This guy... how many extra miles do you have left to go?! Unreal work!

Shhhh don't interrupt the man while he's in the groove!

This might have been covered before, but why does the tool not have CMYK colors and uses RGB colors? Thanks

Hey, so the tool's underlying file format is SVG and unfortunately, SVG doesn't support CMYK colors -- it only uses RGB. I can't really use .ai (Adobe Illustrator) as the underlying format because it's a proprietary file format and does not have public documentation.

I've considered using PDF as the underlying format, which does support CMYK, but it's been unclear to me if Tina would accept PDF. I should double check with Justin...

Thank you for the follow up and explanation…makes sense. Appreciate all your work on the excellent tool!!

I made some small UI updates tonight: you can now view the gallery image without downloading it, and I've also created separate "Order Chips" and "Share" buttons. They both do the same thing (generate a "share" link) but I wanted to have an "order" button to make sure it was clear to folks that that is something you can do!

If I may be so bold…showcase mode? Your render looks amazing!!

Still working on it I decided to bang out a couple other smaller improvements (like gallery image change), so I got a little distracted, but glad to hear it's still something that people are interested in!

So many new features since I last tested out this amazing tool. Thank you for creating this and continuing to improve it!

QuietMaple updated Chipmatic Studio (a poker chip design tool) with a new update entry:

Added "Showcase" mode for visualizing chips in 3d scene

You can now visualize your entire set of chips on the felt!

The view is pretty static right now: it automatically displays two racks of each chip, but I plan on making this configurable in the (near?) future. I hope to add additional configuration, splashed pot views, and higher quality renders in the future. Maybe even ray tracing? We'll see where what feels fun

I know this screenshot doesn't look that different than the preview I posted a...

Might be the coolest feature yet - I'm blown away how cool this showcase mode is!! Future released for this, namely being able to more easily view and capture/screenshot the look of the showcase, would be next level. @QuietMaple is my hero. Thanks for doing all that you do - I'm obsessed with Chipmatic Studio

I just screenshot and crop.
I'm excited for the ideas of a splashed pot effet

Added new Inlay Template -- "Sunrunner"

I've just added another homage to vintage poker chips. As with all of the inlay templates, you can tweak the layout, colors, fonts, text, etc. in many different ways.

Keep it classic:

@QuietMaple do you (or anyone else) know the hex color codes for the base and spots on the ’Mr Burns’ $1? Thanks!

Thank you very @QuietMaple

Can you add some way to have some of the chips in the stack flipped over, either in the design or showcase? That way we can see what a stack looks like for chips whose edge spots aren't symmetrical. Like this:

Hm, yeah I could probably add that. I would likely add it to the "showcase" mode to avoid making the chip building interface too complicated. I've been wanting to add other display configuration features to showcase mode in general.

Also, I'm not sure if this is the intention, but there are gaps in the edge spots for Squish Direction: Alternating:

I would expect it to look like this (which I created by manually with two different line patterns) where the squish direction of neighboring spots match:

I understand the first image DOES show alternating squish directions for each individual spot, but the problem is when the group has no gap between the spots it makes the squish like there are weird gaps. This seams to have been manually fixed for random squish direction, even when the group has gaps between the spots (i.e. in each group, the middle spot's squish direction isn't truly random, it depends on the squish direction of the other two spots in its group):

Not a big deal since I can manually control for it by making several different line patterns, just thought I'd throw it out there. I understand this is probably not worth working on also since there is kind of two different behaviors:
(1) when there aren't gaps between spots in a group, the squish direction of neighbors have to match
(2) when there are gaps between spots in a group, the squish direction doesn't have to match.

Perhaps the best solution is a toggle "Make adjacent spots in a group match squish direction." The user could turn that toggle on or off as the wish for Random or Alternating squish directions. But yeah, probably more work than it's worth.
