Help with modulating colors (GFXStyLER Alert)

Post by dhenton9000 »

Okay, okay. I used the following search terms: Modulate, Materials

I came up with a disscusion that said there is no way at this time to change the way a material color and a texture color are combined. dated 2004.

I did go through the tutorials, but not being as smart as GFX, I'm sure I missed something.

Is that still true? I tried setting ambient color as well, and couldn't seem to get it working. Can one set the way texture colors and material colors blend when EMF_LIGHTING to true? Is it my imagination, or is the material system still under heavy construction and pretty much textures and dynamic lights are the way to go?

@GFX: Du bist sowas von uncool, richtiges Unkraut. Dhenton hat einen guten Charakter im Gegensatz zu dir. Es sollte dir eine Ehre sein, ihm zu helfen. Mannomann, sowas von einseitig begabt, ich fass' es nicht.

@Dhenton9000: Sorry from Germany, but you can't choose your compatriots.

I want a translation.

Google translate gives me this -
You are sowas of uncool, correct weeds. Dhenton has a good character contrary to you. It should be you an honour to help it. Mannomann, sowas of on one side talented, I barrel ' it not.
Whats' Mannomann and sowas and "correct weeds"?

I WANNA HEAR THE DIRT!

okay ill give you one:

Du bist sowas von uncool, richtiges Unkraut. Dhenton hat einen guten Charakter im Gegensatz zu dir. Es sollte dir eine Ehre sein, ihm zu helfen. Mannomann, sowas von einseitig begabt, ich fass' es nicht.

is:

you are so uncool, a real (weed, but ill translate it into something useful) plague. dhenton has a good character in contrast to you. it should be an honor to you to help him. man, so (i dont even understand this part on german, so ill try to interpret it) one-side-skilled, i cant believe it.


ps: i actually think this is really funny because i dont care for such posts anymore, ill have more fun to reply a friendly "los geh inne ecke heulen!" to that german sucker. he is a guest, so what do you expect

ps2: an den prollo da oben: da du mich nich kennst -> schnauze halten. gott hab ich n00bs wie dich satt!! falls du noch irgendetwas zu melden hast, meine icq nummer steht im profil

So sags schon, wie es geht ;-) Ich bin jetzt auch neugerig geworden ;-)

- It means to engl.: so say how to do it (etc.. ;-))

By the way - is there a possibility to download somewhere the Forum-DB?

Because there are allmost no new questions and I would search for the answers at local server.

I mean: niko make surely backups of mysql-DB anyway, and he could give it to somebody, who needs it, and this somebody to somebody else etc.. till I get it and give it somebody ;-) ... (or he just provides it to download at sourceforge)

So if some people use it at local server, there is less last for this server - so this forum would be faster. And using it at local server is faster too. (I guess the reason of forums "slowlity" is the DB)

hmm i could do a RIP of the whole complete forum but the search function would not work then. and providing the mysql DB only would not have any use too.

still it does not solve the problem of putting a very high load on the server which should slow down the already slow irrlicht forum a lot.

if you dont know how to do it and i get the permission to do it i would download the whole forum, put it into an archive and then upload it on my server or send it to somebody.

Why not? I just need the same version of PHPBB as this one, copy it to local server, and execute the mysql scripts (if he makes the backup with creating tables - what he surely does) ... however he (niko) managed to recover the forum only having his DB backups - i guess it shoud be possibly for us also..

By the way I didnt flamed u - could send me a hint as PM? ;-)

PS: how you can download the whole forum? as HTML - there were no use of it and it woul be too big.

Niko won't give up the db backup becouse it contains everyones usernames and passwords. it would not be a good thing. ripping the forum won't do you any good becouse the posts are saved in the db.
If it exists in the real world, it can be created in 3d
