S3D v0.9 sneak preview - VIDEO
 

It's coming soon, a whole bunch of new features, of which I mentioned most in the S3D thread. But I just really want to share this little video. It's purpose now is to give you a little taste of what's to come, but also to show how to work with the new model viewer. And by making a new thread I can pimp this video a bit better... Hope you don't mind :smug:

Release is scheduled for this weekend, probably tomorrow night.

If you can wait just a little longer, or want to save your bandwidth, don't click the link. :rotfl:

VIDEO - 37MB (right click-save if you have problems streaming it)

NB: on a couple of occassions in the video I use incorrect terms, but I only noticed afterwards. But I didn't want to redo it :p

Sweeet and Thank you yet again for your tremendous contribution.
it looks great.
M:up::up::up::up:

Very very nice
Should enable ppl to start building some shipping
Very detailed and well explained video too

May have to have another bash at ship building :hmm:

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude:rock: That simply rocks. What you're doing will make a whole new world a possibility. There are things that many of us would love to do (I can think of at least 1,685,513,546,459,516,637,654,091) that we wouldn't even think of attempting due to the time and complexity involved, but now we have no excuse. Thanks isn't a big enough word, but it's all I have:arrgh!:

Sweet

This is going to save me "so much" work


Without this tool I would not be able to do 3/4 of what I need to do to make my mod work the way I want them to

Thank you again

Nice job!
:up:

Looks like a great program. Thank you so much for all you do!!! I can imagine there will be a line waiting to download this. I am only a beginner and I can see the great help the viewer will be. :up::up:

Awesome dude , bring on the new ships peoples:rock:

Applause. This looks incredible. I'm sure S3D will be part of the tools the devs will use to develope Sh5. :up:

Awesome stuff. :up: The sky's really the limit now with modding abilities like this.

very nice:up:

now, i must give modding a try, i think. would it be possible to add new compartments to the players sub now?

What are the differences between S3d and the SDK now?:rotfl:
:up: keep this thing up!

:rock: :rock: :rock:

W00t :D

Thank you. I put everything on pause right now and start to model my captain bunker ASAP :rock:

So far I have only needed this tool once (or twice ;)) but it was there for me! It's incredible!

Thanks Skwasjer

Mr. Sargyano

Skywasjer,

You have taken Modding to a whole new level. You have opened the door
to the unmodder to become a modder.

Thank you!!!!:up::up::up::up:

Ther is a pic somewhere of one of the devs working on a harbour in SH3
They have something very similar which makes life sooooo easy

This tool will allow everybody the same chance the devs had
Great piece of kit and well designed
( probably better too ) :rotfl:

When I have time I will certainly look at that more closely. I did open the harbor_kit (both US/GER) and all the houses, structures etc, are neatly layed out in line. I'd have to use the cfg files/city dats, etc., to allow for proper city building but at least now there's a framework. Similar for a zones editor... Hell, maybe in time even a particle engine (lol, uhm, maybe not... difficult :lol: )

:up:

Oh Skawasjer,
I hope you don't spend too much time in thinking about further projects...

WE WANT IT NOW!:/\\chop

Eh sorry...
It is very hard to wait for it after watching the vid. Especially your 'don't watch it' made me watching it.
I love your 'one moment, what's that thing here for' styl although your know
everything!:lol:
keep this up too:up:
