Support / Re: Expanding TileMap's Alt to copy from all layers

Has this feature been added? This would really streamline editing on a project i'm currently working on

Support / Tilemap reverts to tiles I painted previously in Playmode.

« on: March 11, 2016, 12:30:01 pm »

Having this problem yesterday and today, every time I press play in playmode the tilemap reverts to a previous set up I had a couple of days ago. As soon as I stop it, it goes back to the latest layout I had done in the editor. This does not change if I re-commit the tilemap and only happens in playmode as stated. I checked tileMapData file and the tileMapEditor file and they are both dated 2 days ago. I am only using these files in one scene on one new tilemap so no other scenes or tilemaps could be interfering with these files.

Any cause for this or solution?

Support / Re: Proper steps for bump-map lighting on a tilemap?

Any chance this could be elaborated on?

To calculate the normals in the tk2dSpriteCollectionBuilder.cs
it contains these lines after the normals are recalculated to calculate the tangents.

                            tmpMesh.RecalculateNormals();
               
               coll.spriteDefinitions.normals = tmpMesh.normals;

               if (gen.normalGenerationMode == tk2dSpriteCollection.NormalGenerationMode.NormalsAndTangents)
               {
                  Vector4[] tangents = new Vector4[tmpMesh.normals.Length];
                  for (int t = 0; t < tangents.Length; ++t)
                     tangents[t] = new Vector4(1, 0, 0, -1);
                  coll.spriteDefinitions.tangents = tangents;
               }

I have found "chunk.mesh.RecalculateNormals();" inside the tile tk2dTileMapMeshBuilder.cs
but I am unsure of how to apply the simple tangent code above to the TileMap.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Edit : I have solved the problem by using the attached script called "TangentSolver.cs"
and implementing this line of code "TangentSolver.Solve(chunk.mesh);"
inside the tile tk2dTileMapMeshBuilder.cs script just after the normals are recalculated.

Like so

chunk.mesh.RecalculateNormals();
         TangentSolver.Solve(chunk.mesh);

Works like a charm,
Maybe you could implement this code into the next update.

Never mind, its in tk2dSpriteCollectionBuilder.cs

line 1939:
tangents[t] = new Vector4(1, 0, 0, 1);

Changed it to this :
tangents[t] = new Vector4(1, 0, 0, -1);

Worked like a charm

Any updates on this? Or a location I can find the code to edit myself?

The issue can be corrected by inverting normal maps in the Y direction,
but I am also using height maps, and this cannot be rectified in the heightmap image,
the tangent on the y-axis needs to be flipped otherwise it will not display correctly.

Any help with this would be great as I really need it working for this project.

Thanks
