I am having trouble with this, I have used the scripts listed but the inventory does not show at all now.


I have connected it to my INVENTORY window script.

Updated Game Deamon but still nothing.


Any help or full scripts would be good, save my hair being pulled out. hahahahahahaha

[TheDerman]

These are the scripts I have:


inventory.script:

Code: [Select]

#include "scripts\base.inc"

global Faded;

method FadeIn()
{
 Game.InventoryVisible = true;
 for(var i=1; i<=10; i=i+1)
   {
    this.AlphaColor = MakeRGBA(255, 255, 255, 25*i);
    Sleep(40);
   }
 this.AlphaColor = MakeRGBA(255, 255, 255, 255);
 Faded = true;
}

method FadeOut()
{
  for(var i=10; i>=1; i=i-1)
   {
    this.AlphaColor = MakeRGBA(255, 255, 255, 25*i);
    Sleep(40);
   }
 this.AlphaColor = MakeRGBA(255, 255, 255, 0);
 Game.InventoryVisible = false;
 Faded = false;
}


And the relevant section of the game_daemon.script:

Code: [Select]

  // display the inventory window
  var InvWindow = Game.GetInventoryWindow();
  if(Game.Interactive && Game.MouseY > 704 && !Game.ResponsesVisible && !WinMenu.Visible && Faded==false)
   {
     InvWindow.FadeIn();
   }

  else if(Game.MouseY < 704 && Faded==true)
   {
     InvWindow.FadeOut();
   }

Hope that helps.

Many thanks TheDerman.

In the game deamon scripts does this new code replace the old (unchanged demo script) or does it need to be added with the old code??


Cheers

[TheDerman]

It replaces only the part of the daemon script which deals with the inventory (down at the bottom) - everything else should be left as it is.

You will have to change certain things specific to your game, like the Y value - my inventory is at the bottom of the screen - you may have yours at the top or somewhere else.

[SBOVIS]

ok many thanks, will give it a bash and let you know.

Hi,
     I have tried to implement these scripts but my inventory does not show.

I have attached the inventory fade script to my inventory window and changed Game Deamon script but still no inventory is showing.

TheDerman can you show me your full Game Deamon script on this thread as I think that is the issue here.


Cheers

Hi SBOVIS !

Did you create a global Faded = false; in your game_daemon.script?

[SBOVIS]

Certainly did, still no show on my inventory though, If I take the fade code out and reset it back the way it was, I get the inventory no problem. (just not fadeing)

[TheDerman]

Maybe if you post your inventory script and daemon script, we could spot the problem?

Did you insert SCRIPT = "interface\inventory.script" into your inventory.def in the WINDOW section of the file?

[metamorphium]

Also please check your wme.log for error messages. You'll usually find some clues as why it doesn't work there. If there is something written what looks like an error, post it together with requested files too.

[SBOVIS]

ok will check and post files if needed.


many thanks



cheers

[SBOVIS]

Got this to work now, many thanks, looks great,

It was the Game.Deamon script as I have other code that conflicted with it.


By the way can this fade method be used for any windows??

I have several that would work well when faded, I have defined windows so do I do a similar script and attach it and call that within other scripts when I want it to fade??


Seems feasible??

[metamorphium]

yes, you can definitely use it for any window you like.

Glad it works for you now.

[djb]

i think, that you can optimize it and skip needlessly tests in game_daemon.script...

inventory.script:

Code: [Select]

#include "scripts\base.inc"

global Faded;

method FadeIn()
{
 if(!Faded) {
  Game.InventoryVisible = true;
  for(var i = 0; i <= 255; i = i + 25) {
    this.AlphaColor = MakeRGBA(255, 255, 255, i);
    Sleep(40);
   }
   this.AlphaColor = MakeRGBA(255, 255, 255, 255);
   Faded = true;
 }
}

method FadeOut()
{
 if(Faded) {
  for(var i = 255; i >= 0; i = i - 25) {
   this.AlphaColor = MakeRGBA(255, 255, 255, i);
   Sleep(40);
  }
  this.AlphaColor = MakeRGBA(255, 255, 255, 0);
  Game.InventoryVisible = false;
  Faded = false;
 }
}

This is cool, I now have an inventory and other windows fadeing in and out, many thanks.
