Crunch

Thank you so much! I got it working with a nurbs curve.

I also experimented a bit by adding a few empties and hook modifiers that animated the curve/path my object was following… didn’t expect that to work in verge but it did.. I enabled highlight on the curve and though the curve remained static, the motion of the object traveling the path moved like it did in Blender.

Thx again and looking forward to also being able to use Bezier curves!

Noticed the same in ver 4.1.0pre1 Blender.

Being able to export in SCORM is really powerful tool – hopefully there is a quick fix to get it working again

Have you brought up browser inspector and checked for errors, missing files?

I see you assigned your video variables with relative paths, maybe try an absolute path?

Or maybe, since you are using the replace texture puzzle, after you initially swap the image for video, when you try to do it again, the original image texture had already been replaced with a video texture?

So you might need to add some puzzles to reset things on each click function, or rig something up with the “flexible input” option enabled?

This got me curious so I actually created a test project and everything worked for me.

The only main difference was I enabled the “once ready slot” on the replace text puzzle and put the play block in there.

Not sure what you are doing with the ‘enable rendering’ puzzles, but for testing purposes, you might want to give it a try deactivating those along with the bloom puzzle.. you using the current version?

Then you, will once again remain my heros…

When you got a LOT of HTMLs mapped/binded…it can slow things down as always transposing the positions of those html elements.. i have tried to make them hiddiden/invisible. but just couldn’t shake them and their resource burden. break that bind.

OH and while you are at it…Does the SCORM loading needed to include every single file in the upload/manifest? We need to be able to cheery pick out the stuff that doesn’t have to get rolled into the SCORM file…

You guys are best devs every

Hey Xeon…YES OF COURSE! The dreaded IT department.. always looking to do the least possible work to make their jobs easier.

I suppose I have been lucky enough lately to dodge those dweebs as most of my stuff has been going via stakeholders over to the learning system dudes, where everything is zipped out into a package that they bring through their own gates to run on.

So no issues there…

Unless…Is a shader in my Blender/Verge project going lash out and read the bumps maps from a credit card in one of the users pocket???….

Maybe, but I doubt.

If you are with the IT dude in the presence of a stakeholder, be sure to remind the stakeholder that players like Microsoft, Apple And Facebook have dropped their RD piggybank into 3d/VR/WebGL.. than ask why their crack IT dude worried about all those “weaknesses) isn’t up claiming the $100K+ prizes for finding those security flaws in WebGL?

As for the concerns of someone ‘stealing’ the details that might be provided by a giltf object on the wepage.. Aren’t such products already along in the patent process b4 you go showing anything on web?

One could do the same, but better with the actual product and a pair of calipers?

I have “verged” many solidwork engineering drawings and by the time they get through my processes.. they have been decimated to the point where their mother nor God could stich them back together in any quantifiable form.

Good talk, whish I had more time for this stuff 😊

We are thinking about getting sponsorship for this goal (need circa $30-50k to make it happen) on Kickstarter or otherwise.

How about 65K PER month for a Verge3d suite tailored for C4d?? Those dudes are loaded, right? Might also be a group of the most demanding Ds ever too,.

Already might be sounding a little e demanding without the Verge team even singing up for anything😊

I Never personally tried C4d (traditionally was always out of the range of my pocket book) so I just watched a few “best 3d packages ” videos to get a feel. I do really like the strength CS4 for things like motion art, titling animations and I might considered dumping Blender just for it….

IF ONLY ANY OF THAT FANCY stuff would ever translate thru the Verge3d engine to been seen… let alone be renderable on the web browers which is our channel of distribution.

Please keep that in mind pro-C4ds.

The medium here (3d web), is ultimately always constrained the browsers(hardware) of our audiences (just like everything on web), then the verge engine, and last our editing suite.

If the roles were reversed and I was forced to get started (with a free copy of C4D), I too would be like ‘damn if I was home in blender I would go bang bang bang and have that all done sweet!’

It just doesn’t work like that though. I hate the throw out a number lets say only ~10% of cool shit you could do in your 3d suite on a video export will make through to web playback.

It is just how it is. Right now, TODAY, though a combination of basic modeling, texturing, animation, lightening, etc… provided by any 3d 2s-suite, + VERGE + PUZZLES, you are in the 99 percentile off all 3d content on the web today (1% being guys who coded things by hand)

Just go with Blender.. keep everyone on the same page keep things going forward in unison.

We are stronger together than apart.

Just my opinion..
