Game Help / Wings in any slot?
« on: July 03, 2017, 09:31:26 am »
I'm assuming all that I need to do to add wings to slot one is change the code, is it okay to have wings in a slot other than 11 or 12?


I got the wings to work in slot one. I don't see anything in the rules about wings in other slots, I just read that presets for wings are slots 11 and 12, are wings supposed to stay in those slots?.

Game Help / Black transparent areas(Fixed)
« on: July 01, 2017, 10:27:46 am »
I am currently in the process of updating Gui, but something's wrong with the transparent parts of the Gui's tail. The same thing happens with eyes if I try to make them completely transparent.

Images
The problem:


This is the tail overlay file, it is set as an overlay for the tail, it is a .png:


This is the tail file, it is not pitch black:
[/color]

This is the code for the tail:
Code: [Select]
material preset_1_tailMat
{
 technique
 {
  pass
  {
   ambient 0.5 0.5 0.5
   cull_hardware none
   cull_software none
   scene_blend alpha_blend
   alpha_rejection greater_equal 128
   texture_unit
   {
    texture presetGuitailT.png
   }
  }
  pass
  {
   specular 1.0 1.0 1.0 128
   emissive 1.0 1.0 1.0
   cull_hardware none
   cull_software none
   scene_blend alpha_blend
   alpha_rejection greater_equal 128
   texture_unit
   {
    texture presetGuiTailStripesT.png
   }
  }
 }
}
Yes those are the names of the files.


EDIT: Every transparent image I save with paint.net just has black where the transparency was. I made the head have black stripes where the animated textures were, simply by editing the image. Is Paint.net's saving causing this?
Paint.net is my main paint program but I'm also good at using GIMP so I'll try painting the rest of the images with GIMP but in the meantime, is there any way I can stop Paint.net from ruining the transparency of the preset files? It looks completely transparent outside of the game but ingame I only see black where the transparency is supposed to be? It started only an hour before this edit and I didn't even look at the settings before and when it started.

I have an image that works with transparency, oddly, it was made right after the transparency problem started.
Here's the image: it appears on Imgur with a white background and looks perfectly transparent ingame, but the non-working images have a black background and don't look transparent ingame.

EDIT AGAIN: It seems that Paint.net is compressing automatically upon saving, does anyone know how to stop Paint.net from automatically compressing the files it saves, and why did the compression problem start so suddenly? Paint.net didn't update in months and still hasn't updated to this day.

Massively long title.
I have updated Gui's preset so many times that it's using up all my preset slots, there's a limited amount of times I can update presets! How do I bypass the limit of preset slots without making a new account(I've read the tutorial on extra slots)?

And, if you're wondering why I used the other slots to update one preset, I do that since users of Preset Sync can see it that way, Preset Sync doesn't show the update if I keep every edit in one slot.

I was done updating my preset until I found this hideous mark on the head(and in the worst spot possible, it can't be hidden with items) after exporting and uploading the preset, that line needs to go but I'm tired of the long process it takes for me to update the preset(The drawing part is fine, it's uploading to both Preset Sync and Mediafire I don't like).


It's okay if you tell me here or in PM that this is a silly help thread to be posting, or just post a simple yes/no to this question.

Miscellaneous Tutorials / Forum code tricks

These are some tricks with code.

To reply to a post, click the word "Quote" located on the top-right corner of the post you want to reply to, then type your reply message right below the quote code.

Example:
Code: [Select]
[quote=(Namehere)](Other person's message here)[/quote](Your reply here)

This brown line spanning the whole post is made using this code
Code: [Select]
[hr]

Click-able words:
Code: [Select]
[url=(Url here)](Words here)[/url]

In this board you'll find lots of tutorials, extra colors and extra fonts!


You can highlight words and then apply effects like font and color, it's very useful for when you want to add color to anything you've already typed, it's also useful for rainbow text

This:
This is an example of colored words in the middle of colored words.

Is this:
Code: [Select]
[color=orange]This is an example of [color=green]colored words[/color] in the middle of colored words.[/color]

Spoilers:
Code: [Select]
[spoiler=(spoiler name)](Text)[/spoiler]That code creates this:
(spoiler name)
(Text)

Example:

Example



That's everything I know now that I didn't learn right away. This was in a PM I wrote, I copied and pasted it from there, I made edits to this tutorial as I have sent the PM after copying it and can't edit PMs.
I excluded images because that's easy to learn when you make an account on Imgur.

Game Help / Why a cursortex.png?

Why is there a cursortex.png and why does it look like lava?
Does it have anything to do with the cursor at all?

Species / Ikao(Open)
« on: June 21, 2017, 04:02:42 pm »
This is a dangerous species that was known to reside in an unknown land, but has migrated to The Grounds in search of willing victims to help their species.

They start off at pup size with the length slider the highest the other sliders will allow, and they don't grow unless they find a host.
Their skin is covered in scales like a snake and they have very short legs, those three features make them look like salamanders.
Their stubby legs aren't much use for moving on land, so they move to an adoption center and stay there until someone wants to look after them.
When someone chooses them they will begin the process of feeding on their new parent by phasing through their stomach and becoming a parasite, feeding off of the internal organs of the host that chose them. They can eat metal and have been known to leave a host unconscious with pain, then they grow slightly and become maximum age, phasing back out of the host's stomach and sticking with their new parent for a day before finding a living or dead host in which they multiply the same way as an illness such as a cold or a flu.

All are scared by loud noises, but only some are scared by water.

They have long arms on their shoulders that they use to keep themselves from moving around too much inside their host, and their head bears a striking resemblance to that of a pachycephalosaurus.


Their color is dark green markings on a 20 - 20 - 20 black pelt and underpelt. Items are a rhino horn and optionally a scorpion tail.

This is an Ikao:

Game Help / How does giving characters work?
« on: June 20, 2017, 08:53:07 am »
I've seen a topic in the characters thread where a character was being given away(https://feral-heart.com/smf/index.php?topic=59651.0) and I have a few questions about that:

How does the recipient get the size right?
Does the one giving away characters lose that char after it is given away?
Does the one receiving the character have to download the preset(If any) as well?

I turned a screenshot into a heightmap and made this!

Should I turn this into a usable map?

Presets & Markings / FlyingGrass' presets.
« on: June 19, 2017, 04:47:10 am »
Here is a preset I completed back in march 2017, I found it on an old harddrive and completely redid it since it was just the lion preset from the first slot with some wounds painted onto it.
Here are some photos of it(You may want to grab a bucket):

Blood warning!
I couldn't get the eye to be transparent although the eyelid could be.
I made it in 2015 and after a long time of me not knowing it was there, I found and remade it in 2017.

This is not the only preset that was made back in 2015.


Update line!

I wondered what would happen if I used Paint.NET's~fractal~functions(I~can't~seem~to~type~this~in~without~something~between~the~words~that~isn't~a~space),
but put both fractals in one image. Then I tried making a preset with the one image.
Screenshots
It's the exact same on both sides, and all parts use the same image.

Should I make the fractal preset public? It was a breeze to create, but many wolves running around with such bright colors would be eye-burning to some.
