^.^

Meshes / Vortex's Items + Objects (3m/18d/2019y)
« on: December 21, 2016, 07:17:24 pm »
Hey everyone! I made some objects!

Simple+OldStuff

This screenshot shows a wall I made in FeralHeart.

The texture is just a recolored FeralHeart texture, it shows up the way it does because of how I unwrapped the UV of the objects in Blender. =P

Here is a view of a tiny fort surrounded by a few hovels and towers:

I used 1x1 and 2x2 textures to make it look like that. ^^ Though I think I'd much prefer the larger textures.

A simple sword and shield I made:


An simple orb I made and then retextured a bunch:


A chair, a table, a book and a couple of rings I made:


Here are two versions of the same bridge:


Here's that wearable couch I kept saying I was going to make:
When Laying


When Standing

 
Feel free to use these textures and meshes to make new content for FH!

Decided to show a bunch of screenshots all at once so here they are! ^.^

To get a better view, right-click the image and select 'view image'. It should open a full-size version of the image that you can zoom in on. :D



This was a lot of fun! :D
