In this very long tutorial I cover all the steps from the idea stage to the fully functional scrolling listbox that I have shown off previously. I also go through Presets & Records again and I take the list concept one step further to show you how easy it is to extend on this and make more advanced lists.
Now this tutorial is not so much about the actual thing we create but more about the concepts I cover. I will teach you how to make a scrolling list, which is a concept you can use for so many things. I also teach more about presets and records, plus quite a lot about code organization and how to write good UI code. So even if the list might not be something you want to use, you still might want to watch the tutorial as there is probably a lot you can learn from it if you are not an experienced programmer.
Part 1: Planning (1 Video)
I go through some basics of planning your code and why it is important to plan your code.
Part 2: Data Setup (3 Videos)
In this part I set up the data storage for our map, I also cover Presets & Records in greater detail as well as good coding structure.
Part 3: Creating The Dialog (8 Videos)
In this part I create the actual dialog, I cover some clever ways of storing data from your dialog, how to select items and make the dialog scroll. Also how to handle button callback and more.
Finally I finish this off by modifying my list from not only being shown on the UI but also showing off units ingame. This concept can be used to create more advanced unit selection dialogs.
Can you get your Videos Fixed because they'll stop at certain points for me i have to skip some parts to the next working part of your video. Other parts while playing it will go back to start of Video. It's only happening to me on your Scrolling List Box YouTube Videos, I Don't if the problem is on YouTube's end or if your video has errors causing these issues. The other videos of yours work fine. one of the problem videos at 5:59 it stops most times, After that video the rest worked fine for me.
My Projects:
Sorted Multiplayer Leader Board
Card Shuffle Dialog Demo
Air Wars Mass
Blizzard Fan since Starcraft. The Single Player story is AMAZING IMO, I can't wait for the Expansions. In Warcraft 3 I only enjoy the Custom Maps scene (& Blizzards...
