Programming a Scroll Bar MSAR [Read Description!]

[KaijeTheGreat]

what programming language is that? and what editor?

[AndrewFMs]

The language is GML (unofficial language), and the editor is Game Maker.

[msndokaralho]

Yep, make scroll bars is hard as hell.

I tried several times before create the simpliest one. And it stills very unstable and buggy :/

[mjurgilas1997]

how much time you are making MSAR

[mjurgilas1997]

wth is libarys in GML

[AndrewFMs]

A library is an extension to add more functions to the program. There are two types of libraries: a .lib that is Game Maker exclusive that extends the D&D functionality, and a .dll that can be used in most standard languages, including Game Maker, which extends the scripting functionality.

[jessegd123]

dll I have experience from in VB but .lib? is that only for gm?

[evilman256]

wow cool that looks so...hard lol

[Haiku01]

Well then, After programming this scrollbar you can make shops easily by copying and pasting. You just gotta change the item ids for the shop and all the functions used on the shop.

And im kind of an GM7 Coder but im a fan of your work too AndrewFM.

its not a private server. its a fan-game based on maplestory. if that should be online there would be some scripts to show other player's he would also need to connect it to a MySQL

and need to port forward to make a listening port.+ private servers is illegal you can be jailed. but of course its a little bit okay if he make it himself. but nexon bought copyright.

[ThexPope]

Trust me bud, Priv severs can exist if You use the correct laws.

[Anonymsdevil]

omg your born to make private servers

[alexande93]

looks like Andrew only use's the Execute piece of code option =)

of course i do that myself. but its the most exact way to code if you want something perfect.

*only for advanced user's*

Looks like andrew it trying to figure out what the best code is for the scroll bar in a shop menu =P

[alex769]

HOLY CRAP O_O andrew ur god..

[marktan0204]

like when i extracted MSAR v.3.0 it didn't even open even though i met all the requirents

[Angelcape]

Holy shit andrew, this is even more complicated than I thought! Hell, it's crazy! I give you my respect! Props to you, Andrew!

[jordy312]

argh!! what document is that so i can change my meso to 999,999,999 >:] ;]

[vantruong420]

[sallygirl411]

uhh all that is gibrish to me, but thats awsome!!! i can never do that. cool looks like that is for the shop that is comming out in alfa v4

[KaitsuShiro]

Wow, no negative comments bout gamemaker, good job showing how hard it is to do something

[Hriply]

I wanted to tell you AndrewFMs, that ur msar web sux, cuz i cant register there, and i wanna play msar as hell. My validation code is not comming to my e-mail. It really suck.

[chumdog]

daaaaam !! thts crzy.... u gota be crzy good in math to do that.... all thoes .. equations and stuf... XD wow.. thts amazing.. thght it would be simpler.. but daaam I was wrong..

[p4rtysqu4d]

why dont i get the confirmation email?!?!?!?!

[devimo]

Why not make calls to external librarys for support for it...?

[devimo]

Rofl. GameMaker 7.0? You had to use the worst one huh?

[AndrewFMs]

It's the only one that supports importing of png files, which are what all the external images I'm using are.

[jasin95]

you can just open it with paint and do save as and change the extension that way...

and is most of the console made of picture directories? xP

[taco510]

MapleLegend FTW

[fr0g9a]

wow that is amazing, i didnt no side scrolling needed so much effort! gj andrew and gl on ur next version!

[lancer011]

Eww Andrew, Windows 2000?

[AndrewFMs]

Windows XP

[kakashilama]

Whoops sorry i dident look at the description

[kakashilama]

How long was that real time?

[dashark101]

lol, i never that a scrollbar was that hard to program O.o with that many lines of code id think your programing each frame of the scroll bar...

[AndrewFMs]

Each frame of the scrollbar O__o? It's not an animation...

[dashark101]

I meant like when the curser is at at certain pixel it would goto that frame.. like if it were in the middle and there were 100 frames of it then the frame was at 50 or if the curser was at the top it would be frame 1...

[AndrewFMs]

Again, it's not an animation. It's a single picture that changes it's Y position over a distance.

[dashark101]

well im not used to GML im used to scripting on blender3d...

[Velgarde]

Genius at work. Excellent 5/5!

[BobelVago]

This is the type of pr0n I like, hardcore, and stylish.

[AndrewFMs]

For them to have any use for them, they'd have to understand it anyway. And if they were skilled enough to understand it, they'd be able to write something like that themselves :P

[AndrewFMs]

Oh, and they weren't being serious, if you didn't realize :P

[Shoyz]

Lol, the source isn't visible, idiots. The source for a scroll bar is. And the video is so blurry that you won't be able to get anything..

[Xishem]

ZOMG. JEXT IS RITE. : O. DATS HAWT.

[Jextwisdom]
