I decided to release version "1" without saving due to the long development time that will be needed to setup saving, so people can use pwlib and learn with it while i go and complete save support.

To do:
-menu animations/effects
-add evidence animation (like pw1 when payne adds the passport)
-guilty/not guilty animation

They are a lot easier than save support. :minuki:

Due to some strange thing, one of my posts isn't showing.
I'm reposting it. (post 79)

So people developing with pwlib, don't be alarmed: once save is incorporated, just updating pwlib will give the save power. With no modification on existing code, too. :uramidn:

Maybe I'm blind, but did you post a link to the release somewhere? O.o

No, he just said he's going to release it without the save support.
But since it's only a few small things, it shouldn't be very far off now.

Like I said, I could easily release pwlib now as is. I'll make a big warning when release is due. :keiko:

Post subject:  Re: PWLib Casemaker

Yay! I'm getting very excited now. I think, as my first project on this, I may figure out how it works and remake cases 1-1 and 1-2, but edited for tutorial purposes somehow. Will there be easy ways to comment within the code? I think I could be pretty could at making beginner-level tutorials/example cases once it comes out, if you're not planning something like that already.

Don't hold me to making them, but there's a chance ;) Especially if I feel it would help the PW fangame scene explode <3

Post subject:  Re: PWLib Casemaker

What'd be fun is finding a way to remake the Manga cases. Granted, they'd be incredibly hard, and you'd have to rework the evidence presentation a bit.

Actually, there's something I thought of with evidence. The Evidence/Profiles thing didn't work out greatly in JFA, and they eventually reduced it in Apollo Justice. But I thought of something else: What if you had Evidence/Testimonies? Just take certain quotes from previous testimonies, and put them in...
"I'm sure I heard two thumps." (Prince of Lawyers reference)
"Y'know, I didn't say it on the stand...but I'm pretty sure I've seen that guy go to the hospital a bunch recently!"
"The Steel Samurai is the mortal enemy of the Evil Magistrate!" (could object a statement like "As the Steel Samurai, I always defeat the Shadow Ninja!")

No, please, don't give him any more ideas! (At least not until there's a first release!)

Anyway, it should be fairly easy to do that with some extra coding...

Post subject:  Re: PWLib Casemaker

Commenting in aige is just using //, like:
//this is a comment.
You can also comment in front of commands and functions.

For "testimony evidence" you can always make a new evidence and such.

I added a method of presenting only evidence or only profile (PW1 and AJ had those modes).

Small update:
I'm working on pwlib's basic tutorials.

PWLib Tutorial 00: Setting Up PWLib
PWLib Tutorial 01: First Talk (Monologue) in PWLib

I've watched all screenshots and the video : it's really impressive ! :edgy:

Now that I think of it, will this work on linux ? Otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to try it, even though I like the idea of scripting trials this way :sadshoe:

Author:  Shinkinrui [ Tue May 06, 2008 6:10 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: PWLib Casemaker

Oh awesome, I was hoping there would be some manner of tutorial :D I especially like that it sounds like it's structured so you start at the most basic and work your way up with lessons. Much easier than just having a long list of commands and routines. Looking very good, sir, very good :will:

About linux, wine runs it. Version 0.9.44 i have on university fails to work with text objects (even though the messagebox uses the same code and doesn't die), but is not that confiable too (even firefox portable dies out of the blue).

I have planned 16 tutorials as of now, as I get home i'll post their names.

Ah, and PWLib version 1 is codename-ed "Hayase".

I'll only able to really work on pwlib tomorrow. I just wrote the two first tutos witch are small. And idealized the rest titles.

The official "book" for PWLib:

I updated the cover. And, yeah, I hate jpg. It sux.

Btw, Zero Ziat, thanks, but I'm not that much of a programmer... hehehe

Sorry if this has been answered before, but will this run on Macs? If not, no worries; I can always boot into Wind0ze. :P

As I know, it won't run on macs unless you get WINE running in it (or windows), since PWLib's graphic engine is based on DirectX.

Programmers always seem like ace programmers to people who don't know how to program. It's the same with most professions. Except for comic strip artists.

Like the cover! Though Phoenix seems to still be jpeg'd. :eh?:

Zero, the sig looks nice, even if KSA is being really humble about it :will:
AJ's edit is also hilarious.

Post subject:  Re: PWLib Casemaker

I just couldn't fix that jpg effect (that hate jpg was due to that, if someone could help me with it), and was the only "facing the camera" pic i found of phoenix.

Wel, if people think i'm an ace programer something similar, I'm happy in every way. It means i'm doing my job good to some extend.

That book will contain official pwlib tutorials and also officially selected tutorials that may appear in the community. I'm planning into making a pdf with index and such too. :minuki:

I appreciate all comments. :keiko:

So, I'm guessing your releasing this AFTER you finish the tutorials?
I'm fine with that, since I know nothing about AIGE. :yogi:

Author:  KSA_Tech [ Wed May 07, 2008 3:30 am ]
Post subject:  Re: PWLib Casemaker

That book will compile the official tutos, so it won't go out initially (need to do menus, etc, and tutos are more important).

As people ask questions i can give directed explanation of aige's special stuff if needed.

Post subject:  Re: PWLib Casemaker

Now that i'm free from the test i had, i can resume working on pwlib.

I just correct the gavel animations (both 1hit and 3hit now play once with correct waiting times).

As WINE in university is crappy, I can't work in anything using the text object (the court record uses them, so do the add new evidence) as I won't be able to enable it and see if it moves accordingly. That leaves the guilty/not guilty that I can start working on.

:maya: :pearl: :minuki:

Edit: won't be able to do the guilty/not guilty on university. linux + crappy image editior (read GIMP). As the image of the Not and Guilty are larger than necessary, i'll need to resize and such, and that crappy program isn't good to do it.

Uhh... GIMP has always worked fine for me when resizing pictures :meekins:
What's the exact problem with it ? I may be able to help you...

PS : telling it's "crappy" is the best way to start a troll, especially when I'm around :will: I will refrain, however, for this topic's sake ^^
