[TheHellhound17]

You are a god! :D

[bfboii]

I'm planning to become a game developer when i get older and i think these turorials help me on my way to fulfill that dream, and telling me where to get that web_button would change my life. Without being able to continue in these turorials it feels like i cant reach my dream, so please, i would love you even more if u would tell me where to get the web_button :>

[TheMapleMadness]

@bfboii Just type in google: button and set the pixel size to 128 x 32 and you will find millions of other buttons you can use. Just create your own GUI, you don't have to copy everything from the tutorial. Bring some variation in it yourself :)

[bfboii]

@TheMapleMadness thanks for the reply :D

[TheMapleMadness]

@bfboii No problem! But remember not to use anything from others for commercial purposes without asking for permision first. :) But if it's just a project for you and your friends, I think you can use anything you want.. :p

[bfboii]

i love these tutorials, but, where can i get that button?! please reply

[FreeAppleProductsNow]

The problem is that the vitals are all grouped together so I don't know how to individually change the label for mana, health and energy. I can only change the colour of all of them at once.

[FreeAppleProductsNow]

What would be the easiest way to separately change the colours of the Health, Energy and Mana Vital Labels? Plus how could I get them next to each other rather than below?

Thanks in advance!

[BurgZergArcade]

@FreeAppleProductsNow adjust the color of the material and then just move them to where you want.

hey what part of the skin is the background..how do i put a background in?

[TheMihaibogdan]

how are u makeing these texture buttons?Please RE:

[QwertysChannel]

I always thought that it'd be hard to learn C# (or just any C language), but you proved me wrong. :)

Thanks a lot for these awesome tutorials!

[BurgZergArcade]

@QwertysChannel Always happy to hear people like them.

[leonpoiss]

Very nice!

[dukieee]

Love these video tutorials, bought the scripts so you can have some more coffee :) Brilliant work!

[BurgZergArcade]

@dukieee thank you :)

[YouKnowWhoNiller]

What kind of file type is the picture you use? The i use a random JPG picture i dont got as many things to change as you have on 2:35?

[asymons]

I just need to say this one thing, Thank you so much for all these videos, I know its a long quest from video 1-200 , each video taking me a good 15 minutes to complete the tasks, but its all worth it in the end, lots of knowledge, and possibly a future career, thank you so much!

[BurgZergArcade]

@asymons Glad to hear that you are learning something. I am not sure at what number the series will end, but I still have a lot planned for it.

[asymons]

@BurgZergArcade Please keep continuing on the series! I greatly enjoy these series and I wouldn't mind buying you some coffee too!

[Vakra22]

@asymons There is 200 because that's max number of videos you can add to playlist ,but now there is about 350 tutorials.

[flashmouse2]

with what program do you make the textures?

[kxmode]

I'll post a reply to this once I get further along in the project.

[kxmode]

10:33 Would it not be better to group all elements under the mySkin style then all the ones you don't want styled under null? For example:

GUI.skin = mySkin;

DisplayName();

DisplayPointsLeft();

DisplayAttributes();

DisplaySkills();

GUI.skin = null;

DisplayVitals();

This works the same. It feels a little easier to me. :)

[kxmode]

Is there a way to make a donation to thank you for ALL these wonderful videos?

[BurgZergArcade]

@kxmode Only thing I have in place is the purchasing of the scripts for a few buks to support the coffe fund.

[DobbysChannel]

can i add a style to individual attributes? how would i do that when they have been grouped into DisplayAttributes?

[digimikeh]

it is possible to use texture buttons without text ?

[BurgZergArcade]

@digimikeh Sure.

[Jeorney]

Just a thought... was it necessary to do formating in code? It looks like all all the alignment essentials were already available in the inspector. Although I can see potential for animating elements if it is done in code.

Great tutoral series btw and glad its in C#!

[UnknownGamerX]

where can i get that style or a style! please!

[BurgZergArcade]

@UnknownGamerX I have a link on the website to the Necromancer skin. It is a nice free to use skin for Unity. I would recommend learning to create your own first though. Even using an awesome skin form someone else, you will have to make some edits to get it to work the way you want.

[csv01091992]

I just started to watch your tutorials and i must say they are great I`m no Styleïng my GUI but over what you sad with unity`s button. You can get it back by undo in windows use Ctrl+z and you have your original button back. And plz don`t stop with your tutorial series .

[narutoisgreat1234]

BurgZergArcade all i can say is fab Tutorial thanks :)

[BurgZergArcade]

@narutoisgreat1234 I have a ton more index by what they do over on the website! Check out the Unity API section if you get stuck.

[narutoisgreat1234]

@BurgZergArcade i will do thank you very much you are probably the best Tutorial maker i know :)

[MitchellNing]

More videos??? I'm getting antsy!!

[Gamerdad81]

@MitchellNing i agree :)

[Gamerdad81]

TGIF!

[BurgZergArcade]

We need more videos of what you have created! Let's see them!

[Gamerdad81]

@BurgZergArcade Yea now im curious to see others as well so i have something to compare to, also tomorrow cant come soon enough! need more tutorials! You could always throw one on tonight Petey :P

[Marwaniok]

@BurgZergArcade i wanted to post one but cam studio kept crashing my computer so i guess i cant record it but i can take a picture of it.

[BurgZergArcade]

@Marwaniok Fraps has a free version and seemed to work for me. If not, no worries. I just wanted to see what everyone was making.

[Gamerdad81]

Im kind of curious Petey, How far do you plan to take this vid diary? are we actually going as far as loot tables, creating an inventory, Equipping items by parent etc? consumable items, adding stats to weapons that effect your damage/delay?

[BurgZergArcade]

@Gamerdad81 I hope to cover all of those topics in this series as they are not that hard to implement on their own, it just takes a bit of forethought before you start.

[Gamerdad81]

@BurgZergArcade Excellent i cant wait! This could be the most Epic Unity game tutorial on the web, to create a playable game from start to finish within a tutorial will be amazing. The inventory tutorial alone im sure will be a huge hit as most people charge for a "decent" inventory system.

[GesterX]

Dude - just want to say your tutorials are great. Very well paced, very thorough and I've learnt a lot from them. Looking forward to the next ones :-)

[Gamerdad81]

Submitted my video response, if you want to see more of your tutorial scripts in action check out some of my other vid's :)

[BurgZergArcade]

Great! Can't wait to see what some people come up with over the next week.

One thing that I forgot to mention was that once you have a guiskin made, you can use it over and over on every scene so your application has a unified look and feel throughout. This can save a ton of time as your game grows.

[Gamerdad81]

Thanks again petey, Ill set up a style and post a vid for it :)
