Unity Tutorial 05: Part 1: "3D Menus"

[KrookedSaint]

PS:  Don't listen to those guys. Your pacing is perfect.

[KrookedSaint]

Great tutorial, Alec.

I'm a noob with this stuff but this video really helped me. I'm expanding on this tutorial to gain a better understanding of this stuff. I do have one question for you tho...

I want to write a function that animates multiple gameObjects when called. How do you pass a new gameObject into iTween's parameter without explicitly saying:

iTween.MoveTo(gameObject,... blah blah blah.);

You are awesome.

Stay Canadian.

[mestizosuomi]

I think that you shuld do a tutorial how to download or install this JS that clear come from the Zip as CS.

[RamonFRT]

You talk so slowly, i got sleep. I simply could not finish watching ur tutorials.

[supersushi269]

@RamonFRT LOL

[MrDiablo5222]

ok i made the plugins folder but when i try to import the stuff to my project its .cs not .js. i dont know how to do cs!!!! how do i get js?

[MrDiablo5222]

Mine was saved as a unity package file? not .cs or .js

[MrFinnfemfel]

Has anybody managed to download iTween recently? Nothing happens when I click on the download button.

[Ramish897]

cheater

[gw2live]

And javascript is where I stop playing this video. Get C# people! C#!

[leonSkennidy]

@infiniteammoinc when i download it, it got 3 folder and 2 files (Pixelplacement > iTweenPath > and the .cs file named iTweenPath and on the folder Editor theres a .cs file named iTweenPathEditor) when i used to import those files and folder it had compiler error i cant fix it.

P.S. If you cant understand what I use to say then don't reply and your a noob!!

[RisenHolymordCZ]

how to add background pls?

[CHETACHEEZSQR]

hey im new at this making game stuff lol... i got unity 3d and im working on a game called "The Amazing Balls" lmao ... anyway i did everything u said to do, but i always get compile errors when write'n scripts ( which i have no idea how to do ) but i know it did it right and i put the itween in the plugins, now it says Assets/MenuItem.js(22,41): BCE0049: Expression '1.607978F' cannot be assigned to. ( thats the position ) i suk at scripts... lol

[CHETACHEEZSQR]

@CHETACHEEZSQR never mind... i fixed it... my mistake... anyway, now when i test it, the entire menu just keeps popping in and out lol without me clicking things..

[firestrong132]

it says method not found: 'iTween.moveTo'.

can you help me by giving me the script please

[Kriki232]

every good project starts with a cube SO true!!!

[FOBaWockeeZ]

@infiniteammoinc I downloaded iTween using the correct links but it was downloaded as .cs file, not .js, does that matter? Because I get Unkown Identifiers for 'OnSelected' and 'iTween'

[infiniteammoinc]

@FOBaWockeeZ You may have to create a folder called "Plugins" in your project and put iTween.cs in there. (to ensure that it compiles first) You can google "unity compile order" for more info. :)

[infiniteammoinc]

@hail55storm iTween is free. Click the giant "DOWNLOAD ITWEEN" button on the top of the page to reveal a panel, then click "VISIT GOOGLE CODE". Also, I didn't write it, it just happens to be a great free tool to use, that's why I talk about it.

[GoFilmsHD]

I got an error saying "Unknown identifyer iTween". Can you please help me?

[lazerice11]

@GoFilmsHD I had to tweak the script slightly, try using this:

function Start()

{ while(true) { OnSelected(true); yield new WaitForSeconds(1.0); OnSelected(false); yield new WaitForSeconds(1.0); }

}

function OnSelected(on:boolean)

{ if(on) { iTween.MoveTo(gameObject,Vecto­r3(0,0,-1.5),2); } else { iTween.MoveTo(gameObject,Vecto­r3(0,0,0),2); }

}

Use this one for the cube on 0,0,0, then make another 2 scripts (for exit and new game) but use

[lazerice11]

@lazerice11... 0,2,-1.5 and 0,2,0 for new game and 0,-2,-1.5 and 0,-2,0 for exit.

You'll have to put the lines for the script in the right place though.

[infiniteammoinc]

@GoFilmsHD You probably don't have iTween in your project in that case.

[karebear357]

function OnMouseUp() would have been easier but this is Great and helpful vid

thanks

[EleMunjeli]

I've really enjoyed his tutorials. I don't expect him to answer everyone's questions. It's a service when someone goes through the bother of creating a series like this. I like how fast he moves across the material, and that he doesn't ignore the design angle. Also, he's passed on some cool links. iTween was good I thought if you want to do some quick and dirty webgames.

[LPsevenup]

Сделайте перевод на русский люди)

[devere1239851]

unforunatly u have to buy itween now

[BaronVonFail]

@devere1239851 That's not true. There is a huge download button top right sending you to a page to download it. They just would like donations

[Dayve0]

My problem: Unity doesn't know the identifier "OnSelected". Does anyone had the same problem?

[guineapig1016]

@10chadjordan01 did you find out?

[10chadjordan01]

@guineapig1016 No, he hasn't responded yet. If anyone else knows, please inform. The only great capture programs I can find for mac are not free. Would be great if infiniteammoinc would let me know.

[10chadjordan01]

@guineapig1016 I decided to just download one via torrents. Thanks for nothing infiniteammoinc.

[TrentR42]

@10chadjordan01 He's probably working on his game Marian, he's a full time indie developer. So 'thanks for nothing' is kind of a douchey thing to say for someone who's made such awesome tutorials available to everyone.

[JoshPeterson1978]

@10chadjordan01 Agreed! I couldn't follow along easily either, and not all of the files worked for my version of Unity.

[infiniteammoinc]

@10chadjordan01 Hey, if you have feedback that you think would be helpful to me, you can actually send it to me so I can read it. Odds are I won't notice comments on here because there are too many to sort through. (my time is spent mainly working on my own games for now, not answering tutorial comments)

I think you might have been asking about some kind of capture program or something? I use ScreenFlow. It costs money.

[10chadjordan01]

@infiniteammoinc Wow this is old, about a week or so after I asked, I managed to find Screenflow and I have it now. Good luck on all your projects.

[supersushi269]

@10chadjordan01 Is there a better series? link please

[10chadjordan01]

@supersushi269 Actually yes there is. Search BurgZergArcade. No links can be copied into Youtube dumbass.

[supersushi269]

@10chadjordan01 You can copy URLs! eg /watch?v=vIhs8_m5qPc

[10chadjordan01]

@supersushi269 oh yeah okay, fucking retard.

[JoshPeterson1978]

@TrentR42 Why get so defensive? He's just stating the obvious.

[10chadjordan01]

@JoshPeterson1978 Thank you!

[HUMUNAHA]

Hey, i keep getting a compiler error that it can't identify the "iTween" identifier in the script... I've tried everything i can think of, any help?

[SmartAlex411]

@HUMUNAHA Had this same error. On the iTween homepage, it covers this though: just add a folder called "Plugins" in your Assets list and stick the iTween file in there. This is apparently necessary for JavaScript and Boo.

[Deagle243]

@SmartAlex411 and cs apparently

[Rapdream]

your grafics are nice im using a radeon ati 8800 how come the display of mine isnt that nice? perhaps you could help me out with that? sry for multi posts

[Rapdream]

ok i found out how. You need to click on the tab where the scene is...

[Rapdream]

how come i dont see the grid in space is it because of my version? im using 3.1 pls any help would be great

[superroblox]

i would say gui menus are better than 3d menus

[justin8567a]

this is a sscript i made for loading screens if you want one it doesn't load as fast but you can change the loading time function Start()

{ yield new WaitForSeconds(17.0); Application.LoadLevel(2);

}

[justin8567a]

does this only work on mac or do i need unity 2.0 for windows

[MrEsoMafi]

I cant download it!!! I click on Download iTweet and it just write me something about version 2.00 and there is any link to download it.

[2048Terrabit]

@MrEsoMafi Select "blah-blah-blah Google Code". Then on Google code, select - Download tab. And then download iTween :D

[TornadoTwins]

Once again nice work dude!

Keep em coming!

TornadoTwins

[pixelplacement]

Thanks a TON for the iTween mention! Version 2 coming is coming as soon as its ready!

[11LANE11]

thanks, that was a big help!

[Beady2]
