Is actually the same as rotate_x, i didnt notice that yesterday. so how does that code look like then? is it faster

spacecloud

It would be

impact.rotate_x(-PI / 2)

If one of them is faster, it's probably not by much.

strange, that doesn't work for me.but doesn't matter the code does

im trying to set the rotation of the decal in the decal script , but it doesn't do anything. why is that?

func _ready():
	
	random.randomize()
	add_to_group("ignore")
	
	var impactparticles = particles.instantiate()
	self.add_child(impactparticles)
	impactparticles.global_transform.origin = self.global_transform.origin
	impactparticles.emitting = true
	playImpactSound()
	var size = random.randf_range(minExtends,maxExtends)
	self.extents = Vector3(size,size,size)
	self.rotate_x(deg2rad(random.randf_range(0.0,360.0)))

other good news the subviewports are fixed in alpha9! now i have seperate FOV and no world clipping

spacecloud

It looks like the functions and directly rotating the basis around its own vectors do actually give different results, if the object was already rotated.

The random rotation should be around y, instead of x.

self.rotate_y(deg2rad(random.randf_range(0.0,360.0)))
rotate_y , rotate_x, rotate_z > gives no rotation

spacecloud

Doing it the other way might work:

basis = basis.rotated(basis.y, randf() * TAU)

DJM

no, same results

DJM

shotgun!

spacecloud

The decal's _ready function is called before look_at is called, so the rotation gets reset.

So you have to either move look_at to the decal, or the rest of the rotation to the camera script.

tnx! moved it to the raycast code and it was rotate_x i needed works fine now

DJM

nope i was wrong :'( adding random rotation doesnt give correct lookat normal rotation

if result:
		var collider = result.collider
		var n = result.normal
		var p = result.position
		
		var impact = impact_normal.instantiate()
		collider.add_child(impact)
		
		
		impact.global_transform.origin = p 
		impact.look_at(p + n)
		
		
		impact.basis = impact.basis.rotated(impact.basis.x, -PI / 2)
		
		impact.global_transform = impact.global_transform.orthonormalized()
		impact.rotate_y(deg2rad(random.randf_range(0.0,360.0)))

@spacecloud do u know how to add random rotation without messing up the lookat hit normal?

i would also like to know if i can add an int to the firebullet func().
and some random bullet spray.

func firebullet():
	
	var screen_pos = reticle.get_global_transform_with_canvas().origin
	
	var add = reticle.get_texture().get_size().x /2
	var wantedpos = Vector2(screen_pos.x +add, screen_pos.y +add)

something like(untested tho)

func firebullet(int):
	for int i = 0 , i >0 , i++

spacecloud

DJM
Rotating around local y shouldn't mess up the normal:

impact.basis = impact.basis.rotated(impact.basis.y, randf() * TAU)

Firing multiple bullets at once:

for i in range(number_of_bullets):
    # Fire bullet

For spread you could add a random Vector2 to the reticle's position when firing.

DJM

spacecloud ur a legend, tnx! works perfect.
i knew i should have added random vector2 to the reticles' position, will try it out

DJM

can someone explain how to setup environment reflection maps?
now my metal texture parts are way to dark. ive tried messing with the environment setup settings but i cannot seem to figure it out.

also , why is 'bloom' a variable in 'glow' ? shouldn't that be a separate setting?
i only want to have bloom , and not glow in my environment

TwistedTwigleg

DJM I think you can get only bloom but no glow by disabling all the filters (I think that is what is called) by unchecking all of them. I’m not totally sure though.

DJM

TwistedTwigleg disabling all the filters also disables bloom.
but doesnt matter i solved my issue. i had weird edges on my weapon models in alpha9 when using glow, this was fixed in alpha10.

cybereality actually reflection probes dont do anything about the black metal parts
ive setup a panorama sky in the environment settings but im not getting the 'sky' as reflection source
how do i setup a 'global' reflection source?

cybereality

Bloom and glow are basically the same technically. They involve overlaying a copy of the viewport and adjusting the colors and blend properties (for example, using an additive blend). The difference is that bloom also blurs and expands the overlay. But they are essentially the same thing.

cybereality

In Godot 3.x at least, reflection requires a ReflectionProbe. Otherwise you just get the sky material, which in your first shot is a bland green, so the gun looks correct. If you want it to reflect the scene objects, then you likely need to add some ReflectionProbes (these are pre-computed cubemaps of the world).
