Me thinks that the arms are quite a bit too long for an egoboo thing, but otherwise it looks nice.

Nah, in Egoboo, I imagine the arms all cartoony-stretchy, and they're longer than the legs, so...

Due to the new page I'll place the latest logo again

What do you think of it?

SVN update
- Better doxygen integration
- Started to split general objects (objects, menu.txt, passages, ...) into the core/ subdirectory
- Moved some functionality from the core classes to the c_modbaker class

Things I didn't put into SVN yet:
- I started a new wall tool (used cartman as a reference. Thanks bgbirdsey for the hint!)

And here is my submission.

I experimented a little with shading and outlines. The chef came out dopey looking, which I like.

This one is pretty cool.
I esp. like the oven and the bugs

The chef looks nice, too. But I like the style of aleco614's chef ( / my improved version) a bit more.
But I really like the coloring of your image (looks better than the shading I did).

Now it's getting harder which picture to chose. But let the submissions come!

This is Penguinflyer2222's submission. You probably haven't seen it yet.

No, I haven't seen that one yet.

I would put in more detail (legs to the bugs, showing the chef from behind is not a very good idea if you want to add details IMHO).

Btw. I started to rewrite the input system ModBaker uses.
Maybe I can fix some annoying logical failures of mine that way

And maybe it will even work on windows without crashing when reading the .mpd file

It still crashes in "getting the basic fan data..." section with the following exit code: -1073740777 (0xc0000417).

It happens when reading a vector:

Code: Select all

v = 0x023af7f0
     [0] = 1.3371670e-037
     [1] = 1.3676521e-037
     [2] = 0.00000000
x = 1.3371670e-037
y = 1.3676521e-037
z = 0.00000000

looks like x and y are not initialized properly.
I saw that this code area ("getting the basic fan data...") is quite big. I think I'll split that section up into smaller bits.

I've added that to my todo list for the next SVN update (just discovered the \todo tag in doxygen

).

@My picture: I realized after uploading that I forgot to add the grub bug's legs.

Development update (nothing of that is in the SVN yet):
- Redesigned the complete GUI and input system
- Changed the memory handling when loading a mesh (hopefully this fixes the SegFault on Windows)
- Several smaller changes in mesh.h / mesh.cpp
- Moved mesh.h / mesh.cpp to the "core" directory
- Removed some more global variables

Things I'm currently working on:
- Redesign the selection / the edit functions (create a c_mesh_editor class for this)
- Add the wall / floor tool to this class
- Fix a segmentation fault when trying to open the texture, object, ... window
- Create a window for editing the config

Cool

Let's hope it works on windows. I was thinking once this is finished we include ModBaker with the official Egoboo releases?

You get my vote!

After the floor / wall tools are working properly, it would be great to include ModBaker in the next dev bundle.

ModBaker would then have the following milestones:

ModBaker 0.7 (included in the next(?) dev bundle):
- current features
- wall / floor tool
- a config dialogue
- correct tile3.bmp handling

ModBaker 0.8:
- finishing the "new mesh" function
- adding / editing / deleting spawns
- minimap handling
- passage handling
- autosave function

ModBaker 0.9:
- lighting

ModBaker 1.0:
- Module Manager integration
- Bugfixes
- Misc stuff

What happens when ModBaker reaches version 0.8?
When all features for ModBaker 0.8 are done, I'll have a break from adding new big features to ModBaker.
I'm going to create an independent side-quest for Egoboo (with around 5 completely new modules).

All I'll reveal for now that it takes place in a dream world

(the quest could get unlocked if you bump a sleeping guy in Zippy town).
Currently I'm doing first concept work for the new modules, creating a storyline, designing the locations, ...
I'll post some details in a new thread when there is something to show
