TEXMAP support added to the Parts Tracker - Chris Dee - 2018-12-02 The Parts Tracker now supports the uploading of image files for the Texture Mapping Language Extension (TEXMAP). It should all be working, including the detection of dependencies and rendering of the preview images, but if you find any problems, please post here. There is still some work to do to support this in the Parts Update process, so TEXMAP parts may need to be excluded from the next parts update. The revised version of the submit page now allows multiple files of the same type and destination folder to be uploaded in one batch. RE: TEXMAP support added to the Parts Tracker - Philippe Hurbain - 2018-12-02 Thanks a lot Chris! The batch submit mode is highly appreciated too. RE: TEXMAP support added to the Parts Tracker - Magnus Forsberg - 2018-12-02 Great! ASAIK, there is already at least three official files with texmap content, but they are all missing the png-files. Matched 3 files in the LDraw official parts library: parts/19201p01.dat Figure Elves Hair Long Wavy with Dark Azure Tips, Braid, Bangs and Light Flesh Elves Ears Pattern parts/19204p01.dat Figure Elves Hair Long Wavy with Ears with Yellow Tips and Medium Dark Flesh Ears Pattern parts/3960p0b.dat Dish 4 x 4 Inverted with White and Aqua Swirl Pattern RE: TEXMAP support added to the Parts Tracker - Chris Dee - 2018-12-02 (2018-12-02, 14:48)Magnus Forsberg Wrote: Great! Yes, just three. These have today been submitted to the Parts Tracker. RE: TEXMAP support added to the Parts Tracker - Philippe Hurbain - 2018-12-02 Seems to work fine! I just submitted the EV3 sticker textures. Regeneration of PT thumbnails takes a time, but they do show up RE: TEXMAP support added to the Parts Tracker - Magnus Forsberg - 2018-12-02 I get an error message trying to upload an updated primitive: Header errors: LINE 2: Name line must contain actual filename 'axlecaph.dat.dat', not 'axlecaph.dat' Looks like it has added an extra .dat to my file.

I'll take a look. RE: TEXMAP support added to the Parts Tracker - Philippe Hurbain - 2018-12-02 Nothing urgent, but maybe large images would need some scaling? see http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/textures/13710g.png RE: TEXMAP support added to the Parts Tracker - Chris Dee - 2018-12-02 (2018-12-02, 15:06)Chris Dee Wrote:(2018-12-02, 14:58)Magnus Forsberg Wrote: I get an error message trying to upload an updated primitive: This should be fixed now.

That sounds like a server cache issue, which has been reported before, since the server move (hidden in a part review, IIRC). I'll mention it to Orion.

That's fine, but now the image is cut off at 500px. If you add max-width: 100% height: auto to the image tag itself, it will automatically scale (with a max of 500px) RE: TEXMAP support added to the Parts Tracker - Chris Dee - 2018-12-02 (2018-12-02, 14:55)Philippe Hurbain Wrote: Seems to work fine!

Regeneration of PT thumbnails takes a time, but they do show up Images on the TEXMAP detail pages should appear immediately, because there is no rendering involved. Preview images of the parent .dat file are rendered asynchronously, so may take a while, but I'm not convinced a refresh is currently being triggered by the submission of the TEXMAP image.

Yes, I triggered that myself! So there is a problem, which I will investigate.

Maybe I'm thinking wrong, but will not there be "normal" patternd parts in the future? Older semesters like mine still rely on MLCad, but this does not support these parts.

That's why we still have to create a fallback pattern. Look at how Philo have created a pattern for the sail on that technic sailboat, 42074.

I'm note sure if we increase our "failure level" with such a function as it is possible to miss a subpart in such a bulk review. Normally I open all parts and its subparts in different tabs, check one by one and prepare the review. When all subparts are finished I go through the tabs and send this review for each part.

RE: TEXMAP support added to the Parts Tracker - Magnus Forsberg - 2018-12-04 Yes, I kind of agree too. This was just a quick reaction after reviewing that sticker. It's not very often we have to vote on that many subfiles...

Well, as it stands now you could use a 4000x4000 scan on a 1x1 tile as well as a 20x20 pixel image on the Paper, Cardboard Base for Set 365, Wild West Pattern Our document says nothing about resolution or that a picture of a vector graphic is preferred over a simple photo (at least that is my position on it). w.

I also agree that automatic certification of dependent subparts would be too risky. |
