Re: NodeBoxEditor [0.9.0] - Zooming, dynamic snap res

by Napiophelios » Post

NBE has a feature to export as a mesh obj
but when I try to use it looks very weird in game
sides seem to be missing / invisible

When I put the object in blender these sides appear black
while the others are grey.

when I open the object in notepad++
I can't see much difference to that of a blender object

Is there a fix for this?
Is there a way to use blender to complete the process?

EDIT : forgot to mention, I am using Krocks windows build,
incase this is a factor maybe?

EDIT2 : Alright this is actually a pretty easy fix :)
Found the answer at Blender stack exchange

Sorry, I can't offer support for Windows. I suggest making sure the resources the editor needs are available. Make sure the zip is extracted. Make sure you run the exe directly in the folder by double clicking.

I don't know if you are planning to make a next version but it would be nice if you could add the ability to create a transparent png from the perspective view of the node. Then we could use that for the inventory mage.

Maybe this helps on Windows, too. Simply edit the file with a proper text editor like Notepad++ and remove the first characters in that file.

The middle click behavior and rotation (visible from below the ground) is superior, but it is sloooooow.

Is it possible to make multi-block node-boxes with this tool? I'm sorry if this is a duplicate, as I haven't skimmed through every post in this topic.

You can make nodes which are bigger than a node, and you can create multiple nodes. It doesn't automatically generate the code to place another node with a node however

If you make multiple nodes, you need to write the Lua to place them yourself.

rubenwardy, how exactly do I create a node that's larger than 1 block?

It would also be great if created nodes can be exported as entities

Failed to save file for unknown reason.
Compiling the latest git version with cmake . && make and starting ./bin/nodeboxeditor ends up with this but file open dialog doesn’t work either.

Edit: Not properly working file dialogs are a result of missing “zenity” dependency in the PKGBUILD. When adding zenity as dependency and updating the package the file open dialogs appear as usual. The rest is still as described.

The first screenshot is because I forgot to add /use/share to the resource search path.

The file->open issue is because it can't find a GUI file open provider, so falls back to the shell. Not sure how to resolve that. NBE uses native file browsers.
