Depyraken will need a beautiful 3D fishing rod for his fisherman occupation!

Q : I have a question: I am just starting to learn Blender on the Mac. Are the tools available to import to Ryzom from Blender on mac ready yet? and Where to get them?
A: Kaetemi could answer you better than me, but I know that Blender Exporter is expected to run on all 3 platforms. Till the end of the tests, it can be compiled here: https://bitbucket.org/ryzom/ryzomcore/commits/all. And it can also be downloaded with ryzom_tools_static_*.zip on the http://ryzom.kervala.net/clients/ page. By the way, Kaetemi needs as many 3D graphic creations as possible done, among others but not only, using Blender to test his new tool and improve / fix it if needed.
Kervala: yes OS X tools should work: http://ryzom.kervala.net/clients/ryzom_tools_static_osx_2.9.0.706 3.zip.

Gaueko: Does someone something to ask or add about this?
Ptitbill: Yes, I've got lots of items requests for them. On hold... for Deed, Zendae and Bastien projects.
Gaueko: Have you contacted with Aileya about this?
Ptitbill: Yes of course.
Gaueko: I suggest you to talk with her again, but she is busy with Steam too…

Gaueko : Tamerea et moi même nopus occupons de l'equipe graphique et nous aidons Aileya a faire que cette equipe fonctionne d'une meilleur façon, plus fluide. Nous avons du travail à faire actuellement. Mais nous serons heureux si vous aviez d'autre idé, envoyer les lui directement a partir de maintenant. De sorte qu'elle puis organiser et s'en occuper.

Il te faut utiliser mesh_export et si tu le lances sans paramètre, tu obtiendras :

Usage: mesh_export [-h][-v][-d<destination>] <input...>

Where options are:
  -h or --help : Display this help
  -v or --version : Display version of this program
  -d <destination>, -d<destination>, --dst <destination> or --dst=<destination> : Destination directory path
  --dependlog <log> or --dependlog=<log> : Dependencies log path
  --errorlog <log> or --errorlog=<log> : Errors log path
  input : Filename of 3D model to convert

Bonne chance :)

As the other groups, this one was waiting for restart after the release of Ryzom on Steam. Since the missions and rites will restart, infographics will restart also. And as it will be done for the Level Design, the Infographics Group will also offer you to discover a trailer of its creations for the missions and rites.

Q: I'd like to have news about the progression of the new graphic tools for the NeL.
A: I have asked Graphic Team Manager and there are no news by now. But maybe Kaetemi could give us a better answer.

-------------------

Kaetemi: The time I had initially planned to do the material editing tool, and plans for the next tools, was used to do the fixes to the weather system and other bug fixes that needed to be done for the Steam release, as it was higher priority. I've been busy on some other projects for a while. I will plan this in again around the end of this month if that's okay. I won't charge anything for the material and mesh export properties editor, because it's way too late, I know.

Hi, I have a question, (or 3, lol).
Lately, i have noticed a proliferation of 3D modeling programs due to the explosion of the 3D printing industry. I have even noticed programs that can be used on an IPad.

I know we have talked about how Ryzom has used 3DsMax to make the Graphics in the game so it can export to NeL, but 3DsMax is expensive, so an effort was made to make export plugins for Blender which is free.

Is there, or has there been any examination of the new 3D modeling programs out there to see if another program would be better or easier to use, so the players can contribute? Would they have to have 'plug-ins' made also? Is NeL propriatory? Is Blender the best program to use for this? Is there better programs that are easier to use that work also even if they are not free and have to be paid for?
I think overall, I am looking for 'Ease of use' in a program.


~Thanks

From what i know, Blender is the most advanced free 3D modelling tool, being as good as some other professional and paying tools. So i think Blender is a good choice.

NeL is opensource together with ryzom's code :D

- Upgrade to V3 of the clients will allow to patch very easily all clients at the same time. So the next graphical creation will not wait so many before being implemented in game, adding things will be done by frequent patches, and will be visible by all.
- Graphical creations already done by Ryzom Forge will be implemented in the V3 upgrade : only a few days to wait since Linux and Mac have them also, then we will put them on Atys (or we let them available in appartments).
- Ryzom Forge graphical creations : https://bitbucket.org/ryzomforge/assets/src

Anlor Winn scenery
The Anlor Winn scenery (ground, changed trees and animals) is the work of Remigra (Graphics Group). Only a small part of it was used last year because it was too big for a patchlet. Thanks to the V3, everything could be patched this year.

1 Creation of a Fyros defense tower (Aileya)
For the above mentioned event about the Fyros event, The Empire Shield, the graphics team is by now creating the necessary defense tower. It is almost finished already in its shape but needs some more work in texturing. Presuming next week we may can see it already ingame.
Of course it was also planned that players can go to the top of the defense tower, but unfortunately (at least for now) the technical (engine) restrictions are tying our devs hands, so I unfortunately cannot promise we ever could go on top but i am crossing my fingers ! How ever even if not, I hope you will enjoy it anyway!

2 Creation of a plant wall around Yrkanis (Aileya)
Next project after this one will be the creation of a vegetal wall around Yrkanis.

By the way both of these projects can also be found in the roadmap (the first ones you can see there - we are still working on the team itself): http://app.ryzom.com/app_devroadmap/index.php?from_index=1

3 Recruitment
So thats being said. We are always recruiting new graphics volunteers. if you may be interested in joining us and you are having a good hand on new creations (2D and/or 3D), please feel free to send a mail to aileya@ryzom.com.
