I want to create a rug that the user can change texture of. action is like this. user click rub. menu opens to give user option to change trim, and option to change carpet. if user select change trim, menu changes to give user 3 options of trim. if user chooses change carpet, menu changes to give user 5 options. this is more complex than just clicking to make the next texture load as I want the user to be able to pick so that they do not have to go through all the textures to find just the right one for their mood today. I know how to make the prim. I know how to create the default. I know where the script goes in content. I just dont know the right terms to search for a tutorial that would help me do this. I guess the changeable carpet could be anything like a window changing opacity..which Id also like to do. a url or link to someplace that has tutorials would be greatly appreciated.

possible I misunderstood your post. perhaps it lost in the translation. I read it like sarcasm, and not at all helpful with regard to learning how to create a hud. here is your post: 07-20-2011 01:36 AM - last edited on 07-20-2011 01:37 AM you pay for such script to make your HUD you like and that call "investment" in other words you search for the perfect shoe HUD and you want it for free :smileywink: nice scripters doing exactly that job and they don't do it for free :smileyvery-happy:

Smoothie, I didnt say anything about getting anything for free. Maybe you should try reading more carefully. Let me help you. I said I had been looking at HUDS. I said I could purchase a batch of scripts that does not come with a hud, for 3500. i.e the seller says you have to create your own hud. thats quite an investment for someone who does not know how to make the HUd to put the scripts in. my other option is to purchase one of the shoe huds I found before I found the scripts. the one I like is about 1700. I also know where I can get the scripts I need for free already, as well as for a much lower price than 3500. regardless of what I pay or dont pay for scripts, Id LIKE TO LEARN HOW TO CREATe MY OWN HUD. Everyone knows nothing before they sit down to learn something. Or maybe you were born knowing everything you know now? that must be amazing. Now my question is for people who know something about creating huds. not writing or looking for scripts. If you know anything about how to make a hud, great, if you dont....or you think its terrible for one person to try to learn how to make something themselves, maybe you should start a thread and get some votes against people coming to second life and trying to learn something new.

rewriting my post as some folks do not seem to understand what I am looking for. so really two questions 1st one does anyone have a good tutorial on how to create a menu. Or know of SL classes? Example of menu: User clicks on item, menu with options pops up. Example two: some shoes you click on and a menu pops up with buttons. Its not a HUD. But with the menu you can choose change texture, change color. Other option: full fledged hud my original goal was to purchase the scripts I found that do everything I need. however, the scripts dont come with a HUD, nor do they provide a tutorial on how to create one. I know how to make a simple 2 button HUD, but I need to make something more complex to work with the scripts. In the finished HUD the user will be able to resize the shoe change the skin color change the toe nail color change the texture of several parts of the shoe change the color of several parts of the shoe Yes I know I can purchase a HUD that does it all. Im trying to LEARN HOW TO MAKE A COMPLEX HUD. Not get advice on what I should be purchasing. For example, I found Smartscripts for HUD by PXL. to use the scripts, you have to make your own hud. and before I spend 3500 purchasing that script package, I first need to learn how to make a HUD. I have google searched. I have searched the knowledge base. Im NOT finding anything helpful. Even torleys video does not explain HOW to create one, only how to use one. Seven Seas showed how to make a fishing hud. but it isnt complex enough for what I need. Ie it doesnt go far enough in teaching me what I need to know. Please note, Im looking for helpful suggestions to help me learn. not your comments telling me I shouldnt be trying to learn to do what other people already know.
