* Add osc_ctrl.ResizeBoardyum2022-10-04
| | | | | It's a little buggy; it likes to overwrite cells on the board. No idea why.
* Board is now blank by defaultyum2022-10-03
| | | | Also update README.
* Add 4th layer of indexingyum2022-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Double board size from 6x16 to 8x22 * Reduce parameter bits used (thanks to extra layer of indexing) * Rename template.anim to template.anim.txt to prevent Unity from constantly rewriting it * osc_ctrl.encodeMessage now pads the message so that all empty space is overwritten * Delete osc_ctrl.sendMessageCellContinuous. Now that we use a single 'Enable' bit, this idea is sidelined. * We can probably achieve the same effect by making TaSTT.shader a little more clever. For example, if we pass it the current cell number, it could render a time-based 'fade-in' effect which simulates smooth streaming.
* Add 'Do Nothing' animationyum2022-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per the VRC docs, state behaviors may not execute if the total length of time in the state is < 0.02 seconds. Adding a 2-frame 'Do Nothing' animation to the top of every layer seems to help with stability. *shrug* More cleanup: * Generate a unique return-home transition for each terminal state instead of reusing the same one. * Use globally unique state names in animator. * All animations are at least 2 frames long.
* Add parameters to resize board (likely broken)yum2022-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | ... and a bunch of bugfixes: * Shader is now transparent * Simplify shader row/column calculation * Add punctuation to texture * Fix generate.sh * Add lorum_ipsum.txt * Fix how long text is scrolled * Simplify encoding logic in osc_ctrl.py
* Add line wrapping and support for arbitrarily long messagesyum2022-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | Add trivial line wrapping algorithm. Words are only added to a line if they don't put it over the column limit, and only broken if they alone exceed the column limit. Extend board size to 16x6, using 145 bits of parameter memory. Add simple generate.sh script, which generates everything needed to use the text-to-text board.
* Redo FX layeryum2022-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Apparently the same avatar parameter can only be updated so quickly before VRChat starts dropping messages. So now we divide the board into "groups" of 8 characters. Each group can be updated relatively slowly, but all groups can be updated in parallel. Thus we can update the board group-by-group, pausing between each group. * Fix shader bugs - now there are Row05 parameters, and row00 refers to the topmost row instead of the bottom-most. * Remove outdated layer/group names files * Extend osc_ctrl.py to support encoding & sending messages * Add generate_params.py to handle creating TaSTT_params.asset * Add generate_utils.py for common code generation facilities & parameters.
* Generate 128 animations per cell (up from 60)yum2022-09-28
| | | | Also generate the full 6 rows instead of just 3
* big code dumpyum2022-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: added generator for animations and FX layer. * add generate_animations.sh * generates an animation for every cell (14*6=72) and every letter (60); 72*60 = 4212 total animations * add generate_fx.py * seems to work in-game * drives every parameter needed * add {group,cell}_names.txt * name of every group & cell parameter * the STT has 72 individual character slots called cells. They are grouped into 4-character groups to save on parameter bandwidth. Thus each slot may be indexed with 8 bits. * add SetLetters.cs * this thingy looks at each group parameter and uses it to set each cell parameter. The generated fx layer hooks the script in. * check in SDK-generated assets as references until code generators are complete
* initial commityum2022-09-27
* initial checkin of shader * 6 rows and 14 cols * currently using Noto Sans Mono font * AFAIK free as in beer & freedom
