Hello AppGameKit programmers,

One quick question regarding Lightmap and AI:

Are there any commands for these functions available? Or can we hard code these functions?

Thank you!

Lightmaps can be applied on 3D objects using

SetObjectLightMap ( objID, imageID )
SetObjectMeshLightMap ( objID, meshIndex, imageID )

Your objects must either have 2 sets of UV's or unique uv's so that a generated lightmap can be applied. This can be used to pre bake lighting into a scene.

There are no AI funcions as this is up to the programmer to implement as its normally quite game dependant.

I understand. A normal pointlight used from the commands can be converted into a static one, baked?

Hi

Lightmap

I don't think AppGameKit has a lightmapper (like Dark basic had, or like unity/UR...), unfortunately.

I think it's perhap's possible to code a lightmapper in AGk, if you can do it, please post the code .

You have to create the lightmap of your level by your-self, in your modeling or lightmapper software.

What is the lightmapper that you use ?


AI

For AI :
- if you use gameguru and ggloader for agk, you can use the AI from ggloader.
- if you use only AppGameKit, you have to create Ai by your-self, in coding in AppGameKit .

We do have some GLSL based AI concepts by Janbo out there, so be shure to check the shader thread

Yeah some "concepts", I totally forgot about it, to much stuff going on for me now
It would use the same concept from game of life where you save a new state in the render texture and check the adjacent pixels for its state.
But instead of just saving alive or death you need to save some heuristics.
