Title: Cellwall As Orb With Different Texture
Post by: GamerMage on May 23, 2004, 11:02:00 AM

(Borrowed with changes from neo-dilly)

CellWall as Orb with different textures

If you dont like the orb image you can use your cell wall as a orb...

to do this open mainmenu.lua in your Skins/xdash folder

find


CODE  
loadmesh("xsphere", "SKINS:\\xdash\\mainmenu\\xsphere.xbg")



and at the front of the line it is on add


CODE  
--(space bar)

what this does is comment out the loadmesh (orb mesh) code

After that add this after it

CODE  
loadmesh("innersphere", "SKINS:\\xdash\\mainmenu\\innersphere.xbg")

This loads the new model you will be making later


then find

renderobject("xsphere", 1, -15, 0.95, 3, 0, -PI/18, 0, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5)

and comment it out by putting this before it


CODE  
--(space bar)



underneath that make a new line and paste this


CODE  
renderobject("innersphere", 3, -25, 0, 31, PI/2, BackRotation*20, 0, 0.4, 0.4, 0.4)



the "BackRotation*20" is the way it rotates and currently i havent found other ways to rotate but to change speed change the "20" to another number

Now to make you new model
open outersphere.xbg in a hex editor and rename the outersphere.bmp entry on the text side to innersphere.bmp then save as innersphere.xbg

now make a new texture using outersphere.bmp as a model and place both the innersphere.xbg and innersphere.bmp in the xdash folder

now your done enjoy
this will give you a cellwall orb mesh instead of the orb texture

such as the "storagebox"  or "storageitem"

GamerMage,

To change the Storage Box:

Alter the last four values to change the colour etc...

Value1-->75 Do NOT Change.
Value 2(255)-->Alpha,
value 3(90)-->R,
Value 4(128)-->G,
Value 5(199)-->B

setrenderstateargb(75, 255, 90, 128, 199)
setrenderstate(147, 2304)
renderobject("storagebox", 0, 4.5, 3, 6, 0, 0, 0, 0.22, 0.22, 0.10)


Storage Item:
find:
if i~=TargetItem then
      setrenderstateargb(75, 255, 0, 97, 255)
      else
      setrenderstateargb(75, 255, 0, 93, 199)
      end
      renderobject("storageitem", 1, 4.5, itemy, 6, 0, 0, 0, 0.22, 0.22, 0.15)

alter the renderstateargb values as described abouve to change all the settings for the opacity and colour.

Hope that helps you.
