truespace indigo update About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011. They are retained here for archive purposes only. truespace indigo update // The Garage 1  2  |   Order by default Post by clintonman // Apr 4, 2009, 3:26pm clintonman Total Posts: 304 Here is likely the last update for this weekend. Image shows new mesh light. Changes: use the truespace sky light to determine the indigo skylight direction fixed face normals - this may fix vertex normals, haven't tested yet support one area light as an indigo rectangle light support mesh lights mesh lights must have scene instanced D3D color material use the BlankDXMaterial or one of the color(non-texture) indigo materials place the I_meshlight node inside the object to convert it to a meshlight attached is everything to this point in time Clinton Edit: The included scene file contains the older indigo script. Replace it with the draft3 script version Post by Jack Edwards // Apr 4, 2009, 4:58pm Jack Edwards Total Posts: 4062 Awesome that you're doing this Clintonman. :banana: I wonder if we should sticky this thread to make it easier to find?

The normals problem is fixed thanks to Jack and Tomas. Smooth normals, Facet normals and Autofacet normals are written out properly. It looks like the indigo normal smooth flag has to be one/checked before the render engine will see it. It still seems less than perfect, but testing will tell. Image shows identical cylinders one with smooth and one with facet normals. I still see one hard edged face on the smooth one. Attached is the indigo script object.
