Hello Stuffed_bunny
First of all thanks for your work. Single person developing and actively maintaining such a project… 59 thread support pages… that deservers a huge respect.
Also thanks for pointing to Rebol. I read your 800+ line script (Bodyslide_tools.r) and found Rebol to be very interesting language. I am perl/python scriptwriter focused on middleware and software integration, so rebol as compact and flexible tool will be very useful for me. BTW I found it to be true multiplatform (as example – your script runs identically in Windows, OSX and Linux) and Linux is my main development platform
So big thanks again
I'd like to make a first small contribution to your project: it's tiny perl script that generates slider sets automatically.
It works the following way:
0. Must be run after convert-bsd/batch
1. Reads config files with generic slidersets config and specific armor sliderset conf
2. Scans convert-bsd output directory for created bsd files (as convert-bsd does not create empty bsd, there is no need to list those in sliderset).
3. Creates slider set xml file (one per armor suite).
Sample config files, perl source and compiled perl executive are attached.
Hope it will save several minutes while converting armors.
If you will find this script useful and feel the need for any bugfix/new features: I am at your disposal
And finally there are couple questions I'd like to ask:
I started converting Alan's armor pack to sliders. For now I have more or less successfully converted gloria, sexyjersey and frostbite armors.
Currently they have a lot of clipping and needs to be tuned, but main conversion process works
BTW BBP support that was made by Alan, is still there after slider conversion
So here goes questions:
1. Please advise if Bodyslide_tools_v0.2.8.zip and _ConversionMesh_v0.2.zip, available here are the latest version?
Seems they are not, because convert-bsd often complains it can't find base/source bsd for slider
2. Could you please upload latest available versions of those project parts? If they are not desired to be publicly available, could you please send them me those privately?
I'm ready to sign NDA with blood and send you hard copy
