Surely there is no need to change the interface to have imported objects default to "floats in air".

Dave - you may be correct. I have some older objects I am using at the moment which may not have this set bang on which may be the cause. Now I have turned collision off on most things it's much less of a problem. I suspect if I went through and turned it off on everything then the problem would pretty much go away.]]> Wed, 05 Dec 2012 17:27:17 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic2310-feedback-thread--v023b-release-nov-2012.aspx Message from CrazyDave ukBerty wrote:

Also, I haven't checked with many imported objects but it should generally be the case that if the object is created with it's origin at the bottom of the object and centred when looked at from above then it shouldn't wobble and should get upright ok (this has been improved recently). Maybe I'm being overly optimistic though :-)]]> Wed, 05 Dec 2012 17:08:49 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic2310-feedback-thread--v023b-release-nov-2012.aspx Message from CrazyDave
I'm just going to add saving/loading of "only walk" and "only run" as a new feature as it's easily done, won't do any harm and I can see why it's annoying to have these properties changed when you load a set.

Another thing....... Could we have some settings in options to set the default status of imported objects. The default is keep upright and can be stood on. This is the exact opposite of what would be most useful for me as...

  • Keep upright just introduces the "wobble about" or "refuse to go upright" issues. It's useful to set the upright position when the object is on the ground, but is best avoided otherwise.
  • As I don't use collision at all, most objects benefit from floating. Also when you first import into a blank space if I don't remember to click on "floats in air" then when you click off the object it plummets to the ground - sometimes it will end up inside another object or beneath the ground and I just immediately delete and re-import.
  • Can be stood on means that characters take off as soon as they get near things which is hard to control. I tend to use can't be stood on/no collision on all objects and just put in invisible ground planes on the rare occasions characters need to stand on something.

I'm sure others would like different settings so how about putting these and your default character movement state in some sort of option panel ?


If these suggestions get in the way of creating a neutral facial state for characters or characters holding things then please immediately ignore.]]> Wed, 05 Dec 2012 15:59:17 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic2310-feedback-thread--v023b-release-nov-2012.aspx Message from CrazyDave ukBerty wrote:
Yes the prepare/direct bug was an old one, but not saving with the set was new.

There's also an issue with remembering a character's "only walk/only run" status between saving/opening a set, which is also new. Will this be sorted with the same fix (it's not as important as the camera speed one).


Hi Berty,

I just checked the code and there's actually nothing there to save the "only walk" and "only run" values for a character with a set. I also checked on an old version (0.19b) and if you save and load a character these values are not retained.

I think this is correct though: to me they are more transient controls rather than values inherent to the character that should be saved... but I'd listen to any opposing opinions :-)

Anyhow I dont think adding more mesh around it is the solution haha so I will just avoid certain depth of field/focus settings and try to work around it. I am keeping quiet about my other issue with the saving files because I dont want to temp fate..

I am also using toon setting in this video I dont notice it when I have toon turned off (actually I use it alot on low settings I just dont think people realize I like the sharper images for certain things eg details on my snow drifts and a few other things )

The christmas set is well you need a pc with a lot of 'umph' it came with a warning I build an entire forest around it and there are a gazzilion spot lights in the thing to create the christmas lights. It usually stops and sits for a long while during the loading of all those lights.

Its probably the ton of lights its not anymore demanding meshwise then the train set in fact I think its less demanding. The train has normal lighting. I dont normally hand out sets with that many lights and effects because I figure I am pushing muvizu very hard with them but for christmas I made an exception ]]> Tue, 27 Nov 2012 18:12:25 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic2310-feedback-thread--v023b-release-nov-2012.aspx Message from urbanlamb Jamie wrote:

It stopped happening it was driving me batty for hours. I am unsure what is going on I tried looking for a second muvizu to shut down but I could find nothing.. Its acting a bit scrambled not sure why I switched to the codec that comes with my webcam to render and my issue stopped. I was having it with the microsoft basic codec so i am not sure... It does not happen always this is what I did that I think causes it..

I render out a shot and then watch it with muvizu running - then went to save after making a few more changes and well it would not let me

if i render if and dont watch the little clip with muvizu happening it seems to be okay.. so I dont know what is happening but after managing to save a new copy of the set that it happened in and deleting the old copy it seemed to stop..

I've had a look at this. I can't get anything to look different between DX9 and DX11. It seems to me that the problem is that the depth test for the DoF blur effect is not "hitting" your trees.

I don't know exactly how these objects have been constructed but perhaps integrating some actual 3D geometry into the tree model rather than just alpha'd textures could fix it.

Perhaps I'm barking up the wrong tree however.

Urbanlamb - That looks weird - I've never seen that but I'll watch out for it.

The show camera window has always had a greater depth of field than the "edit / normal / full" window (not sure what it's called), but you get used to this. You can also get some strange results if you cut the depth of field right down, but I've never seen that.

The set looks amazing by the way.


thanks berty its just in directx 9.0 so i am not worried too much at the moment.. I suppose I should ask to become a tester, but I figure I am doing a lot of reporting anyhow haha. I have to keep an eye on that tester forum the last release was looking for german testers so ignored that one

p.s. glad you like the set i am doing something with lots and lots of lights and am trying to create the equivalent of a lens blur so if the blur is not working my plan will be foiled. Its true women do really like shining lights and things

Marco,

It's not a lack of AA that is my problem - it is the white glow around characters.

Have a look at my post again -

http://www.muvizu.com/forum/topic2179-tech-help.aspx?p=f#post12372


Look very carefully down the left sleeve of the character (the one on our right) - the one with shadows behind it. There is a white outline which only appears when AA is on.

It doesn't look so bad in my example, but it can look really terrible in dark shadowy scenes.

Unfortunately in adding that wonderful new feature the location sliders now have a link option as well which is 'ON' by default. I am already completely fed up with this particular new addition. I rarely if ever adjust all three location sliders and have NEVER needed them linked.

I would be grateful if this option ( linked location sliders ) could be set to UNLINKED by default for the next version. Anyone else find this a right royal pain in the as well?]]> Wed, 21 Nov 2012 13:40:49 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic2310-feedback-thread--v023b-release-nov-2012.aspx Message from Dreeko EEFilmz wrote:

Hi Berty,

The AA issue was fixed for this release, or so we think

At what stage do you spot the lack of AA?

What a great addition! more customisation options for the characters! brilliant!

Two suggestions though,.. Allow us to space the eyes out and distort the head shapes as well!

(I had to follow praise with a request..It's the rules!)


Thanks again!

Just to let you know that tomorrow we will kick start the process of upload the Muvizu clients to mirror websites.

If by any change you are having problems downloading the client soon there will be other options

I was just being a little cheeky, pretending that you had promised us props in this release. Honestly though, we've been through this before. You might consider holding off on saying, in the "best possible way," because then how did Musical Instruments end up in the App? I mean, that would mean they weren't done in the best possible way, right? Yet they're in there.

Forget the "best possible way" way of thinking. That kind of mentality is what causes footballers to freeze or pass to a teammate instead of just shooting.

Also, do my eyes deceive me, or have you fixed the transparency issue where it wouldn't survive a save? Been experimenting with it, and it now seems to be working...although objects in sets that were already transparent have zero texture on them at all now, and when you re-import the transparent texture it does nothing or goes completely opaque. Still, no big deal, I can just re-import the original objects and they look okay now. My trees in Sammamish are going to look even better if this is going to work the way I think it will...]]> Mon, 19 Nov 2012 20:21:04 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic2310-feedback-thread--v023b-release-nov-2012.aspx Message from Jamie dwino wrote:

Hi dwino, nothing happened, they've never held anything other than the guitar, drum sticks and microphone. It's something we're talked about often but never been able to get working in the best possible way.
