(Solved) Health Bar "Aggror Script" for Leadwerks 4.0

[Defranco]

Hey,

 

I've been trying to adapt as much scripts as possible to work with the 4.0 version, and I've come across some issues with the Health Bar script,

 

The color function doesn't work. The bars stay black.

 

Script.offset = Vec2(0,0) --Vec2 "Offset"
Script.size = Vec2(160, 25) --Vec2 "Size"
Script.backgroundColor = Vec4() --color "Background color"
Script.healthbarColor = Vec4() --color "HealthBar color"
Script.overlayPath = "" -- path "Overlay" "Tex file (*tex):tex"
Script.overlay = nil
Script.player = nil
Script.backgroundColorFractioned = nil
Script.healthbarColorFractioned = nil

function Script:Start()
self.player = self.entity:GetParent()
if self.overlayPath ~= "" then
self.overlay = Texture:Load(self.overlayPath)
end


--background
local c = self.backgroundColor
self.backgroundColorFractioned = Vec4(c.x/255, c.y/255, c.z/255, c.w/255)

c = self.healthbarColor
self.healthbarColorFractioned = Vec4(c.x/255, c.y/255, c.z/255, c.w/255)
end


function Script:PostRender(context)
-- Background
context:SetColor(self.backgroundColorFractioned)
context:DrawRect(self.offset.x, context:GetHeight() - self.offset.y, self.size.x, self.size.y)

-- Healthbar
context:SetColor(self.healthbarColorFractioned)
local healthFactor = self.player.script.health / self.player.script.maxHealth
context:DrawRect(self.offset.x,context:GetHeight() - self.offset.y, self.size.x * healthFactor, self.size.y)


--Draw overlay
if self.overlay ~= nil then
context:SetBlendMode(Blend.Alpha)
context:SetColor(1,1,1,1)
context:DrawImage(self.overlay, 0, context:GetHeight() - self.overlay:GetHeight())
context:SetBlendMode(Blend.Solid)
end
end

Hi Erika,

 

Leadwerks changed the API quite a while ago for the color settings. Colors no longer have to be divided by 255 in order for them to be processed correctly by Leadwerks.

 

so this:

self.backgroundColorFractioned = Vec4(c.x/255, c.y/255, c.z/255, c.w/255)

 

becomes:

self.backgroundColorFractioned = Vec4(c.x, c.y, c.z, c.w)

Worked excellent, thank you, highly respect the video tutorials you've done on youtube, I hope to see many more!

 

I'm just getting back into it, its been over a year since 3.1 / 3.2 was out that I last made anything.

No problem. I have been absent from Leadwerks for a while as well, so things like this are good to catch up to.

There is a same problem with FlowGui the text colours are all back now. Any chance of an update

Aggror ... WELCOME back It seems like every time any of us leaves for doing something else we come back as drug addicts. The Leadwerks Engine perhaps should be classified as a drug
