Wow, brilliant work on this one Tom.

I had hoped someone like you might pickup and appreciate the example; but this is just incredible; you've created something entirely new and very advanced : D

At 800-Lines all related to physics; this may be MMF's most advanced vanilla written custom movement engine.

Thanks, Fanoftherpg

Ive had some success with command line utility's...

A quick search brings-up Please login to see this link.

A Transport Triggered - Minimal instruction Set Computing Architecture was selected for my Virtual Machine to simplify implementation.

All you need to take away from that is that i made a 'virtual machine', which is simply a layer of abstraction above MMF2's event logic.

Reasons you might use a virtual machine include; changing level and object behavior without modifying events inside MMF2,
It's possible to handle game behavior in this way entirely inside a fast-loop which only terminates intermittently in-order to allow MMF2,
to redraw the frame and re-sample the controls.

This is how MMF works, in-order to perform collision detection without an N*N lookup a static collision map must be build at the end of each framedraw.

There are of-coarse numerous work-arounds; the most graceful of which simply involves collision detection before positioning.

As for forcing frame-redraws... i have done this once in the past once; as part of a MISC VM implemented in MMF which had an instruction 'Yield'.

The logic and timing was handled virtually and within an unbounded fast-loop; Yield simply ended the index-insensitive loop; to be restarted on the next frame.

MMF2 does-not use multi-threading.

However a program written in MMF2 could still take advantage of multiple cores

Please login to see this link. is the only example I've seen released to-do so however.

A more meaningful use of multicore processing in MMF2 was in an automatic-redstone-circuit-synthesis program for the gaming craze minecraft which implements exhaustive-combinatorial search over configurations of a 3D digital CA.

As the the Blender format question. it probably did exist ( since it's easy to write importers and exporters for )

But it would not be incorporated by Blender( its a native format; which contains lots of MilkShape specific stuff )

Your in luck; i wrote the wiki for Md2.

Basically it's a binary format for storing 3D mesh's used by id Software.

Trivia:
The format does not store vertex data-types in an arbitrary way; but instead higher precision is given to models which have all points a similar distance from the origin ( which is usually the case for characters; but often not the case for scenery )

It's not.

But that doesn't mean your out of options;

you may-not be aware; MS3D( MilkShape 3D ) is the native file-type used by MilkShape a low-poly 3D-modeling program capable of importing a wide range of file formats

A quick look at Please login to see this link. reveals a number of formats which are directly importable into milkshape.

If you download milkshape; load the exported models and then save them as .MD3D's
You can use your blender 3D data-sets in multimedia fusion 2 . Today.

Good luck

Looks georgeous; these graphics should merge seamlessly as alpha channeled actives...

I especially like the detail layers added to the clothing.

On criticism

A few intersecting polys
And texture seems

However, No more then would be seen in successful games such as halo-1.

Thanks alot p6r; can't wait to see more.

Also; have you thought at all about importing these as 3D-data sets, into MMF2?

If you are not sure how; i would definitely like to help

The font width is 48, but global value says 40

Good luck

On closer inspection;

Editing this particular INI is not the answer
This is for categorizing extensions.

To disable an extension you might;

Copy you extensions folder in the MMF2 directory.

Delete extensions from the original and test untill your hearts content.

If something goes wrong; you have the folder copied.

Hehe Marv, another one nearly losing there ext.ini

Thats Right

Algul you definably deserve colorful name imho

Thats for Good advise btw

There in an .INI file in your extension folder which makes reference to felines.

Specific extension loading can be toggled by changing this file.

..

"Ogg"
"OpenGL"
"Zip object"
"Kcqtw3.mfx" ???

Are all quite slow-to-load extensions

Try changing the 'Always' or every '00-00-01' event to something like ' when global value a = 0 '

Then

+Mouse pointer and Keyboard object : mouse clicked single-left button
-Set global value a to 1
-Show counter

If its counting too slowly now; try doubling the decrement.

If you are stuck, upload your mfa over in the file-archive.

For you. Please login to see this link.

Written for Crazy_Ivan in response to (Please login to see this link.)

This example uses the 'Calculate Text Rect object' to display a re-sizable string object.

*Word or letter filtered Line-Wrapping
*Adjustable text sizes and fonts

( try widening the text-box by dragging it's border )

Hello Dines,

I also remember the object.

However it is not in my new mmf2's extension list

With a slight hit to performance...

The behavior could be simulated without any extensions, perhaps even in a modular form ( perhaps a widget or some-such )

Try

+List on click
+List Current line number > -1
-Rich edit load ASCII text $Appdrive + $Appfolder + "examfolder\" + list currentline

Hello again Tim, hope all's well.

The string object automatically takes whatever vertical height is needed, as for horizontal..

If you handle line-wrapping manually, then it isn't a problem.

Initially set the width to something large (say the screen width) and insert a newline whenever the real text width exceeds the virtual/desired width.

Good luck

Good to hear 38cjc38

Talk to you next time.
