Tutorial Request

[_Z3phyr_]

I will lovelongtime and give a prize/cookie to whosoever makes a tutorial and/or links me to a tutorial about using particle effects in ganis so that their output can be seen on the serverside.

I am aware that its just NPCSTART ... NPCEND or something like that and it goes somewhere in the gani text, however whenever I've tried it in the past, it doesn't work for beans... so yeah I'm doing something wrong and need to be instructed on how to do it.

Thanks ahead of time,

Actually, it's

SCRIPT

//wow a script

SCRIPTEND

[_Z3phyr_]

Is there any special place it has to go in the gani text file?

[Chompy]

its can be like:

GANI0001
SPRITE    0         SPRITES   24    0   16    8 sprite

SINGLEDIRECTION
DEFAULTHEAD head0.png
DEFAULTBODY body.png

SCRIPT
function onCreated()
{
  showtext(2, x, y, "Arial," b", params[0]);
  changeimgvis(2, 3);
  changeimgzoom(2, 0.95);
  changeimgcolors(2, 1, 1, 1, 0.99);
  sleep(0.1);
  hideimg(2);
}
SCRIPTEND

ANI
ANIEND

and can be showed with like:

PHP Code:

showani(Index, x, y, 0, "GANI NAME HERE", param0, param1, etc..);
or
setani("Gani name", params);

Another thing you might want to know, is, that all script is clientsided in ganis. So even if you dotn add a //#CLIENTSIDE - its clientsided.

I am not complaining about the quality of the current editor at all. All I wish is that someone would update the commands.rtf to include GS2, or release a GS2 version.

There have been so many changes, I can never find the syntax for what I want to do anymore. -.-

Osht, I just had an idea for the commands.rtf!

I'm on it right now!
