Been playing through The Birth when I caught this

Yeah, I guess either there's no maphack for that one or voxels have problems with this kind of stuff in general. Need to check what's the problem here.

[ReaperMan]

Im feeling like thats a voxel issue... not a maphack one. They like to show though walls sometimes.

[Phredreeke]

Wouldn't the fix be adding notmd for that sprite in the maphack?

There was also a stop sign in Going Postal that appears backwards Never mind, I'm an idiot

[Striker]

This definitely screams maphack issue. Either they're not being loaded, or there's something wrong with the maphack. The notmd keyword will disable voxels just as it does with models, so if it's missing in the maphack, it should be put in. Also, voxels shouldn't render if they're one-sided wall-aligned and you're behind them. If the switch got rotated somehow, or the one-sided bit isn't on, that could also be part of the problem.

[NightFright]

I have checked the E4L11 maphack and there was an issue indeed. Sprite #683 had a notmd line, but it was commented out for unknown reasons. I fixed it in the Github repository, please download and check if the voxel switch is hidden now.

[NightFright]

I tried by myself and it's fixed now with the reactivated notmd line. Please keep reporting things like these since we can't play through all the episodes again and again by ourselves in the tester team to see if all the hacks are working properly.

This thread has gone cold lately. Lets warm it up a little.

Both frames/models of geisha are 70% done.

[Stripper]

Judging by how perky her pixels are, seems like the temperature is rather chilly actually

Vhs camera and armchair+its destroyed state.

Slimer egg is also finished.

Borion's 10 new voxels (everything he has made since his return until the present day) have been uploaded over at Github.

Thanks for such quick update, Nightfright!

One small thing folks, please think of geisha as 'beta version'. There are some minor improvements left, expect them to happen in next couple of days.
_Rest is finished and tested_

Expect more voxel stuff in near future

The new sprites face the same direction as the models in the HRP so they should work with the existing maphacks right?

I hope so! I checked those models on couple of vanilla maps and found no issues.

Besides USA flag, but thats unposted yet...

In-game shot of camera and chair. Sorry for no crop:

[Danukem]

That chair looks so much like the sprite, I can barely tell it's a voxel. The legs give it a way, but it's super accurate.

Thanks Dan, appreciated!

Next to fire extinguisher & yellow gas container ('seenine'), this is for me one of most iconic sprites in DN3D. I cant imagine DN3D without those chairs here & there.

Do you also have your favourite sprites/objects, guys?

[Ñuño Martínez]

If I remember correctly, both C9 and fire extinguisher were voxeled yet, aren't they? Maybe I'm thinking in the MD3 models though.

Nice work by the way.

[NightFright]

The three new voxels have been integrated into Github. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to correct the maphacks for E4L5 (sprite 83, should face 180°, i.e. opposite way) and E4L5 (sprite 335, should be rotated 90° clockwise) since EDuke32 wouldn't use them ingame.

You might want to check the MD4 of your E4L5.map file. Might not match.

[NightFright]

How many versions are out there of that map? I have Atomic and World Tour and the changes work for neither of them, and yes, I adjusted spritenums for WT properly. And it's not only like this in E4L5, it's E4L8, too.

Anyway, I have reminded Borion to use HRP model orientations so we don't need to start making two different sets of maphacks. Even if some md3 orientations may be incorrect.

[Striker]

The only other thing I can think of is there possibly could be a syntax error in the maphack causing it to break after a certain line.

I think it would be much wiser to design the voxels in accordance with the original game as opposed to designing them around mistakes made in the HRP.

[NightFright]

Well, in that case someone has to do all the maphacks adjustments. It was easy when it was just about pickups.

[Radar]

Did you need any help? Which specific voxels need to be adjusted?

[Striker]

Was that line meant to be commented out? The // prevents it from being used.

(This is in the E4L5 maphacks for Atomic and WT)

[Striker]

BTW, the voxel for 556 should be applied to 557 as well. 557 is just the backside of the same chair.
