I have an addon that should help, but I just need to check with it's creator if it's okay to distribute. PM me tomorrow.

It would be of great help if you could.

Its probably the fact i have a bunch of brick textures, i usually use squideey's.

Yea squidey's textures don't work with v21, they need to be fixed, if I can fix them would you want them?

It's hosted on a public file hosting service. Basically every antivirus considers basically every file hosting service bad, because all it takes is a single file that somebody uploaded to get flagged before they consider it bad.

Ah that's what I expected, thanks for clarifying it.

Oh I remember testing this!

Let me know if you ever somehow get build to survive possible in BL.

It runs fine in Wine for the time being, although it would be nice.

By any chance do you know how to get the addon list to be sorted correctly, everything in the BL I have set up in Linux is just one big list of addons that refuses to be sorted.

are you able to remake mantys

I have to find out how to get the shadow effect with high transparency, It should be possible.


I'll see what I can come up with.

General Discussion / Outdated studs break shaders, heres how to fix them.

« on: June 08, 2015, 12:58:02 AM »

I thought of this due to the fact that I got tired of going to servers and having them use custom studs that break shaders (I'm looking at you squidey's studs).

This is really ruining the shader experience, and I never really thought about it until I got a new gpu that could run shaders at max at 60fps.

One of the reasons old studs like those break shaders are due to them not having proper transparency.The best way to show an example of this is to show you the brickTOP.png

Below is an example of the old 125% studs, notice how they are not completely transparent.


And Here is how I fixed the 125% studs, by increasing transparency and leaving darker corners.



In a nutshell, to fix the studs, you just need to remake the stud at a even greater transparency, and just leaving a certain corner darker.

UPDATE : I just found out textures that cover brickSIDE and brickBOTTOM are affected as well.
If your textures use custom bottom and sides, I would suggest fix them or refrain from using.

UPDATE 2 : Here is a list of the broken and studs that are compatible with shaders :

Code: [Select]

Broken Stud List :

Tron studs - Might be fixable
Squideey's old - obsolete, use ZAPK's
Squideey's old Lego - Obsolete, replacement needed
Squideey's old 2- Obsolete
Squideey's New studs - obsolete
NoGlow - Maybe fixable?(Might break effect though)
Manty's studs - obsolete
Lego stud - Obsolete, replacement needed
Furling's - Completely broken
Cell shaded - Fixable
Brickland - Kind of still works
Blankland - Fixable

Working Stud List :
Zapk's Studs
Vita's Studs
Tristian Luigi's Studs
Ethan's Studs
Line Studs
125% Studs

Here is a link to the Brick Texture Replacer and the many studs you can find.

Well when he released the update that basically re-wrote how ghosting was done, that had a huge backfire for some systems, he probably tests things intensely before releasing them to avoid things like those happen, then lets not forget he has to do the same on the Mac version.

Still waiting for that semi-confirmed linux version in that vague comment Rotondo made.

Wow, I'm impressed!

I guess the wait was definitely worth it, Now all I'm waiting for is the MAS Powersuit and Exosuit.
I can't wait to start seeing Bug Mod servers, maybe they will be the new thing considering nobody has ported the old zombie mod.

I can't download it, Bitdefender says there is Malware on the site.

What in the world? There is no censor mod....

It's not at the moment. Control both islands for a couple minutes to win.

Sorry, but spawn killing is not an issue. There are multiple exits to the spawns and players are given a machine pistol when they spawn. That is more than enough to allow them to get out.

Do not punish people for spawnkilling as it is impossible to enforce as a rule. You can tell them to stop, but really, just kill the guy.

I was referring to the old SS server that had all swearing in the etard, not this server.

I have got to try this out, I loved it when Bushido used to host Block Bastion, the only thing that bothers me is the fact your using studs that break shaders, they break the shiny effect due to the studs not being transparent.

The server wide censor mod ruins the chat experience for me, wouldn't the user have the client chat censor enabled if they get offended?
