CamoPicker 1.0.0.1 Is Available
-
Checked it out this morning. I like. Observation Simple visualization button, when clicked, changes the weapon back to the default AR-15. So, if I work with the 1911 in advanced visualization and carry it back to the main form, to work with it there it won't stay as the 1911 if I click the simple visualization button. Question Is it possible to select the weapon on the main form and then that becomes your weapon for the entire application until you select another weapon? It's 4:14am here in New York and I am still asleep. Hope I made some sense. Again, great stuff here John.

Simple visualization affords you no options other than the selection.sequence of colors and forces the use of the default weapon template. It you want to use another template, you have to go advanced.

Roger. I guess my question was more geared to giving the user the ability to see various weapons, in the user selected color pattern, on the same landscape image without having to jump between windows. I will check it out more at home tonight and tomorrow. :thumbsup:

"No, that is just the earthly manifestation of the Great God Retardon." - Nagy Vilmos (2011)Okay - I added a button on the advanced vis form that allows the user to select any of the available weapons as his default. That way, when he clicks the simple button, he'll get the current default, and that will also be the default weapon shown in the advanced form when he opens it (unless another one has already been chosen but not made the default). It will be made available this evening.

"No, that is just the earthly manifestation of the Great God Retardon." - Nagy Vilmos (2011)I added two more camo patterns as well. It might be a day or two before the next update.

:thumbsup: I will go over the app some more this weekend when I have free time away from work.

http://www.paddedwall.org/guns/camopicker.aspx[^] Download link is at the bottom of the page. EDIT ======================= The following items will be in tonight's build (sometime around 4:30pm US central time): 0) I remembered that I added some colors to the Duracoat paint system item, and because I didn't have the actual color values at the time, they'll all show up as white. I've since added the actual color info. 1) Currently, if you turn off all weapon layers in the advanced vis form, it will render a completely blank image. While there's really nothing wrong with that (because at least the app doesn't crash as a result - grin), I modified the code to at least produce the select weapon's outline.

A new (better) version is now available.

I was going to respond to your reply to the "It's Hard" thread in the lounge), but you deleted it. :) Creating new weapons is goes something like this: 0) Weapon templates require two files - a mask file, and an overlay file. 1) Each of those files must 1500x720 pixels and 96 DPI. 2) Each of the images must be a PNG file with alpha channel transparency (you can create these with Photoshop, Paintshop Pro, paint.Net, Gimp, etc). 3) The filenames must be like this: MyWeapon_mask.png MyWeapon_overlay.png ("MyWeapon is the base filename, and BOTH files must be the same in this regard.) 4) The _mask file uses magenta as the mask color to indicate all areas on the combined image that are NOT the weapon. This is important. If you don't use magenta, CamoPicker won't make the correct areas transparent. 5) After you've created your files, you have to manually edit the CamoPickerData.xml file, and add a new item to the
CamoObjectssection. It should be fairly obvious how that goes if you use the existing entries as n example. I don't use feathered edges on the overlay file because CamoPicker isn't doing alpha blending when combining the various files into a single image. Look at any of the existing overlay files to see what I mean.".45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly" - JSOP, 2010

If I recall, and my recall tends to be fuzzy these days, I deleted it and reposted it here in this thread where it belonged.

Meaning that you could get these patterns on any other polygon? Like a t-shirt?
Bastard Programmer from Hell :suss:
I included the ford logo as an example that as long as you adhere to the specified rules, you can camo anything you want. :)
