coffeeraptor Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 So I totally thought this was going to be a thing I could do in a couple programming sessions and ended up just lost. Basically, I want to add faces (images) into the text area of an event page (for NPCs, etc). I'm using Skywyre engine. I'm essentially looking to do something similar to how EO 4.3.4 handles adding faces (A button on ShowText to select a Face image\That image shows up off to the left of the text)I've searched the forums for a while on this topic for tutorials, and I haven't come across one. Also looked into the other Dx8 engines for reference and found none of them did this. Is it even possible? I couldn't open EO 4.3.4 in VB6 to look through how it is handled on that engine.Not looking for a full tutorial (unless one exists) - Just a general is it possible question at this point. I'm a mere journeyman programmer so this is something I'd gladly pay someone to implement down the line if it's a big endeavor.Thanks as always, guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Growlith1223 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Add picturebox to event box(unless it's being rendered then just call a renderTexture), create a sub to draw this, D3ddevice8.Present(0, picturebox.Handle, ByVal 0)It's not really that difficult to do really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeeraptor Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 That does sound like it'd be worth my time to explore on my own. Thank you so much. I think I just got overwhelmed the first time I took a look at it because I thought I was going to go about it a different way and when that didn't happen, I just started looking for tutorials. Will give it another go - thanks for giving me a place to launch from! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
