[QUOTE=Pyth;36665756]Why are your panties in such a knot over what we talk about? I doubt anyone supports your 'tirade'.[/QUOTE]
Then why are people PMing me they actually mind if this place needed a clean up?
Understand the fine line between Off-topic threads and chat, don't be like the guys in the music section when postal removed their thread, that seriously had to take a few mods to fix their mess.
yeah-ok how about keep it about mapping, gaming, anything related to that. I don't want to see 6 pages of how someone found a bird or what energy drink they bought. Your choice of that or no chat thread at all.

This works. Keeping it about only mapping is just silly, there should be some give.
Do I still get to post about my LEDs Lord Crabbaskit

Because I could link them to my PC for when I play games
[QUOTE=Pyth;36666121]I hope you aren't missing this too. Based on this addition, it seems like we're all post-happy gamers who just want to post for the sake of posting and nothing else. This isn't about that, it's about the tiny community that's been formed within yap + blabber and sharing things with other members in this small community. Unless it isn't, then I have it all wrong.[/QUOTE]
If we have a off-topic thread, that means that every section can have their own off-topic thread - and that's just weird. Each section has it's own little community too.
With what I'm saying, it's still enough consistency with the section that it's permitted and understandable.

It seems like that addition would be the only thing that would allow craptasket to not ban everyone in here for posting things that he would deem to be off topic.
Pyth is right though in this, the mapping community has benefitted from having an off topic chat. We don't have constant mod overlords, and so before the yap n blabber, you could flick through pages of discussion in the pimpage, none of which was about mapping. We know a bit more about one another, as we can post about what drives us as mappers.

Oh, I remember that. How you'd see perhaps 50+ posts in the pimpage thread only to find that a row has taken place.
I kinda wanna try an IRC channel or chatroom again of some sort for this thread. Wouldn't hurt, I think.
We could use my old IRC.
Set up an IRC. Server:

Channel:

Thoughts on this defensive wall prototype?

How long will you be gone?
[QUOTE=GameDev;36669002]How long will you be gone?[/QUOTE]
Up to a year if he doesn't get out of it, which I suggested he should do.
Why would you wanna go to the army when you could be studying and spending time with your girlfriend? Finland is fucking stupid for even having this thing be mandatory, it's not 1950 anymore.
bullshit is there [I]mandatory[/I] military service
[QUOTE=TCB;36669031]bullshit is there [I]mandatory[/I] military service[/QUOTE]
In Germany, Russia, Finland, Israel and tons more there is.
A fucking year? Osku you have to get out of that asap
G'luck in the army. You should try to take some photos so when you come back, you can map some areas or make prefabs.
I also posted this in the programming WAYWO but this relates to mapping as well.
I made a random forest generator that accepts map size, forest density, and multiple models with individual percentages.

This is what those settings created.

I don't think this should be in this thread. Try the map pimpage or your own thread. Not trying to be rude, just trying to save you some time. :wink:
I'm not saying its bad. In fact I think it's awesome. I don't understand what's up with all the dumb ratings.

A necessary feature would be a download link.
Are there settings for random rotation? If you could get it to work on hills and bumpy terrain, this would be a perfect tool.

Not quite ready for release but give me a few minutes, maybe I can package something up. See that other tab? Yeah, its empty. Rotation is currently hardcoded to random.
As for displacement support, we shall see. Maybe it will be feature under 'From File' so trees can be added to an already made displacement.
As an added bonus, there is no reason this has to be just trees. Any model can be used so it could in theory make an empty parking lot filled with trash.

Bear in mind this is not a release. Don't expect this to support a family with its robustness or anything.
[editline]8th July 2012[/editline]
If you really feel like using it and have any questions, just PM me. We don't need to fill this place with that kinda stuff.
Cool, now make it open vmfs and put trees in the areas I mark :v:

I'll figure this out eventually.

I like the switziland system. At the age of 25, you get a pistol and a sealed box of ammo. It used to be a smg, but times have changed...

Probably 270 days.
