Rob Janes Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 **Hey Guys,**It's been a while since I've posted anything on here for tutorials, and I probably won't post many, as it appears my work gets used or used as a basis a lot and I'm not credited, but I figure this would be useful to people out there looking to make a game, who may not have a lot of VB experience. Download link at bottom of post.**What is it?**It's Crystalshire: Developer's Edition, with some minor modifications.**What Modifications?**Good question, while there are no new ground-breaking features added, you can modifying several things to make the game feel unique and not like a 'clone' of other games made with Eclipse or CS:DE.**Editing your Interface**You can edit your Interface without needing to compile a new client by editing the client\data files\interface.ini file.```[GUI_CHAT]X=10Y=445Width=412Height=145[GUI_HOTBAR]X=300Y=10Height=36[GUI_MENU]X=558Y=514Width=232Height=76```**Edit the Starting Tutorial**You can edit the Starting Tutorial when a new account is created by editing the client\data files\tutorial.ini file. You can change ShowTutorial from 1 (Enabled) to 0 (Disabled) to choose if you want the starting tutorial to be displayed. You may also change all of the tutorial scripts and answers without compiling a new client.```[INIT]ShowTutorial=1[TUTORIAL1] Text=Ah, so you have appeared at last my dear. Please, listen to what I have to say.Answer=*sigh* I suppose I should...```**Editing Custom Messages**You can edit all in-game messages such as the 'Server Offline', 'Loading' and 'Connected' messages by editing the client\data files\messages.ini file```[MESSAGES]Loading_Interfaces=Loading Interface...Loading_Options=Loading Options...```If anyone has any other requests, post a reply, I'll see what I can do.Download Herehttp://www.splatteredgame.com/CrystalshireDESamu.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquelinett Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 nice Samu game. But… it still hard if you want to make a new gui. Why dont you make a tutorial for how to make a new gui instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Janes Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 Making a new UI is simple, you change the client\data files\graphics\gui images to suit your needs. Then change the data in client\data files\interface.ini to suit your needs. /End Tutorial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquelinett Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 lol lol lol no. You misunderstood me :P What i mean is if you made a guild system and you add a button, you would need to edit the source right? You need to edit the source to make a button.The tutorial should be:1\. look in modconstant to change the max_button2\. look in moddirectx3\. look in many many more place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beanie93 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Does that show up when you try to run the client, or when you connect? Simply showing a screenshot won't help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
