He was referring to the 3D models/archives/etc. sections, whichever is appropriate to your request, here on Xentax. The Noesis thread isn't for requests, short of perhaps stuff related to core Noesis functionality, but even then whether I entertain those requests is up to my whim. This does bring up...

Kinda depends on the platform. For 360/PS3/PC, DXT will be common, and the common sizes are as howfie just said. Sometimes you'll also see custom normal map formats like BC4/BC5, which correspond to noesis.FOURCC_ATI1 and noesis.FOURCC_ATI2. There is also a custom variant on DXT1 that I came across ...

Then, what do you see in place of this?

The string you provide in rpgSetLightmap has to match the material's name string. Then the material's diffuse name string has to match the texture's name string...unless you're not providing textures. In which case I guess that would explain all of this. Noesis doesn't auto-load external lightmap te...

1: I just read an article on bitmaps, pixel formats, and indexed palettes and feel enlightened, but how do I actually work with palettes in noesis? I see functions related to getting and applying palettes, but not sure how to use them in practice. I imagine one would have to parse a palette file to...

Well, I know that custom blend modes on lightmap materials are definitely working, I tested it with the Quake 2 script. So I'd imagine it's something else, like you didn't set the LMUV's, which you need to do for it to render that LM pass, even if they're the same as the regular UV's. If anything th...

I use a few advertisers - Intergi, who have a minimum user requirement, and CPMstar who do an alright job - better than Google did when I used them. If you need to reduce costs, I have my own dedicated hosting server which I could offer to you at a heavily reduced rate. While I've had a falling out...

Demonsangel: Are you actually attaching the bones to a model? If you are, then the only thing that comes to mind is maybe you're dealing with bad rotations/matrices or everything is identity so that it looks the same either way. Edit: Also forgot to mention, I just put a build up with a fix for your...

The timing certainly was funny. Kind of like being accused of killing your wife right after a fight with the one-armed man.

Also, I've used CafePress for custom shirt designs before. I was happy with the quality. Don't know how they compare to other services otherwise though.

That's actually a pretty good idea. I'd love a XeNTaX shirt. And a XeNTaX mousepad. And beer mugs.

You are really deluding yourself if you think you're helping people by blatantly violating copyright law. Tools like Noesis exist so that those people can legally get at those resources. That BioWare animator didn't get his skills by stealing content on your site, and he could've done the same thing...

That's why Noesis exists. So people can learn from content they own. Not so you can illegally distribute that content all over the internet. £1000? Shared hosting would handle your site just fine at <£200/year, unless you're getting tens of thousands of downloads per month. I pay $150 USD a year and...

And I wonder where these people are getting their knowledge of copyright law. The homeless? Back when I made AVALANCHE, I consulted with a friend of a friend (who happened to be a contract lawyer) to at least make sure I had my bases covered in avoiding personal financial liability through my chosen...

Copyright laws are quite rigid where distribution of copyrighted content is concerned. They wouldn't do much fucking good otherwise, would they? Directly distributing ripped copyrighted content is not fair use and it is not parody. Implying otherwise doesn't help your cause. It just narrows us down ...
