Sorry for such a long wait between updates, its been in pieces and connected to workshop which wouldn't have worked in public builds for quite a while And i didn't have the energy to maintain two branches so i just doubled down on grinding this out But here we finally are Version 4.0 and nearly 15k installs [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/ead4fa8fd26d23eddeac7b0707a75ac973912bcf.png[/img] We have come such a long way I cant thank everyone enough, it genuinely means the world to me to see people using it every day But anyway patch notes! [h1]------Reworked Painting------[/h1] You can still paint with the main brush as you could before, but at low resolutions the other brushes didnt have enough character to warrant use So now ive moved things to a more tileable pattern system [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/15f1a442ee02c7fc61d404b176063a3aa7d563c0.gif[/img] Works far more flexible Makes stuff like painting bricks on a wall and then vines on that wall so much easier [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/14f880391b25d2878fb5f8f946a83ca6121fa436.gif[/img] Swap between Object and view mode to shift projection models [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/164687d516a8103d687bdd9d66b0378ef5486641.gif[/img] [h1]------Layers------[/h1] Can now paint in layers with unique palettes on each layer Great for adding blood on a monster, or vines on a wall [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/7dd77b09be0bfba2e1de47d73391c2f02b96b651.gif[/img] [h1]------OBJ Groups------[/h1] Can now import obj groups, this helps a lot with separating big scenes up into walls / floors / pillars etc, or a gun into its different components, or having the head on a player character separate from the body so theres no texture leak over to the shirt below or the hair for example [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/be0d7e53fbb6d7f236151f3235496f1959e5d817.gif[/img] [h1]------Improved Downsampling------[/h1] Now updates automatically and edge buffer now works as it should [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/bbd42100e03e0eebd752bb2ee6c46105624a4ddc.gif[/img] The gif above also shows the turntable, just press space for it to give you a spin, and space again to stop [h1]------Transparency------[/h1] Paint with transparency onto models, great for holes and details, wonderful for cloth and folliage [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/4e21f7bc29a8281a06cca171655705cc9866003d.gif[/img] [h1]------Workshop Support------[/h1] Subscribe to any brushes you like the look of here https://steamcommunity.com/app/1976160/workshop/ And theyll be downloaded next time you open the app To upload a brush to the workshop there should be a new "tool" in your steam library [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/2b622bcea731a5ce77c9a3c0acd245c16a49b432.png[/img] You will need to accept the tos before itll let you upload https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/workshoplegalagreement/ But it should prompt you and open a browser to that site automatically Once you have done that its as simple as typing in a name for the brush, browsing to the image you wish to use and clicking upload [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/0d64c1943715903ac9941912c96c36c4203cd637.png[/img] [h1]------Music player------[/h1] Was a bit nervous about adding this But 1 button to turn off and skip And i think it adds a lot to the ambiance Just out here vibing, picking some colors, using them colors on a model or reference image Feels different with chill music [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/8e3604b1e67c4827c4fff793ff6b883a4aea3736.png[/img] [h1]------Widescreen Support------[/h1] Not completely tested, but it should work better now, pls let me know if theres any screens that dont fit everything on, and ill have a fiddle [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42338613/649c571df8b13fd883fdb102b43ee678b1f8f660.png[/img] [h1]------Closing notes------[/h1] Ive tried my best to test and make sure its stable, but a lot has changed this patch, so i apologise in advance if anything's a bit wobbly And theres a lot of moving parts so there probably will be some wobbles Just let me know in the forums and ill try fix anything that does pop up as its found Guides will be out of date for a little while, but ill be editing them and adding new ones to help with workshop support shortly Also id love to see what any of you are all working on, if you have anything you wish to share please consider using https://twitter.com/hashtag/PixelPaletteCreator so its easy to find, i dont have a ton of followers on there but ill be retweeting anything i notice that pops up as long as its not illegal or lewd Thanks again, Jofer
