Trying to remove line on asphalt textures
hi, i am trying to remove the line on the center of asphalt foundations. It is driving me nuts...
Other then working myself through the tutorial mod from the documentation i have no experience modding satisfactory.
So far i have used FMod to check the texture files. Using the ficsit textures as reference, it should be the left edge of the top half causing the issue. But i have not really found anything clearly causing it, in any of the texture files. I also compared the ramp _BC file, as the line is not present on ramps, but the difference is really small if there at all.
Are there other places, apart from the texture file, that would be worth a look for finding the cause? And am I correct with my assumption, that it would be the left edge, top half of the texture? (if yes, i might try and modify the texture slightly, to see if it makes any difference)....
why does the mod lie, i can't upload a new version of my mod
what the title says, also noticed the game version doesnt match, and sml version
Solution:
i selected the wrong folder
I just finished my first building. Feedback?
This is a small little building that is placed directly on the output of a miner. I would appreciate feedback, does it look like it belongs on the miner?
Is it possible to stack normal decals?
I have a 9-square UV map for a normal. In the center square, I wanted to put the ficsyt logo. However, because the Ficsyt part of the normal map has transparency, it causes a weird seam. I then tried to put the fixsyt logo over the 9-square so the center of the 9-square would have its normals applied, but it doesn't show in Unreal. Is there anything I can do?
Solution:
I got it working. I don't know what specifically was causing it, (it might be because the face was rotated 0.01 degrees), I just duplicated and extracted the face I wanted it to project on. Then I did Mesh->Normals->SetFromFaces to get rid of vertex normal weights. Now I can overlay normal decals.
Can't find AlienGlow material
I'm trying to create a window that glows purple, like the Dimensional Uploader. In Blender, I assigned a material to the faces, but none of the four materials in the starter project associated with the Dimensional Uploader apply the glow. I used FModel to get a copy of the actual Dimensional Uploader model and directly copied the faces of the window over my model. I then assigned the material FModel says it has. It still just shows a grid texture in-game. What can I do to fix this?
Solution:
If unsure, try adding a static mesh component to the buildable using that mesh and materials
Belt Speed Test
i need some volunteers to test this mod and tell me what is the max speed you can get with stable flow on this test belt
this mod is for testing purpose i share the source and alpakit version
it include a belt (test belt) and a Miner (test miner)
unlock at tier 1 (one iron plate) an configurable speed in main menu...
Solution:
Hmm Using Riva Tuner to track FPS I am at 120 FPS with out mod and with mod and belt speed running at 10000 items/m I am loosing between 40 and 60 frames per second.
How do i get the fuel item for a generator
Im new to modding, and im instancing a new blueprint under "Build Generator Fuel" but want to get the current fuel under the buildable, my current setup is shown in the image, but instead of the name of the fuel (or path) i get
/Game/FactoryGame/Map/GameLevel01/Persistent_Level.Persistent_Level:PersistentLevel.Build_GeneratorRad_C_2147469156.FuelInventory | FuelInventory. I would also like to know if there is a less "taxing" method, like an event that fires when a different fuel is inputted.
My end goal is to make a buildable that changes power output based on the fuel type, but im taking it one step at a time.
i also have no idea how to code c++. (if c++ is like python, then i know some python)...Solution:
Try
Get Current Fuel Class as generators have 1 slot for fuel and 1 slot for "supplemental" i.e. water
