Scripts, plugins, utilities, goodies / Anime Studio -> WME Sprite
« on: July 14, 2009, 01:04:31 PM »
Hi,

in dependence on the free download of Anime Studio (http://forum.dead-code.org/index.php?topic=3705.0), here is a tip to export animations to wme sprites (almost) directly.

1. With this free Anime Studio 5 version, you can't export single png files (in Pro version only). But you can export a png based QuickTime movie:
http://www.lostmarble.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13927
Here you can download an example movie: http://www.lebostein.de/tutorial/anime/Henry_Jump.mov

2. Download my little python script, to convert a png based QuickTime movie to wme sprite:
http://www.lebostein.de/tutorial/anime/mov_2_wmesprite.py

3. Edit the script header:

Code: [Select]
# =======================================================================

wme_directory = 'S:/WME_Games/Loeffel/data/'
wme_subfolder = 'actors'

moviepath = 'C:/TEMP/Henry_Jump.mov'

frame_hotspot = [70, 240]
frame_delay = 24
frame_alpha = 255

# =======================================================================

wme_directory = directory of your game data folder, important: end with '/'
wme_subfolder = an existent (!) subfolder for the new sprite (actors, interface, items...)
moviepath = path of your png based QuickTime movie, important: an underscore to separating name (Henry) and action (Jump) is required!

Save the script!

4. Start the script:
with double click on the script or in console: >>> python mov_2_wmesprite.py

5. Check your game directory:

before:


after:




Now, double click on the sprite to load it into the sprite editor. Have fun!

Technical forum / change background color?
« on: January 28, 2009, 09:31:14 PM »
Hi,

in wme, the background color is always black (when I create an empty room for example). I need a white paper to draw all my sprites and interfaces on it. How can I change the default background color? If it's impossible, how I can draw a global white sprite before scene and interface graphics are displayed?

Thanks...

Game announcements / 1 1/2 Ritter
« on: December 10, 2008, 03:23:44 PM »
Hi,

the adventure game "1 1/2 Ritter" ("one and a half knights") based on a german (fun-)movie was created with wintermute engine.
http://wwws.warnerbros.de/ritter/ (Demo in german available)

A new and interesting example for the commercial use of the engine...

Technical forum / Game.GetMusicPosition() starts with 2999...
« on: March 30, 2008, 06:42:17 PM »
When I examine the Game.GetMusicPosition() and no music is playing, I see "0", Ok. When I start music, the Game.GetMusicPosition() starts with "2999" (3 seconds) immediately. Why?

When I play a song with length 15000 one time, then Game.GetMusicPosition() returns:

2999......5000.....15000....0......2999

Technical forum / Get widget from LoadInventoryBox()
« on: March 17, 2008, 04:21:54 PM »
Hi,

I want to update a text object (static control with name "line") in my Inventory Box. How I can get the ID of this object? I have tested the follow things, but without success:

Code: [Select]
var gui = Game.LoadInventoryBox("interface\inventory.def");
global gui_line = gui.GetControl("line");

Code: [Select]
var gui = Game.LoadInventoryBox("interface\inventory.def");
global gui_line = gui.GetWidget("line");

Must I extract the ID from included window first?

Thanks

Done / EXPAND_WIDTH = - X don't work
« on: March 07, 2008, 11:01:11 AM »
Hi,

my font should look like old Lucas Arts fonts. My chars has 2 pixel black outlines. For a beautiful look I need 2 pixel negative overlap:



The problem is, that a negative EXPAND_WIDTH don't work. When I output a group of words like "Hello, my name is Guybrush.", then after every space WM makes a linebreak or shows illegal characters and so on. With single words negative EXPAND_WIDTH works. Other problem is, that chars are not completely printed:



1. Is this a bug or not provided?
2. How can I control the space width?

Thanks, (sorry for my english)
