looking for intro/demo engine and plugins coder(s)
Hi,
I started an experimental project to make a new tool for creating oldschool demos and intros in a windowed editor GUI. I would like to see if there is any interest. The project is split into four things: a) the editor b) the replay engine c) the effect plugins d) effect specific GUI pieces for effect parameters Here is a screenshot how the editor looks so far. The top row of buttons will be replaced with toolbar icons if someone could supply or create them. The black box is a tooltip. The colorful icons on the left side of the tracks illustrate the type of the track, which can be further set up by clicking on them. I will use better images if someone can make them. Here is a proposal for how the thing might work:
For a first step into the right direction I suggest to make a mod replay effect (or The Player) and/or a simple scrolltext, and develop the editor so far that the main GUI and the effect-GUI can communicate when creating the blocks of data for the effect plugins. And make the engine able to replay these effects. The API in detail needs some further development and there are still some other questions open. Note: The GUI uses my own custom library, so we are not limited to elements supported by intuition. In fact the „tracks“ view is a class. If you want some demonstrations of the GUI lib then please follow the „XoXo“ link in my signature. Last edited by AGS; 21 November 2015 at 14:42. |
