Re: BC7 linear or RGB ?

I'm new to this but I'm usually considering whether I have an alpha channel that I'd like to preserve, if so I read that DXT5 supports opacity and not just on/off masking.

Understanding reflectionmap and gloss in the 2015/2017 engine?

A lot of mods have ugly, mirror-like reflections across their entire surface including windows. Most tutorials point towards reflectivity being a function of the refractive index variable in the <reflectionmap> properties of a material defined in the i3d file. Example: <Reflectionmap fileId="7&...

Re: Blender normals on edited vanilla asset

Thank you much! Showing the normals it became much more apparent that this part had just been carelessly hacked off -- it's no longer a closed volume and has many non-manifold parts. I've had a hard time finding much info on normals besides the discussion here at https://learnopengl.com/Advanced-Lig...

Blender normals on edited vanilla asset

I'd like to add normal data back to part of a mod. The part is the rear hydraulic/PTO section of the Lamborghini from FS2015. The rest of the tractor was chopped off in blender at some point by the original author. When I take this part back into blender, the original diffuse and normal textures lin...

Re: How to spread straw in FS22?

If you think the trigger not being anywhere within the placeable isn't broken, you, in fact, might be a little broken. No need for gaslighting when the workarounds are hilariously absurd.

Re: mack trucks getting stuck

The Man truck is an agri-truck, it is used in forestry. That's why it has wide wheels option. The Mack is a road train truck. It is not designed to go off-road. What for a modded version will be your best bet. How to tell everyone you know nothing about trucks without telling them you know nothing ...

Re: How to spread straw in FS22?

Ok. It's completely broken. Good to know. Wish there was a place we could see what's working and what's not since this is a huge waste of time having to try every single piece of equipment individually to see if it was even implemented in the game. Since there's no option for straw at all I wonder w...

How to spread straw in FS22?

I've done what I've done in previous FS versions and I've watched a couple videos. I put a straw bale from the shop in the straw shredder with a front-loader and drive around my horse and cow enclosures 18 times, jamming the shredder into any angle of I can think of around the enclosure and if there...

Re: workaround grain missions

So maybe stealing it in front of them isn't the best idea. You have to be slightly more clever than that. There's good money and/or retribution to be had if you can figure out the not getting caught part.

Re: workaround grain missions

Or just add the grain to your silo. These grifters aren't going to get away with non-payment. I'll steal your wheat and barley and all your other grains. Farmins changin.

Re: Removing Weed

Bumping this - farming academy says to use a "hoe" because other methods will not work specifically on beets and potatoes. Rotary hoes would simply mulch the crop whereas references to agricultural hoes look a lot like the Chopstar under the mechanical weeders.

Re: Tractor - broken trigger - trigger availability cycles rapidly [FS2015]

Problem: Trigger point interactions including refueling, when triggered, are rapidly flashing in the info menu and impossible to interact with. The meshes of buildings and environment are oscillating/flickering when entered in the model and viewing the F5 debug overlay. Refueling requires the overla...

Multiplayer mouse steering and 70's to 90's tractors, 70 series IH Case, Deere 55 series, 2+2 IH 88 series, and similar. Maybe a NH 65 harvester or older deere or case.
