Tammy Longmeadow Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I have a script in my sculpted shoe and hud on but it doesnt seem to be working, is there somehing I did wrong? I put my main prim in a magic rezzer do scripts not work with that or in a certain way or do I have to put the script in all the toes and nails and foot itself? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolig Loon Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 It's impossible to say without knowing how your script is written and what you mean by "I put my main prim in a magic rezzer." Normally a color change script would be in the lnkset of whatever is changing color. I have no idea what a magic rezzer is or why you would be using it. In any case, however, unless you are writing the script yourself, you have come to the wrong forum. The LSL scripting forum is a place for scripters to share insights and ask questions about scripting ideas and projects they are working on.

Tammy Longmeadow Posted March 1, 2013 Author Share Posted March 1, 2013 I would think help with my shoe project would fit the forum, so it looks like the script needs to be in all the things that I want color changing. yaaaay more work lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolig Loon Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 It really all depends on how the script is written. A well-written script would simply sit in the root of the linkset that you want to control. Scripts for older style shoes and hair tended to be written so that they had to be in each of the prims in a linkset. Without seeing the script itself, it's impossible to tell what the scripter intended, as well as how the HUD is meant to communicate with the script. If you were writing your own script, I would advise you to use llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast in a single script to address each of the links in your shoes.

Qie Niangao Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I'd go so far as to say that, at this late date, a color-changing script that must be in each prim of a linkset is beyond obsolete and will earn derision from anybody who encounters it (such as potential customers). But I kinda don't think that was what was going on here. I suspect that there was the mistaken idea that a color change script could reside only in this rezzer and be able to remotely change the color of the objects it rezzes without those objects themselves needing any special script. Such a rezzer certainly would qualify as "Magic" -- but only to those who know the limitations of scripts (and why those limitations exist).

Rolig Loon Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Yoiu may be right, Qie. I can't guess without more information. I agree, though, that anyone writing a color changer today and putting a separate script in each prim would probably be shot. :smileyvery-happy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
