I was wondering.. [Archive] - ForumsHQ

Post by Miles »

First off.. I would like to say that NMRv1.4 is f***in awesome :) It has helped my edit jobs in lots of different ways and is always makin things easier.. Thanks Syntax!



Just a few quick questions (perhaps suggestions)..



How hard would it be to add "Death Room #" to the Universal Modifier..?? I have a few expansive areas and was hoping to convenience my users with a HoD that is within the vacinity :)



I love the Quest Organizer - Its Helped a ton. I was thinking another cool addition would be a "Chest Organizer" ... a similiar look with links to all the textblocks, and perhaps a Wizard to help design new chests? Chests in my opinion can create great gameplay and users love the excitement of opening a chest, Especially if something GOOD might be in it for once :)



I know this dosnt have alot to do with NMR, but how would I take snapshots of the MapView? I would like to put some maps up on my website, and I cant figure out how to save those as a .gif. Sorry for the n00b question! Thanks

I believe you can use the mass room editor, and only check the death room # box in order to accomplish this.



Snapshots, hit Control+Print screen, and you'll have a picture to paste into your favorite image editor (even paint, that's what I use).

nod, as speed said, mass room editor (Control+F5 or Tools-->Rooms)

hmm, well i guess i could just add a second tree under quests called 'chests' and then rename the quest organizer to "Textblock Organizer". the current format for the quests could be applied to the chests. dunno about a chest creater specificly, but i do plan to develop somthing for managing and creating txtblocks in general better.

yeah, as speed said, use the printscreen button (though it's just printscreen, dont need to use control) and then go into ms paint or w/e and do a edit --> paste (control-v). crop it up and then save it as a gif (if you have the win2k+ version of paint) since it will be nice and small and web-friendly. you can also use alt+printscreen to just capture the active window, but in NMR that is the entire NMR window.

Well, I'll be damned. It is just printscreen. At one point or another, some program/application I used, required control to be pressed. Guess I just never found out otherwise. Woot. One less keystroke for me per day.

Right after I made the post, I realized that I could probably use the Mass Room editor. I am very timid when it comes to using it, because I dont want to screw up a whole MASS of rooms :) Anyways - I figured id leave the question as is, since it is always good to be bringing ideas to the table, and perhaps my silly suggestions could trigger the mind of Syntax to come up with somethin new for us :) Anyways! Thanks for the help guys, Adios.
