S2W Internal Corners

Patron Aceria noted that I was missing internal corners for s2w, and yeah, total oversight, so I fixed that. Everywhere, all at once.

This update gives you the floors and bases to be able to use these in s2w builds, both as single tile and modular, and does it for cut-stone, dungeon stone, towne, cut-stone ruined and dungeon stone ruined, so kinda all of it.

OpenForge Catalog 0.4.1 Released

So this is a broad based update, lots of updates going out.

First off we have data updates. I've added a bit under 500 files this go around, and so now you can find in the catalog:

• Catacombs (really only one set)

• Caves (Sandstone and Aggregate)

• Sewers

• Legacy Sewers

• and Pools

This means I've also added most of the thick wall bases to support all of those.

Next up, big update is it took some n...

Base Customizer

The newest big feature of the OpenForge Catalog is the Base Customizer! This tab lets you design the base you want, letting you choose all the qualities and to explore all the options for what your base can do. Right now it can design bases for:

• Square Tiles

• S2W Walls and Corners

• Curved (and Curved Radial, Curved Inverted)

• Diagonal

• Hex (60 degree)

• Some special tiles, like the Portal and the Infinity Hal...

Minor updates

I've got two updates for the releases 2 days ago.

• User Radzik noticed that the deeplinks were not working across releases.

Well, that was a bug based on me using the id of the object instead of the md5 of the file which had been my original intent. Now, deeplinks will work across releases, though all old deeplinks are permanently broken. There's one exception to this. If a file itself gets updated, deeplinks will break. Making deeplinks go to the newest versi...

Ruined updates

The second big update in data is combined with the tile release this month. Dungeon Stone Ruined and Cut-Stone Ruined got a bunch of updates this month. There's now S2W support for both, Dungeon Stone Block floors got the ruined treatment, and Cut-Stone Ruined got separate walls. All of these are in the OpenForge Catalog, live now!

OpenForge Catalog Data: Towne

This month there were two major data updates and a ton of fixed, but we're going to only talk about the one of the major updates and the fixes. Towne is now live in the OpenForge Catalog! The full set of objects in the OpenForge Dropbox for Towne is now searchable and downloadable from the catalog.

There have been a bunch of other updates:

• To support the new multipart work, you can now get the extra parts for grates, torches and secret doors. There's plenty more to come...

OpenForge Catalog 0.3.0: Blueprints

I've been hard at work this month on an update for the openforge catalog that I'm really excited about. This month I've added blueprints. This was thing I designed the whole site around being able to serve. It's become confusing as to what parts you need to build the tile you want, well, that's where blueprints come in. These allow you to select the type of thing you want to make and get an interface that lets you pick and choose each part needed to make the final object. So in the image...

Half Stairs

Last year I made stair adapters for wall on tile and s system, and then I went and did this whole S2W thing, messing that all up. Well, I've fixed that. These new adapters, being published for both cut-stone and dungeon stone at the same time give you a ton of flexibility. They are the same thickness as walls (half an inch), so you can combine these a bunch of different ways. You can attach separate wall bases to them, and keep them on their own. You can put them with a wall on a 2x1 bas...

Cut Stone in the catalog (and other data changes)

I made a ton of data tweaks and additions this month. First and foremost is cut-stone is now in the catalog! I've also done tons of tag updates to make it a little less confusing.

This will still be refined over time, but now the data is in enough of a good shape to show the basic structure of what I'm intending here.

This is the top level system. Separate wall, S-System, S2W, etc

OpenForge Catalog Alpha 2 is up!

I'm going to be doing two releases today for the catalog. One for the code changes, and the other for data.

The first release was very successful, and I got a lot of good feedback. Rather than add the next big feature set I decided to use this month to refine the experience for the model search, and there's a bunch of new goodies:

First off I have a some changes related to URLs. The system had no way of sharing a model or a set of tag that you found inside the system. Well, no...

OpenForge Catalog Alpha is up!

The alpha of the openforge catalog is up. Here's what you can expect.

• It's not very pretty, this is an alpha release

• All we have so far is the tag filtering to find single stls.

• It's not immediately intuitive yet, and I'll be working on refining it, but on the left, you can expand tag categories, and then select tags to filter by. Say like build|s-system or build|separate wall, or texture|dungeon_stone.

• Each tag you select refines the...

Alpha Catalog coming this weekend

Hey all, just wanted to let you know, the alpha version of the catalog is going to release over the weekend. It should have released today, but I got roped into a last minute business trip that prevented me from doing the release today.

The code works and is verified. First release will be just a tool for finding parts, and the parts in the system thus far are just dungeon stone. That being said, I'm excited about what's coming out, as I think it's a really great way to explore parts...

Towne Long Plank Floors

Since I'm doing some work in the towne tiles, I figured heard some people discussing that they prefer long planked tiles, where the wood runs 2 inches. It's still plenty easy to figure out where the squares are with this design (something I learned with city streets).

There is one impact, which is any odd inch tiles really don't work with this, so there's no 1x1, 2x1, 3x1, 3x3 or 4x1 in this set.

Unsupported? and Grab Bag

Another thing I've heard a few times and finally did something about. A lot of people really don't like the supports that come with the default openlock ports. Well, here you go. All the basic square floors that have been recently updated now have a +unsupported option that I um, support. Dungeon Stone Block, Dungeon Stone Eroded, Cut-Stone, Towne and Towne Long Planks have all been updated. Along with most of the bases for floors.

There's still tons of files that need to be added,...

Voting problems

Voting should be fixed, try the link again.

Google dramatically changed the interface in a recent release and I messed it up. Ping me if it's still not working.

Voting

I skipped a few months on voting because the software project for the catalog is a huge lift, so we won't be seeing a new set that we're working on for a while.

I'm taking this time to fill in lots of little problems and address things that make managing openforge harder.

One thing that I've done, and some of you have noticed, is I've pivoted over entirely to S2W as how we do wall on tile moving forward. There are still a number of older wall on tile objects out there, and some w...

Towne: Facelift and S2W for Corners

Corners get a facelift in this release. Before, we had support only for the separate wall approach to s2w. Now Towne can do wall on tile s2w. Also, I added support for low walls as well as the broken stucco walls.

Towne: Facelift for Primary Walls & S2W

Now that I’ve converted Cut-Stone and Dungeon Stone to s2w conversion for wall on tile, it's time to start on Towne. This huge set of updates includes every single one of the towne basic walls and low walls. I added D (3"), and BA (1.5", along with what's used for corners) got tons of updates. I added Dragonlock support across the board. In total, I gave a couple hundred wall parts a facelift or new options. Note: I have not yet updated the curved walls pictured here.
