We will also look at hover text function and sending IMs from an object. You should know the basics of scripting (create a script, use the editor, ... look at Simon's classes). If you want to learn about the money event, this class is for you. Class materials provided (including $ and Euro textures) :D Due to login problems on 11/19 this class was postponed. |

Class prepared for January WoL. How do you get a HUD to the screen? How do you build and texture it ... most of all: which side? How does it communicate with the object to be controlled? We will build a simple HUD, texture it and attach it to the screen, then control a door with it. You will learn about the listen event, communication channels, script the touch_start event to use the HUD and also a simple door script that listens to the HUD. You should be able to build, texture and edit a box, understand end edit the default script. That is, where we will start from. Door, scripts, textures provided.

Class prepared for January WoL. While the listen event might be laggy, prims within a build should communicate more directly. We will learn about the way to communicate messages within an object that is linked from several parts (llMessageLinked function and link_message event). Our build will be a shoutbox that can be installed as a HUD and will help you to shout your messages. You should be able to build, texture and edit a box, link objects and understand end edit simple scripts. That is, where we will start from. Example shoutbox, scripts, textures provided.
