Danmakufu Q&A/Problem thread number 4

[Naut]

You're following instructions on how to install it on Windows 7. Just double click apploc.msi to install it on Windows XP, don't bother moving it around or anything like that.

[Helepolis]

Do people even read the FAQ thread I wonder. As Applocal thing is like extremely frequently asked.

Like Naut said, stop fooling around with the msi and just install it. XP does not have any UAC-like protection. Unless you are on a computer with administrator restrictions, but I highly doubt that.

I made a very simple danmakufu script using CreateLaser01 and CreateShot01.
Was wondering how to manage "SetText" and "#BGM"
Here is my script.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#TouhouDanmakufu
#Title [Christmas Sign "The Tree and the Ornament"]
#Text [Test Script]
#ScriptVersion [2]

script_enemy_main {
    let imgBoss = "script\img\ExRumia.png";
    let angle = 90;
    let frame = 0;
    @Initialize {
        SetX(GetCenterX);
        SetY(GetClipMinY + 120);
        SetLife(5000);

        LoadGraphic(imgBoss);
        SetTexture(imgBoss);
        SetGraphicRect(0, 0, 63, 63);
    }

    @MainLoop {
        SetCollisionA(GetX, GetY, 24);
        SetCollisionB(GetX, GetY, 24);

        frame++;
        if (frame == 5) {
            CreateLaser01(GetX, GetY, 2, GetAngleToPlayer, 200, 16, GREEN01, 20);
            CreateShot01(GetX, GetY, 1, angle, RED04, 0);
            angle += 2;
            frame = 0;
        }
    }

    @DrawLoop {
        DrawGraphic(GetX, GetY);
    }

    @Finalize {
        DeleteGraphic(imgBoss);
    }
}

Pls help
(I would Appriciate those who would try to help)

Was wondering how to manage "SetText" and "#BGM"

#BGM goes in the top of your script along with all the other lines that begin with #, in it's bracket you specify the path directory of your background music. If your background music is in the same directory as your script and is called bgm.mp3, it would look like this:

#BGM[.\bgm.mp3]



What do you mean by SetText? DrawText?

DrawText("text goes here", x, y, size, alpha); draws a text string at the x and y coordinates you specify, with the size and transparency you give it (12 is a nice average size for text, and 255 alpha means the text is completely solid, 0 alpha means it's completely invisible). DrawText must be put in @DrawLoop.

[touhouplayer]

@Naut:
The #BGM dosen't work.
and forget what i said about SetText...

The Title of the danmaku is what im talking about...(e.g. Impossible Request "Rainbow Danmaku")

[Chronojet ⚙ Dragon]

PASTEBIN

What is it about the #BGM? Is the music not playing? There a big pause before the script starts?

[Kylesky]

I'm not so sure, but you might have to add quotation marks to the bgm path...

also, for the spell card title, just use the CutIn function:

CutIn(*insert KOUMA or YOUMU*, *insert spell card name as a string*, *insert path to cutin image, leave as 0 if no image*, *insert left, top, right, bottom coordinates of cutin image, leave as 0 if none*);

[touhouplayer]

@Mewkyuu:
There isn't a big stop...
It's just that when i play the script, there are no sounds...

@Kylesky
I tried to put
 CutIn(YOUMU,"Christmas Sign"\""Tree and Ornament"\",0,0,200,600);
all i get when i play it is a window saying:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Error                                                                                                                              |
CutIn,(17s-U)                                                                                                              |

Check the names and file extensions of your files. They should also be in the right folder.

That shouldn't happen.

[touhouplayer]

Here is a picture to the  one where i failed in putting the title of spellcard.
(I Tried again, and slightly different but still error.)

Yes it should happen, you're missing a parameter.

CutIn(TYPE,"name","image",L,T,R,B);

[Atfyntify]

I actually did read it but I didn't find the FAQ on what happens when I can't open the installer and was interrupt. it says that the error code is 2755.

[touhouplayer]

CutIn(TYPE,"name","image",L,T,R,B);

Thanks. It Worked!
And now, i got the bgm working!

For some reason, danmakufu crashes after the dialogue when I run this script. There is no trouble with the event itself because if I comment it out then it just crashes instantly instead. What could be wrong?

Code: [Select]

script_enemy_main {
//General Variables
    let BossImage = GetCurrentScriptDirectory~"Remilia Scarlet Sprite.png";
let BossStill = [0, 0, 64, 64];
let BossMove = [64, 64, 128, 128];
let BossMusic = GetCurrentScriptDirectory~"BGM_Remilia";

    @Initialize {
        LoadGraphic(BossImage);
LoadMusic(BossMusic);
        SetLife(1);
        SetDamageRate(0, 0);
        MagicCircle(false);
        SetEnemyMarker(true);
CreateEventFromScript("Talk");
    }

    @MainLoop {
        SetCollisionA(GetX, GetY, 24);
if(GetEventStep==1){
PlayMusic(BossMusic);
}
if(OnEvent==false){
SetLife(0);
}
yield;
    }

    @DrawLoop {
DrawText("Boss Name", 36, 30, 12, 225);
if(GetSpeedX>=1){
SetTexture(BossImage);
SetGraphicAngle(0, 0, 0);
SetGraphicRect(BossMove[0], BossMove[1], BossMove[2], BossMove[3]);
DrawGraphic(GetX, GetY);
}else if(GetSpeedX<=-1){
SetTexture(BossImage);
SetGraphicAngle(180, 0, 0);
SetGraphicRect(BossMove[0], BossMove[1], BossMove[2], BossMove[3]);
DrawGraphic(GetX, GetY);
}else{
SetTexture(BossImage);
SetGraphicAngle(0, 0, 0);
SetGraphicRect(BossStill[0], BossStill[1], BossStill[2], BossStill[3]);
DrawGraphic(GetX, GetY);
}
    }

    @Finalize {
       DeleteGraphic(BossImage);
    }
}

script_event Talk{
//General Variables
let CharGraphic = GetCurrentScriptDirectory~"0.png";
let BossGraphic = GetCurrentScriptDirectory~"Remilia Scarlet.png";

@Initialize{
LoadGraphic(CharGraphic);
LoadGraphic(BossGraphic);
}

@MainLoop{
SetChar(LEFT, CharGraphic);
SetGraphicRect(LEFT, 0, 0, 256, 512);
MoveChar(LEFT, BACK);
SetChar(RIGHT, BossGraphic);
SetGraphicRect(RIGHT, 0, 0, 256, 512);
MoveChar(RIGHT, BACK);
TextOutA("You won!");
SetStep(1);
End;
}

@Finalize{
DeleteGraphic(CharGraphic);
DeleteGraphic(BossGraphic);
}
}
PS. Never mind the dialogue, it's just a test.

[Atfyntify]

hey err....guys  recently started my own script and I don't know stuff so I just made a test on the background and I FAIL :fail:. all my projects are easy and FAIL with errors. I have 2 projects too but they're also with errors so here's my test:

Code: [Select]

#TouhouDanmakufu
#Title[BG test]
#Text[testing the background abilitie in danmakufu]
#Player[FREE]
#ScriptVersion[2]

script_enemy_main{

        let CSD =  GetCurrentScriptDirctory;

        let bg = CSD ~ "bg\hakureishrine.png";

        @Initialize{
              SetLife(1000)
              SetMovePosition01(GetCenterX,GetCenterY,5);

              mainTask;

        }

        @MainLoop{

        }

        @DrawLoop{

        }

        @Background{
               SetTexture(bg);
               SetRenderState(ALPHA);
               SetAlpha(255);
               SetGraphicRect(0,0,832,539);
               SetGraphicScale(1,1);
               SetGraphicAngle(0,0,0)
               DrawGraphic(GetCenterX,GetCenterY);

        }

        @Finalize{

        }

}
And I kept getting this error:

[JmLyan]

You misspelled directory. Fix that and it will probably work.

[Atfyntify]

I did correct directory but for some what reason hakureishrine.png keeps getting errors.

[TheMasterSpark]

Does it generate an actual error message or does it just not show up at all? You seem to have left out your LoadGraphic(bg), which means that your background image won't ever exist in DNF's memory. Add it in your @Initialize to set things right.

[Stuffman]

JmLyan - This has me completely stumped, it won't stop crashing no matter what I comment out

Anyone else want to take a look at this?

[JmLyan]

You have forgotten a semicolon after SetLife(1000).

OH! darn it. I always forget semicolons. *_*

Also:

[TheMasterSpark]

Is there actually a task named mainTask? Please use Pastebin to show us your entire code.

[JmLyan]

Now you forgot the semicolon on SetGraphicAngle.

[TheMasterSpark]

like this? http://pastebin.com/bEMCWKQ6

Yup, just like that. You're calling for the task mainTask to start in your @Initialize, but there's actually nothing named mainTask in your script.

That's an error, mate.  :3

thanks. but anyway the hakureishrine.png isn't appearing at all! also I didn't put SetTimer(60) you can download my epic FAIL script at: http://bulletforge.org/u/atfyntify/p/one-epic-bg-fail-test/v/1

[JmLyan]

@BackGround only functions in either stage scripts or spellcards.

[TheMasterSpark]

Two things:

First, you need to make the G capital in @BackGround. Second, you must put a SetScore(*some number here*) statement in your @Initialize. Like Jm said just now, what you draw in @BackGround doesn't work in non-spellcard attacks - SetScore turns your script into a spellcard attack.
