Medieval House - Base Attributes
This will be a quick one, now qe are going to assign what modules go on each wall. We have three types: regular wall, wall with the window, wall with doors. Let’s start by seperating walls, again split by normal, check Y and invert selection. Append a faced and make unique points.
Now we’ll randomly assign walls and windows. But there is one condition to that and we’ll need a roof blockout. We don’t want windows to face there the roof is, that’s just wrong, so we are going to check by intersection if the primitive is facing a wall or not. If yes, it’s definitely a wall, else we randomly choose if it’s a wall or a window. This is a script for that.
//This is where we start our intersection ray
//If you use @P in primitive wrangle it returns
//center of the primitive
//Also we lower it down because roof is rarely
//so high that wecould intersect
// it from the center of the wall
vector start_pos = @P+@N*0.001-{0, 1, 0};
vector pw, uvw;
int inter = intersect(1, start_pos, @N, pw, uvw);
//If there is no intersection it returns -1
if(inter==-1)
{
s@type = rand(@primnum+ch("Seed")) < ch("Probability") ? 'window' : 'wall';
}
else
{
s@type = 'wall';
}
i@floor = @P.y<3 ? 0 : 1;
Next we need our doors. Since we know for sure our windows face outside, we’ll just pick one of them to be our door module. Drop down a split and write @type==”wall”, then another one with @floor==0 in the condition, for each floor then split by 0 primitive, assign type of that primitive to be door. Merge everything together.
That’s all from that, next time we’ll start on making walls look like walls.
