lMAXl Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 well as it's not really difficult to do, everyone can take font and add it to his script. can admit that the creator ppl not really get it from the creator itself where he share it and download something containing it. will be similar situation with the idea of adding them directly on the world editor gizmo will ask to have the right of the font and all new ppl that will come to the game and see font on the editor will say " awesome stuff gizmo / lisa " when it was not even them who did it. will be similar situation like the tattoo contest or for those doing pose / hairstyle for them you only see there name on the update post. the names of those who help them should be more visible.

( thing he added on the V3 ) that allow someone that use the generator to easily move letters especially usefull for complex fonts that can have differents width. it not very long ajusting the letters to not them overlap. think it's something that can't be fixed as will mean the script will have to check for every letter if letter overlap and if overlap changing width to custom one. EDIT for everyone : Added ABC Curves download link: https://mega.nz/file/nxFUUapK#i7bY97CeNgDuKkg5Qy-zQFT91UF0EQkXuONmU7Rx-nY As said for other font, letter don't have same width and length so you need manually adjuste spacing on X / Y axis. The text generator of GottaGo will never totally remove work to do depending the fonts. quality and detailled custom font will always be complicate to adapt than more simple font In V4 maybe i could calculate the width of each letter from the json. It's possible but pretty hard work as it's a combination of the rotation, the size and the type of object. Each object work a bit differently from the others. Another way to do something would be to create a size parameter for each letter. But then most of the work should be done for each new font. I will think about it but i won't have the time for now.

The text editor i created is something pretty basic. I'm pretty sure they would be able to do something better directly in the game. Using objects the way we do isn't good for optimization. If they created letters object like Alexa suggested, it would really end up being a better solution. Rodin and chloe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THX Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) These are great and will lawyas be useful, but I'd rather have an object(s) we could attach an image (or texture) to create signs in Photoshop, Gimp, Paint - whatever. That would increase optimization even more. Edited June 9, 2020 by THX AlexaDarkness and Rodin 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lMAXl Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 well habillity to apply custom texture to an object would be game changer if come to 3DX but if 3DX start become like S.. ppl will effiectivement need more ram and better network connection and will mean the texture willl have to be storage somewhere to be load by every ppl. will extend the use of bandwidth.

It wouldn't impact load times much until roughly 800 - 1000 or so images had to load at once. Then it would depend on the speed of a third party image hosting service like Photobucket for example if 3DX didn't want to image host.. Naturally, best case scenario is if images could be uploaded directly to the 3DX servers and they hosted.. From what I've been told directly by Unity game Devs is that Unity was not built to handle lots of little objects like we build with. It's rather amazing how quickly rooms do load.

Losst AKA AnnieBunny Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Let me add my thought about the topic. Basically it is possible to make the script use that "positioning box" to get correct letter dimensions. I'd suggest following algorythm: 1. User saves his letter AND the sizing box in a single file. When the script reads the file it distinguishes the sizing box from letter's part by material (let's say sizing box must be some "glass_1" material and letter shouldn't use that material at all) 2. Each time user saves his letter, he should adjust the sizing box's width according to the letter he is going to save. 3. Script could take positioning box's coordinates instead of global coordinates, so basically user should only move the pos. box over his letter to be saved, not the letter itself. 4. Letter dimensions should be saved in an object to be used when building a string. It is a good idea to start with the parameters for true-type fonts. They are following: width, hieght, bearingX, bearingY, advance AlexaDarkness 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TV9CD_Nikki Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 I've been able to import letters just fine, but they are huge. Like, larger than my avatar by about 10-20x. Resizing them in the game separates all of the blocks. Am I missing a way to resize them before merging them in, or during the merge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TashaTight Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Just wish they would kinda give us object alphabet that is already in server assets so it doesn't require much memory to use, so we could compile text more easy with lower amount of objects involved as nice as this is to see this.

Before resizing, make sure you select center in the header menu, then hold ctrl to make the white square appear. You will be able to resize letters correctly that way.

It need a bit of testing in game to find the perfect settings but well it works pretty well. Hiyas GottaGo, I tried to download the latest version of the Text Editor from the link you provided and Mega keeps giving some kind of transfer error and timing out. I would prefer to not have to create an account at a site I will otherwise never use. Do you have this file hosted anywhere else, or is it possible to do it as an attachment here that we can access?

DutchFrank Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Trying to use this tool but the text that is being generated is way too big. There is talk about a font size setting but that setting is nowhere to be found. What am I missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lMAXl Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 @DutchFrank there is function to resize grouped object on world editor but when we don't know we can't know except see it somewhere or someone tell you. when you set your tools on the resize tools.change pivot to center then click on shift on your keyboard. Normaly you have triangle X Y Z axis and when you click on shift key it become square. then click with your mouse on the square and move it will resize it whitout broke the letter. https://streamable.com/4zrdc6 , video to explain ( have did mistake on video clicked first shift when i was on mvoe toom but it's explain the same ). of course will not be custom resize it keep aspect ratio.

JunBug Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I am having issues with this since a Microsoft update , when I try to save the file, it forces it to save as a notepad document and not a world document , even if i right clicked and try to save it like that. If there a way to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lMAXl Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 @JunBug Ok, i have some idea that can help. 1) did you tryed open on 3DX, i mean maybe just extensions taht are associed to notpad soft so it open on notepadd and it's just the visual of notepadd soft and can still use on 3DX. 2) check first on the script code of gottago using notepad or something similar if the line 122 it say: download(data, filename+".world", "text"); If it's not ".workl" change back ext to .world and see if work now. ( i don't think it's the extension that have been change on the script but you can still look ). 3) if first step don't worl, try to show extensions. Go on the " file explorer " > Appearance > option > Folder option > view > and uncheck " Hide extensions for known file types ". It will show extension for every files and try rename to " .world ". if don't work with this method you can throught register. - Winkey + R > type regedit > enter. navigate to the following key : Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced Look up for a DWORD entry labeled as HideFileExt. Double click on the mentioned DWORD entry and set its value as 0. This will show up the hidden file extensions. A value of 1 will hide the file extensions. Exit the Registry Editor and then reboot computer for the changes. if both method don't help, i have no other idea why it force ".world" to be download as texte file. maybe something conflict.
