Window textures

ialixandroae

Hello,

I have a question regarding writing a rule for windows texturing.

I have 1 folder ("WindowTextures") with 3 subfolders("Group1","Group2" and "Group3") and each "Group" folder contains a number of jpgs that are textures for windows named "window.1", "window.2", "window.3" etc.

I need a rule that applies random jpgs from a "Group" folder to a building`s windows, but also be able to change the group jpgss from the inspector.

This also applies to wall textures because I have several jpgs separated on material type - a folder for brick material with several jpgs, a folder for wood material with several jpgs etc ( I have like 4 or 5 material type) and I want to apply that rule to multiple buildings and to have random brick texture but also random material texture.

Is it possible?

Thanks !!

Ionut

P.S. - I attached the rule

Try something like this:

# Pick your group in the inspector, or move it to some internal logic.
@Range("Group1","Group2","Group3")
attr windowGroup = "Group1"

# Make the random file path for the window textures.
const windowTextureRandomPath = "WindowTextures/" + windowGroup + "/window.*.jpg")

# Make the texture be an attribute, so you may override.
attr randomWindowTexture = fileRandom(windowTextureRandomPath)

# Let me know if this works for you.

I tried to do the same with texturing the roofs (each type) but something is missing and I can`t see any texture.

Can you check please?

I attached the rule

Thanks!!!

First I tried replacing line 03 with this:

attr windowGroup = "Group" + rint(rand(1,3))

Then I realized I got more twos than ones and threes. Can anyone guess why? ( about double)

So then I did this...

attr windowGroup = "Group" + groupNum

const groupNum =
  33%: "1"
  33%: "2"
  else:"3"

This ensures each gets roughly a third each. Of course you might like to change the percentages, which you can do in this case. Also, to see the random numbers change, make sure to use "Update Seed and Regenerate", rather than just "Generate".

It`s perfect Chris!! Thanks!!

The thing is that it gives me random textures from one group. If I apply the rule I need to have random textures from random group.

(Eg. I have Brick,Cement and Wood Groups, each one of them with 5 textures. If I apply the rule on 3 lots, it gives me random textures from BrickGroup, instead maybe random texture from Brick, Wood and Cement...)

Thanks!!!
