    WIP - Beta Released Stunt Rally tracks converted for RoR

    Regarding road meshes, The Pull Request 3030 introduces the ability to generate arbitrary meshes via AngelScript, so you can write a script that hides auto-generated meshes and creates new custom ones. The bundled script 'road_editor.as' can serve as example how roads are accessed dynamically. I...

    TerrnBatcher: an in-game tool to boost terrain FPS

    I added the option to dump the generated meshes as regular .mesh files. The [dump] button only becomes visible if you check the "Enable dumping..." checkbox.

    WIP - Beta Released Community Map

    I've been workin on a tool to optimize this map (and other maps as well): https://forum.rigsofrods.org/threads/terrnbatcher-an-in-game-tool-to-boost-terrain-fps.4213/

    TerrnBatcher: an in-game tool to boost terrain FPS

    Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you to the TerrnBatcher, a script with the ability to reduce batch count (thus boosting FPS) in just a few clicks. Our maps have large FPS issues due to the fact we use hundreds low-poly meshes with hundreds of individual materials containing simple...

    Porting content - Stunt Rally tracks exporter

    Asset packs drafted: https://github.com/RigsOfRods/rigs-of-rods/pull/3129 I'll probably do the TOBJ 'set_default_scaling' directive tomorrow. I didn't have time to read the latest posts, either way your porting efforts are admirable and it's terrific that you even hang around this project (y)

    Porting content - Stunt Rally tracks exporter

    OK, I'll try to put answers together. Resource packs: at the moment we don't have that, but it wouldn't be a big deal to add - it just never became a priority, I guess somebody suggested it (SimMonsters people perhaps) but I don't have any specific memory. How I'd go about it: Considering how...

    Porting content - Stunt Rally tracks exporter

    This is fantastic - I wondered if RoR could 'borrow' stuff from StuntRally at some point, but this unfolds so fast and so smoothly that I'm stunned. I really need to check forum more, kudos to @thomz92 for ringing me up. I'll try to help with what I know. I completely agree that RoR lacks...

    Axes, orientations and origin points

    3D is hard. XYZ sounds simple enough, but as soon as you ask "which way is left/up/right", you run into ambiguities. I'd like to sum up what we know, in a short format. The reason I'm posting this: In the game, +Y is up, +X is right, +Z is forward. See this image in OGRE docs. This "Y is up"...

    Bump! A really promising debate on vehicle-configurator is hapenning in Discord#development: https://discord.com/channels/136544456244461568/189904947649708032/1165031365327212635 Linking here because things on Discord chats easily get lost.

    Bump! After writing the above post I realized it's silly to leave the `GenericDocument` feature read-only, so I invested a bit of time to make it editable: https://github.com/RigsOfRods/rigs-of-rods/pull/3096.

    I won't have time to work on this until at least next spring, but one thing is sure - if there's ever an in-game editor, it will be a script. All the groundwork is actually already in master, the only missing piece is a daring adventurer who would like to try coding it themselves. This is the...

    List of mods using legacy Cg shaders (risk analysis)

    I didn't realize this but yes, it's because it internally uses managed materials. Those are not a problem however because they ship with the game so I can just rewrite them. I'm only worried about mods bringing their own shaders. Anyway thanks for the note.

    Flaws and what to do about them, 2023 edition. This is 1:1 update to this 2018's post. I originally wrote these as colored inline updates to the original post, but I ran into character limit, so I'm posting separately. Terminology: Actors Fixed for good. C++ now uses exclusively `class Actor`...
