[wgit][wigl][skin] Almost complete plugins + Tutorial

neodos · Post by **neodos** » Mon Sep 17, 2007 11:24 am

Hello,

You may have seen that i made some mainmenu skins, not as only chaging bitmaps but moving bitmaps, text, button chaging the buttons etc

I made research on this 3 tags: [wgit][wigl][skin] and came out with almost done plugins, Turk was doing research on wgit tag too, he will probably update the tags on http://plugins.pheonic.co.uk/
Special thanks to him.

With it i attached 3 pages of explanation of the tags so you understand how tags work, there's not really need of a tutorial it's meta editing, as i said i found a lot of values like 80 or 90%

I hope this can help someone to make their own mainmenu skins and the in-game menu skins too

Yes i take much time to release because i was still reasearching while making 3volved mainmenu skin.

And yes update ^^ i didn't made transitions, maybe transitions are enums.

I just spruced up the sily tag, you might want to take a look and add it to this

I completed that tag awhile ago. Did you find something new?

I dont think he found completely new stuff, but it sure looks different then that old one I had.

psst XZodia, if you could update the bitm tag as well while your at it:

Code: Select all

    <int name="LOD1 Offset" offset="28" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD2 Offset" offset="32" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD3 Offset" offset="36" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD4 Offset" offset="40" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD5 Offset" offset="44" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD6 Offset" offset="48" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD1 Size" offset="52" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD2 Size" offset="56" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD3 Size" offset="60" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD4 Size" offset="64" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD5 Size" offset="68" visible="True" />
    <int name="LOD6 Size" offset="72" visible="True" />

Entity...
No body uses Dothalo.

snif-snif
i use dot halo...

Does entity do everything that dot halo does? I haven't really played around with entity. tried to stick with stuff I knew how to use.

Yes, and entity does MUCH more than DotHalo, szorry but DotHalo now sucks, and please don't bump old topics.

dothalo could do more but people stopped working on it so entity just took over.

The biggest thing entity has is bsp viewing and chunk cloning, and the fact that you can copy things form map to map without corrupting existing sounds.
