Inferno is Back

hey guys

Hope you all had a good break. I finished rebuilding the inferno infrastructure and it is ready to be fill with objects. The dark woods still need some touch ups, but i should have that done at the end of the week. I am also working on purgatory right now and it should be done shortly.

Menu Script

Here's my script for a menu where you can choose to receive a notecard or goto a webpage. Make sure when you put it in an object you place the notecard you want to dispense inside the object also. Thanks for the help ben


// when touched, present two menu choices to give notecard and load URL

integer CHANNEL = 42; // dialog channel

list MENU_MAIN = ["Website", "Notecard"]; // the main menu

key id;

default {

state_entry() {

llListen(CHANNEL, "", NULL_KEY, ""); // listen for dialog answers (from multiple users)

}

touch_start(integer total_number)

{

id = llDetectedKey(0);

llDialog(id, "What do you want to do?", MENU_MAIN, CHANNEL); // present dialog on click

}

listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message)

{

if (message == "Website")

llLoadURL(id, "", "http://si.ist.psu.edu/neodante"); //load webpage

else if (message == "Notecard")

llGiveInventory(id, "Info"); //give notecard

}

}

Models

i made a few more models. A fat model and a skinny model.

Fog Script

Dan - here is the fog script. Its a simple particle script, you can modify the color, if it bounces off the z-plane, effected by wind or have it follow different objects or avatars


// Particle Script

integer glow = TRUE; // Make the particles glow
integer bounce = TRUE; // Make particles bounce on Z plan of object
integer interpColor = TRUE; // Go from start to end color
integer interpSize = TRUE; // Go from start to end size
integer wind = FALSE; // Particles effected by wind
integer followSource = TRUE; // Particles follow the source
integer followVel = TRUE; // Particles turn to velocity direction

// Choose pattern:
// PSYS_SRC_PATTERN_EXPLODE
// PSYS_SRC_PATTERN_DROP
// PSYS_SRC_PATTERN_ANGLE_CONE_EMPTY
// PSYS_SRC_PATTERN_ANGLE_CONE
// PSYS_SRC_PATTERN_ANGLE
integer pattern = PSYS_SRC_PATTERN_ANGLE_CONE;

// Select a target for particles to go towards
// "" for nothing, "owner" for creator, "self" for host object

key target = "self";

// Particle paramaters
float age = 8; // Life of each particle
float maxSpeed = 1; // Max speed each particle is spit out at
float minSpeed = 1; // Min speed each particle is spit out at
string texture; // Texture used for particles, default used if blank
float startAlpha = 0.2; // Start alpha (transparency) value
float endAlpha = 0.3; // End alpha (transparency) value
vector startColor = <7,25,34.45>; // Start color of particles
vector endColor = <1,252,34.4>; // End color of particles (if interpColor == TRUE)
vector startSize = <1.0,1.0,1.0>; // Start size of particles
vector endSize = <1.0,1.0,1.0>; // End size of particles (if interpSize == TRUE)
vector push = <0,0,-1>; // Force pushed on particles

// System paramaters
float rate = .1; // How fast (rate) to emit particles
float radius = .9; // Radius to emit particles for BURST pattern
integer count = 500; // How many particles to emit per BURST
float outerAngle = 2.0; // Outer angle for all ANGLE patterns
float innerAngle = 2.0; // Inner angle for all ANGLE patterns
vector omega = <1,2,3>; // Rotation of ANGLE patterns around the source
float life = 0; // Life in seconds for the system to make particles

// Script variables
integer flags;

updateParticles()
{
if (target == "owner") target = llGetOwner();
if (target == "self") target = llGetKey();
if (glow) flags = flags | PSYS_PART_EMISSIVE_MASK;

Interesting script problem

Hi all,

Ben and I are trying to figure out a script problem that
could be indicitive of a deeper problem.

If you go to the reception room for Inferno, you will
see a picture of Sandro Boticelli. If you touch
the picture a loadURL message comes up and if you
select OK you get a web page with info on Botticelli.

So far so good. Here is the simple script:

string SiteName = "  " ;
 //Change this to meet your needs.
string SiteURL = "http://si.ist.psu.edu/neodante/afterlife/inferno/sandro-botticelli-1444-1510/";
 //Change this to meet your needs.

default
{
    state_entry() 
    { 
         llSetText(SiteName,<0,1,1>,2); 
    }

    
    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llLoadURL(llDetectedKey(0), SiteName, SiteURL);
    }

}

Now - I copied my Botticelli picture, and put a copy in
the reception room of Purgatorio.

But now the script does not work! Same exact script!

I then create a new object - paste the script there -
it compiles successfully -- same problem (no message, no
web browser window, no nothing!)

So, again on the new object, I whittle down the
script to the following simplest possible script:

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llSay(0, "Hello, Avatar!");
    }

   touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llLoadURL(llDetectedKey(0), "fred", "http://www.psu.edu");
    }
}

Still no work!

Thoughts? Both Ben and I worked on this but could not
find any solution.

floating text script

string SiteName = "Blaw-Knox Steel Mill" ;
 //Change this to meet your needs.

default
{
    state_entry() 
    { 
         llSetText(SiteName,<0,1,1>,2); 
    }
}

open url script

string SiteName = "  " ;
 //Change this to meet your needs.
string SiteURL = "http://www.psu.edu.";
 //Change this to meet your needs.

default
{
    state_entry() 
    { 
         llSetText(SiteName,<0,1,1>,2); 
    }
 
    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {
        llLoadURL(llDetectedKey(0), SiteName, SiteURL);
    }
}
