The Programming/Scripting MASTER THREAD
As the title suggests this thread is a place for the consolidation of programming and scripting knowledge on Polycount. It isn't meant to compete with the Tech Artist - What are you working on thread, but rather compliment it in the same way that Technical Talk relates to Pimping and Previews. Nor is it meant to compete… -

Languages and Useful Libraries: A library for those wondering is just a fancy name for some code other people have written that you can use along with your own code to accomplish a specific task, such as making games.

Wanted to tile out an image in PS using save for web but max image size is 8100px or so. This script will cut the image up into how ever many tiles you want on the x and y. Feel free to modify this and make it presentable. I just need it for terrain database work. Uses flattened image. As always save your work before doing… -

Re: The Programming/Scripting MASTER THREAD
Neat, I didn't realise that the MaxScript editor had this. For the guys who use Max Script, are there any other settings like this that you would recommend to make things easier? -

Lua is cool! From the limited times I've used it, it kinda reminded me of a combo of Javascript and Pascal, although I hate the latter, I love the former. :) Anyone used Love2d yet btw? It's a neat little 2D engine using Lua as it's scripting engine! http://love2d.org/ -
Re: The Programming/Scripting MASTER THREAD
Another one to add to the list of engines for those adverse to writing code is the Blender game engine, although very rough around the edges, it has a "logic block" based scripting system which is pretty handy for setting up the basic stuff. it's capable of doing some ok looking stuff, but i wouldn't suggest it for any… -
Re: The Programming/Scripting MASTER THREAD
originated from a message conversation: yes it's popular with game scripting (realtime system integration), I use it a lot for all kinds of tasks (many people would use python for that, which I never got into). Scripting languages like Lua are useful to "generate code", I've used Lua to generate maxscript code or shader…
