[Beta] YiasEdit DX - The new Area 3.X Mapeditor

[Regner]

I managed to get the source code from one of the last versions of the tool how it was released to the public (before he started a new "style"). After trying to fix noggit for a while ive decided to switch to YiasDX and try to continue developing on that because its in a better "condition" and therefore has less "WTF's per minute"

Did some fixes yet:
1. Made camera working again
2. Created config files for various things (wow-patch, locale, graphic settings, ...)
3. Rearranged files and folders (shaders included in the exe, ...) to make it less messy
4. Added first bits of lighting/shading (in static screenshots it aint that obvious...)
5. All languages are now displayed correctly (russian, chinese, german "umlaute", french stuff, ...)
6. Checks for the patch and the locale are now less erroneous
7. MPQs are now sorted which means you no longer see models from 3 patches before :P
8. Other minor stuff i guess

A little screenshot:

Ill also create a new launcher which will rely on more different servers to make sure that there are no interruptions and add more features to improve the interaction with the user, see here:

Where download the last YasEdit release?

Im changing the toolbar to be more "iconish". This allows me to add more buttons with better and cleaner look. In addition a tooltip will show up and print some information about the icon when the mouse is hovering it. Currently the border and backdrop around the tooltip are missing but you should get how it'll end:

How lovely! Any update is better than no update.

Finished with the toolbar:


As you can see the same amount of buttons needs a lot less of space! In addition i can add useful information to the tooltip which will help users to get started with the program!

Link broken. Please fix <3

I feel like this thread is in need of a bump, because model editing needs a change from typical bull shit programs we get ****ed up the ass with, like Nogg-it.

[Cynianis]

You sir ⇧, are correct. Bump from me too.

Running a bit low on time but did some stuff lately:

1. Normals are updated at realtime
2. WMOs are rendered correctly now
3. Everything is rendered in the correct order to avoid weird transparencies

The following needs to be done before the next release (with source):

• Rework the loading engine (this thing is unstable... -.-)
• Make the device single threaded (goes with the above)

Is this site still up? because I tried clicking the link and the site tells me that it's down. Does anyone have a functioning mirror link? Because I got it from a different server and noggit and YiasEdit keeps crashing and says something in German regarding .tff file etc... Please help

I can't wait for the next release of this, it seems amazing. +rep
