Thanks! Took a look at your Altis Life server after seeing it's ranked no 1 . Some impressive UIs in there! Unfortunately, I couldn't understand a lot of it because I don't speak German, but I could tell the basics of what most of it does and is very cool.

Thank you very much, we worked a long time on that. Yeah maybe we will do some english translations in the future ;)

Excellent tutorial -- I really appreciate that you explained how the code works in plain English.  Customizing mine now.  As-is it works in game as a mission -- even the vehicles from my mod are available -- and it works great.  I want to activate it instead of from the player to an in-game object.  I added the following to a custom character:

class UserActions
{
	class Action_TalkToStorekeeper
	{
		displayName = "Talk to Storekeeper";
		position = GunBreech_Bess;
		priority = 0.3;
		radius = 2.0;
		onlyForPlayer = true;
		condition = (Alive(this));
		statement = ([this, 'Vehicle Selector'] call TUT_fnc_OpenVehUI);
	};	
};	

-- I want to move the GUI from a mission to my mod, so I can add this storekeeper to any mission without having to transfer the GUI files.  So far I moved the mission folder to my mod, renamed it ART_GUI, and wrote a config that looks like this:


//onLoadName = "Vehicle Selector";
//author = "Soolie";
//onLoadMission="Tutorial";

class CfgPatches
{
	class ART_GUI
	{
		units[] = {};
		weapons[] = {};
		requiredVersion = 0.1;
		requiredAddons[] = {};
	};
};

#include "dialog\Common.hpp"
#include "dialog\TUT_gui_veh.hpp"

class RscTitles
{
#include "dialog\TUT_gui_veh.hpp"
};

I've also commented out everything in the init.sqf except

_vehDialog = [] spawn compile PreprocessFileLineNumbers "dialog\TUT_fnc_veh.sqf";
waitUntil {scriptDone _vehDialog};

While running it through pboProject I had to add a couple of missing semicolons in TUT_gui_veh.hpp  (one at line 134 and the other was nearby).  Also had an error in common.hpp at the last line   default = true;   the error message said " Line 1670 true and false do not exist"

 

I know I'll need to get the init.sqf to run to preprocess the functions, but I don't know what to do beyond what I have already.

The only question I have is:

 

Where do I get the base classes I need to make the GUI's outputted by the in-game editor actually work? Can I export them from that editor or do I need to do them by hand? Or is there just a generic file I could include? All these tutorials tell you to include the base classes; they never explain how to get them for your own purposes or edit them from their examples.

Here's a good link for that

I don't believe it has all of the classes that you might use, but it should have most. After you've had a bit more experience with everything you'll be able to start customizing it to your liking and then just transfer those classes between projects.

You can start with the one from the mission template dl in the first post(forgot where i got it but have been adding to it for a while). And like spyder said you can keep customizing as you get more experienced with it. 

 

Excellent tutorial -- I really appreciate that you explained how the code works in plain English.  Customizing mine now.  As-is it works in game as a mission -- even the vehicles from my mod are available -- and it works great.  I want to activate it instead of from the player to an in-game object.  I added the following to a custom character:

That at the top of common should fix the true error.
#define true 1
#define false 0

Not too sure about adding UIs into mods but I will try to find out. Hopefully someone else who knows sees in the meantime.

That did fix it, now it runs through pboProject, but when loading the game I get the error:  No entry 'bin\config.bin/RscDisplayMain/controls/ButtonPlay.TexturenoShortCut'.  Oddly the warning dialog has no Okay or Cancel button like it usually does, so I have to exit game with ctrl alt del.

Im guessing in your dialog you have a "Button play", in there you either have texturenoshortcut defined and it shouldn't be or it should be and you dont have it

textureNoShortcut = "#(argb,8,8,3)color(0,0,0,0)";

It is unmodified other than what I outlined above.  Im guessing that since I havent called the preprocess stuff (no idea how yet) that it hasnt read those things, not sure.

Ahh didnt notice is said RscDisplayMain I think this is referring to the Play button on the main screen. I think somehow it's overwriting what's in game but really, I have no idea what's doing it. Like I said, not really sure about adding dialogs to the whole mod. Only ever used them in mission files.

Added common.hpp to the first post. Please let me know if you notice anything not in there.

Also, if anyone has a working RscTree they are willing to share(including fncs pls) It would be greatly appreciated :)

I have a weird issue trying to display RscActiveText 

 

which is .paa image (58kb) I know for a fact it worked fine on arma 2 servers before, and I am able to view the image in TexView 2 just fine. however in the gui it is transparent  will not show at all. but if i try another file normal .jpg (16KB) it works just fine. so I know its not the my script or configuration file. When i convert the .paa to .jpg as a test it becomes 56kb in size, and I can view it in windows just fine. However using that crashes my arma application all together. Any ideas why this would be an issue? I thought Arma handled .paa better and if it is size thing why would it work perfectly fine on arma 2 not in arma 3? is there something i should change in your defines.hpp file for RscActiveText?

 

soolie here is what that image looks like, this is what i mean by its transparent, click here . It is on top of class controlsBackground which is also .paa but that works fine.

@soolie I've been referring to your simplistic but creative vehicle spawning GUI. I have created my own, once I understood what I am doing it was incredibly simplistic, time to move to the more advanced GUI's!

I have created a GUI, on the click of a button, I would like a child GUI to appear but then the parent disapears. I would like to keep the parent GUI displayed if possible.

My first thought was I could just copy the Parent GUI into the child gui, so when I click the button it essentially brings up both of the GUIs at the same time.

Surely there has to be an easier way, I have tried playing around with createdialog & createdisplay, could you advise any quick tips?
