  • Have you had a look at the shadow examples that ship with construct 2?

  • I've had a quick look at your screen capture and just going off that, obviously not knowing the rest of your program, I would go about it like this:

    This does not do what you asked - I go about it a different way. If you need to choose images from your array you are almost there. Where you are saying if music name is the equivalent of "bounce" add an action after this saying create sprite "picture required".

    Anyway have a quick look at my version and see if you can take anything from it.

  • R0J0hound - Thanks for the update - I had a quick look at those links and it is definitely outside my comfort zone

    Please don't spend time on this for me - I will either go about it in C2 another way or go back to the drawing board.

    Thanks again.

  • R0J0hound - many thanks.

    Now to see if I can make any sense of it...

  • Thanks for the link.

    The problem I have is trying to get C2 to pronounce welsh place names - I realise it stands little chance just going off the spelling but I was hoping I could break the words down into individual sounds and stick them into the google TTS engine (planning on running on an android device because that is what my friend already has). Basically I think it is not possible and I am now looking at Nuances TTS for welsh off google play store - I just don't know what the TTS engine will cost when it comes out of beta and I don't want to give him something that in 6 months needs an update costing £ ( who knows )....

    On the bright side the welsh TTS appears to work well.

    Anyway, thanks again for the link.

  • beginning to lose hope.

    If this is not possible is there a way to record (and save for next time) pronunciations as sound files inside C2 ?

  • first impression is I can't see anything wrong with that - are you altering the spShip angle anywhere else ? I will try to have a play later.

    Happy to look at your beta if you want.

  • subtle bump - well maybe not that subtle

  • y (height) goes from top to bottom - this is normal for most computer languages.

    Is this what you mean ?

    edit

    you can always take your "height" from the maximum height if that helps

  • Just a quick thankyou korbaach for this and other examples that you post. I am learning a lot from you.

  • use a couple of variables (personal choice would be for instance variables on the ship but global variables will work) lets call these "LookAtX" and "LookAtY". Change these two variables when you touch the screen and use these variables to set the player angle as required. this way the ship will know which way to face even if there is no touch

  • [quote:26v4dnkp]can you attach a link to the mentioned plugin?

    well here is a link to a list maintained by Kyatric with most (all?) of the plugins available

    and here is a link to the plugin

  • rexrainbow does a very nice time/date plugin - or you could just manipulate the returned string (left$?)

  • Can I send phonemes to the text to speech in C2 and if so how ?

    eg : pronunciation for "hello": could be "h eh l ow" - unfortunately my requirements are slightly more complicated than "Hello".

    Thanks.
