B A D * M O R F O: Multi-user 3D Object HyperBasher ( Edit | Construct | Build | Customize | Prefab | Mod )

An in-game multi-user framework | template | subsystems | embeddable application to extend into various Editors, Constructors, Builders, Customizers, Prefabbers, Modders based on HyperBashing: Collaborative Realtime 3D Kitbash Methodology White Paper … The Universal Constructor!

Potential Use for BAD*MORFO?

We’re developing this subsystem for [FONT=comic sans ms]GOD of DREAMS MMO FTPS/RPG Sandbox to support *3D HyperBashing *Philosophy (*Real-time Collaborative *KitBashing) empowering users the ability to collaboratively customize nearly every Entity in the “Dreamworlds” to enhance the social gaming experience.

We believe Hyperbashing will allow us to achieve functional Game World Simulation Interaction allowing different Game World simulations to merge content, game mechanics, players, etc.

BAD MORFO is a Glorious 3D Object Multi-user Placement Tool. Its core feature set is Mesh Object Spawn/Delete, Orientation, Material Parameter Adjustments, Server Save/Load. It provides Visual abstraction, so that developers can easily add their own logic that meets their specific needs. The core feature set enables collaborative construction at various design layers:

  1. Designer

  • Level Building

  • Entity Variation Pre-fabrication: {Character Armor Sets, Masks/Helmets, Creatures, Firearm Weapons, Melee Weapons, Vehicles/Crafts, Machines, Props }
    Game Administrator / Story Director

  • Story / Dialogue / Narration

  • Mission/Quest Building
    Player

  • Customization

  • Structure Building

Add whether you think you need to or not… It’s one BAD*MORFO! [TABLE=“align: center, border: 0”]

What is this? Can you show us a sensible demo and potential use?

Hello @rotwang,

Thank you for your interest. This WIP is to show off the system as it develops/evolves (new word = evolops) and features added. Demo & Tutorials will be produced after we complete Core Features: Multi-user Mesh Object Spawn/Delete, Orientation, Material Parameter Adjustments, Server Save/Load.

MorfoSmartShapes

		MorfoSmartShapes

		Are merely StaticMeshes (for Static Mesh Parts) with specified Name used by Morpheus to associate Morpheus Objects (ie Connector) and Entity Component Objects (ie Particle, etc). Any staticmesh using the specified name will be considered a MorfoSmartShape, but we attempt to use Shapes related to the Object its associated too. Logic and Data are decoupled. A simple mechanism that allows the SmartShape representing an Object to be orientated like any standard (Static Mesh) Part.

		Connectors

		Our first Smartshape will support Connectors. Connectors are associated to a specific part, storing metadata as to what and where these components can be attached for Auto Alignment (object snapping). Metadata (decoupled data) consists offset transform for attachment, and a list of connectors allowed to attach

Symmetrical | Mirrored Bone Attachment Rotation FAIL [TABLE]

The Symmetrical Attachment Rotation fail - See Videos. Attachment uses relative rotation and YZ axis inverted +180 degrees of the ‘normal’ rotation on opposite side. Rotation on Y axis, is throwing everything off. I’m open to any and all recommendations. Thanks in advance.

Hmm… If you’re applying the rotation of one mesh to a mirrored mesh is there some consideration for it being mirrored?

Looks interesting by the way!

#27

Hello [USER=“37382”]Valkrie Sound[/USER], Thank you for the inquiry and the LIKE. I merely mirrored the vertices in Blender. However, I did not make any changes to the pivot. I swapped out my custom meshes with engine cylinder mesh to determine if the pivot is part of the problem. The issue persists. I do feel the socket and pivot rotations are relevant to the problem, just not sure if there is a local rotation bug. You can Download the Character Blueprint to see symmetry function it in action.

I’ll be integrating BAD*MORFO at the core of the God of Dreams FTPS RPG Sandbox MMO, working towards achieving functional: Game World Simulation Interaction (that is, to communicate data, and to synchronize actions), allowing different Game World simulations to merge content, game mechanics, players, etc.

BAD*MORFO will accomplish World Merging with multi-user modular assembly and a custom HTTP JSON API to send construction/destruction commands between Servers. This is where JNL will be put to work Serializing/De-Serializing Data to sent via HTTP API to re-construct assembly of the world’s content if instantiated with the API.
