Post by: kNoC on March 14, 2006, 10:00:30 AM
- Add Color To Menus (Still Thinking About That)

- Changing Build16 To Build16K (Like In Console & Main Menu)

- Different Background In Main Menu

- Sound Tracks Of Your Choice (Just Ones That Play, Just Drag Your Music Into The Desinated Folder), The Audio Format Is Not Yet Decided, Which Ever Is The Easiest, Sorry

- Fix The Display Messages (Like When You Set It To "Only Eliminations" It Only Shows Eliminations)

- Scoreboard Spacing And Alingment (The C And Time Arent Spaced, Will Space And Then Align The Columns Apropriately)

well all that stuff really isnt necessary ;p,  changed Options to Optionz lol. I think someone should make an mp3 player that you can use within the game tho.

yeah thats some dumb excrement i did, but the color to the join team is kinda fly, and my memberz button, the rest is just dumb excrement i did, i took out alot of the dumb excrement and tried to keep it as plain as possible...
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: kNoC on March 14, 2006, 04:06:03 PM
the whole sound track thing im talkin about, theres 2 ways im thinking of, well the easiest way, is to have the songs (mp3/wav, watever) play at the start of every round and end at the end of  the round, so there is no need for a menu in that scenario, and you could have a folder where you can drag your music into it;

the other way is to set up a menu and basically have the same set-up just you can play and stop pause them whenever you feel like;

now i could possibly do that once i figure out how the other paintball sounds are executed cuss im sure you could do the same thing with the songs, just be a little different, but im focusing on this more;

every other day im just toying around with paintball while im at school, because pc's are faster there, and me and twistdid have like 2 hours there so we have plenty of time to mess around with it, but yeah if there is anything that some1 wants done, as long as its fairly simple, seeing is how im not a "programmer" i might be able to help you out, but indeed there should be some kind of SoundTracks or (Trax) as  i was calling them earleir today when i tried and failed at it.

 :P yea this music thing we are making isnt very easy, but as soon as we find out how the other sound files are executed then i will have it done in minutes lol but its gonna take awhile to find out how they are executed. hey jitspoe if you see this can you maybe fill me in on how they are executed yea that would be a big help thanx.     
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: jitspoe on March 14, 2006, 07:24:52 PM
The easiest thing to do would be to use the "play" command, as this can be executed straight from the menus.  Sounds have to be in the .wav format.
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: twistdid on March 14, 2006, 07:39:37 PM
play command?????? please elaborate, do you mean the play command as in play demo or as in play(start server) i have no clue please help
Title: Re: My Tweaks

play

Type: Function

Syntax: play (filename)

Description: Play a sound file.

Note: This command adds a sound/ prefix directory when executed, just keep this in mind when playing your own sound files.

Example:
play doors/dr1_strt.wav
play items/n_health.wav

Sounds have to be in the .wav format.

They also have to be in the sound subdirectory.
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: lekky on March 14, 2006, 09:09:59 PM
well according to what jits said.

that would mean your mp3 would be in sound/music/riding_dirty.mp3  (maybe...)

but it looks like you have your mp3 in music/riding_dirty.mp3

could be wrong there...

also another thing. does it support mp3's, and not just wmv's..?


EDIT: yeah jits beat me to it..
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: kNoC on March 14, 2006, 09:35:35 PM
they have to be .wav not .mp3, so use nero or sumden to convert them to the highest quality you can make, theyll still sound good..
Title: Re: My Tweaks

eek hmm we will find out how 2 do it right sooner or later. a
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: KnacK on March 15, 2006, 12:21:41 PM
I believe that sounds are in 8 or 16 bit mono
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: jitspoe on March 15, 2006, 02:15:45 PM
Yeah, unfortunately it only supports mono sounds right now.  It's not really designed to handle music (though I think you can use music CD's with it, but I forget the settings).

Someone said earlier, " Different Themes ", well me and twistdid kinda already have one, like you seen his red letters and what not, well i have the same thing but mines blue and every other misc. junk is either green or yellow, so we have a blue and green theme now, if thats what you want to call it, i can make them other colors, but fading them would take to long, ill tech you how  but i will not do them, future colors will conist of:
=================================
Green
Yellow
Black
Grey
=================================
-And maybe some other colors....-
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: twistdid on March 16, 2006, 08:03:41 AM
i will make the themes for ppl just tell me what u want
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: kNoC on March 16, 2006, 10:24:00 AM
Okay, heres a quick question, in the scores menu, on the evry right the C (Caps) and Time are not spaced.

(I.E. CTime).....I spaced mine out and of course the rows didnt allign correctly ( i expected that) but i couldnt seem to find where the positioning was for the rows....not a BIG deal just when you have 10 caps and been in the game for 25 minutes it looks od

CTime
1025

thats ugly.......but yeah hopefully i directed you to this jits, id like to help do some work on some minor stuff i find, like my display messages post, if i can help in anyway just ask, thanks all who is helping me
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: jitspoe on March 16, 2006, 02:59:39 PM
Well, it's either have the words squished together or have an extra space in the last column.  I chose the former, as that's the way it's always been.  I probably won't mess with this until I redo the GUI system.
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: kNoC on March 16, 2006, 06:11:11 PM
quite alright, if i figure it out, ill post it up....
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: kNoC on March 20, 2006, 04:19:29 PM
i got most o the themes done " blue, light blue, black and 50% done with red " all i need to do now is green and yellow (for now) once again i remind u the "themes" i speak of only change the color in the game so whatever is white (default) would be changed to whatever color i made, these themes may be a tad different on mine than yours because my menus are entirely different than the default ones, because i removed alot of the controls, but if interested i can gladly put what i took out back and and then implement the colors, that hard at all, when i ge them all done, ill just post the pictures up of prolly just the main setup menu, ill keep you informed.

You could just use iTunes to convert it to .wav

Why is it that people have the urge to revive dead threads?
Title: Re: My Tweaks
Post by: Spook on April 08, 2007, 02:13:17 PM
reviving dead threads isn't a problem as long as the person doing it has a good reason to start it up again
