Hi all!
I'm expanding the DotaHattery to include a list of Hatters (artists), their in-game items, and their latest workshop submission
http://www.dotahattery.com/hatters. I've added a bunch of you from Twitter (
https://twitter.com/dotahattery) already, but if you aren't on the list (and would like to be on the list), please Tweet me, reply, or PM me with a link to your Steam workshop! The only requirement is that you have had something in the past accepted into the game.
Eventually I will have scripts that keep the list up to date with the latest accepted-into-game items and maybe workshop submissions, but for now I'll have to update them manually. If you get something accepted into the game or add a new workshop submission, drop me a note so that I can get your entry updated!!
I'm also expanding my featured workshop submissions like I did recently for Anuxi's SnowStorm Huntress set
http://www.dotahattery.com/hatters/anuxi/workshop/mirana/snowstormhuntress/. If you have a set/courier/ward that you will be submitting soon and would like to have it available to preview in real-time 3D in the Hattery, drop me a note and we'll see if we can make it work! The only requirements are that you have had something accepted in-game already in the past and that you link to its Hattery page on all Steam Workshop pages (if its a set, like Anuxi did). If it's an item set with custom animations, we won't be able to have it swap in existing in-game items (hopefully I can come up with a solution for that in the future). Depending on the item and how many people send in submissions, it may take some time for me to build the page so the sooner we get in contact the better!
Once my tools and processes mature (more automation, less manual work), I'd like to look into opening up submissions to new artists too, but for now it's only open to previously accepted artists. Sorry!
Feedback welcome! Thanks!!

Absolutely!
I'll be redoing the way I store the hatter info on the server. I derped when I made the decision to store each person as a separate .html file from a template and stitched them together in PHP. I'll be moving to just store everything as values in my database and build the html elements at runtime. It will be easier to add new hatters and to update them programmatically in the future this way.
... meaning it might be a few days before you get added as I change the way I do things. Thanks for your patience!!

Love the hattery site, and also the way it worked to promote Anuxi's latest set.
I don't have many in-game items, but hopefully there will be more soon.

To save you some time, a couple of my items that are in the game are:
lina - battle caster set
CM - heart of the north set
CK - embers of endless havok set
lina - catalyst cap
kunkka - plunder of the high seas
You're on the list to add to the list! Thanks!
(He) Aw thanks! That's a kind gesture ^_^
Hatters gonna hat. :poly121:
Added to the list to add to the list!
I just finished redoing the server backend for hatters last night and today I hope to start adding new hatters to the list. I'll try to get everyone in one go and push them to the server all at once. Fingers crossed that I get everyone in this batch today!
I'd love to be added to the list too! Thank you

Thanks! On the list to add to the list!
As a reminder, until I build scripts to automatically update the info, I'll need your help to keep your entries up to date with new workshop submissions and new items accepted into the game. Building those scripts is not high on the priority list at the moment.
Thanks and hat on!!

really annoyed I missed the contributor photoshoot on that page, I didn't know when they were doing it.
I'll get you two later tonight or tomorrow. Taking a break for a bit.
For the photoshoot, you can blame Anuxi and Danidem since they organized, cheered people on, and took the pictures. Be sure to let them know about your displeasure. Kappa
Lol yeah they weren't but Danidem lead me to believe that they were. You should still express your displeasure to them. :poly124:
same, it seemed everyone was leaving as there was a huge rush out the doors, and when i went past nothing was happening.
at least I can take my picture anytime
Only Anuxi's Mirana set is in the Hattery at the moment. I'll add some sort of overlay icon, change the border color, or do something on workshop images on that list that denote whether or not it is in the Hattery in the near future.
If you would like your next set/courier/ward to be featured in the Hattery like Anuxi's set, shoot me a message and we'll see if we can make it work.
As a side note, I can't add your workshop submission unless you actually send me the models and textures. I don't have some secret access to the submitted files (Valvo pls gimme an API to do that so that I can automatically add everyone's workshop submissions)!
Future workshop submissions by the hatters that are not featured in the Hattery will still be linked to their workshop submission pages there. Think of this page as a catalog of accepted hatters and what they've been/are up to. Yes it is possible that I may decline adding something to the Hattery. I will try not to decline any previously accepted-into-the-game hatter's new submissions, but I reserve the right to do so for whatever reason (violates Valve's workshop submission guidelines, I don't have enough time to build the page, there's some technical error preventing your item from working, etc).
Sorry for the confusion! Please let me know if you have any more questions!
Thanks for asking as I'm sure others probably had the same question! Awesome looking forward to it!
Hiya, I'm not exactly sure I know what you mean by toggle the different textures. It sounds like you want to be able to swap out the diffuse texture with the other 3 different textures. So instead of the color texture, you could have the normal map show up as the diffuse texture for example. Is this what you meant?
Exactly!
Sounds like it could be useful! I'll add it to my list of things to add to an "Advanced Hatter Tools Palette" coming in some future update. It may be awhile before I get to that though, so much to do!
Thanks for the suggestion!
Really nice project, I'd love to have some animation support for the heroes, even if it's just their respective run and attack cycles.
Thank you! Looking forward to having your future Workshop submissions in the Hattery!
Makes sense. I just need more time to fiddle with the animation systems to come up with a better solution to support more than one animation per hero that doesn't exponentially increase server harddrive or bandwidth usage.
