Xaron Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 Hi, how do you guys create a GUI with the game (menus, options etc). Are there any plans to add some GUI stuff into LE? Quote Triassic Games
franck22000 Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 Hi Xaron, you can manage to get the CEGUI library working in LE, there is a tutorial here: http://leadwerks.com/werkspace/index.php?/page/resources/_/programming/cpp/leadwerks-and-cegui-r30 Have fun Quote You guys are going to be the death of me.

Laurens Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 If you need any help setting up CEGUI then don't hesitate to ask! Cheers! Quote
AggrorJorn Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 LE already comes with a GUI made with Lua. You can find it in the sdk folder\scripts\GUI Quote
Xaron Posted July 12, 2010 Author Posted July 12, 2010 Thanks for the help. CEGUI might be a bit of an overkill, will look into this LUA stuff even though I don't use LUA (and won't use it). Quote Triassic Games
Laurens Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 That's what was my big objection to the GUI that shipped with the engine. I feel it should have been part of the main engine and not in LUA which I think is hacky enough as it is (classes, ugh!). Anyway, if you think CEGUI is an overkill you always ask for Roland Stralberg and klepto for advice. If I recall correctly they both implemented a GUI using only LE commands. Cheers! Quote
TylerH Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 I did a full UI way back in the day... http://forum.leadwerks.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3381&start=0&hilit=phoenix+open+source It is basically a C# library that provides you with about everything the Source Engine had in terms of user interface. But it is so outdated, you would be better off utilizing the CEGUI tutorial, or even the CEGUI implementation posted in my Jeklynn Heights code thread.

AggrorJorn Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 I am still working on LuaGui, but if you want to create a basic menu, then give LuaGui a try. http://leadwerks.com/werkspace/index.php?/topic/2343-luagui/ Quote
