OpenMW 0.40.0

[DestinedToDie]

Correct me if I'm wrong DestinedToDie, but we could feasibly have a small quest or chain of quests and features to show off by end of the year. I'm being generous with the estimate here.

Bad news, we lost a junior 3D artist for now due to fried computer. He´ll get a new one on Black Friday... which is months away.

On the bright side LordBerandas made some pretty neat arrows.

I´m doing other stuff, but when I get bored of that, I´ll try getting the character working better.

Considering this, it might be a while until some progress takes place.

No worries! Thank you for the heads up.

I think we have our stop-gap solution so in theory in the coming months I can look at creating an ITP for Debian to get OpenMW-ES into 'experimental' which would be nice. The positive thing here is that it could increase exposure of the project leading to more people joining.

Is the idea here to do this simultaneously with OpenMW 1.0 release?

Not necessarily. But I think this is a topic for another thread. To the 0.12 release thread!

Just a heads up that I will be pretty unavailable from July 18th-25th. Comic con time!

I haven't been paying enough attention to this part of the forums conversations. How does content creation tasks currently work? I mean, if I say "I want to make a 3D Mesh of a battle axe" is there a task that I would grab -- similar to how the devs will pick a bug to work on? I know that I can just "do it" but I would not want to try to work on a task that someone else has taken.

My work on 3D is that of a "junior 3D artist" -- mostly I have worked in the past in Truespace and Wings 3D. I am just getting into blender to try to learn the blender environment/control scheme

Hello silentthief,

please check out the issue list to get a raw overview what needs to be modelled: https://bugs.openmw.org/projects/exampl ... acker_id=4

Sadly some of the tasks are already being worked on but not assigned in the issue tracker, your best bet is to join us at the irc chat and to talk to DestinedToDie to coordinate with the others to ensure that no one starts modelling stuff that is already being worked on.

Greetz,

damiel

I am working on making some castle pieces.

GeorgeTheWarp made a barrel and a boat. He indeed hasn´t assigned the tasks to himself. I´ll bug him to make an account and assign stuff next time I see him.

Thread for this.

Just a headsup: As soon as Aesylwinn has finished his work on configurable keyboard shortcuts for OpenMW-CS we are going into the RC phase (might still take a while). We have a decent amount of material now and this feature alone would already justify a release.

Great news. OSG landed in experimental, just trying to motivate my uploader to get around to upping 0.39... and eventually 0.40.
