Shakin the camera (Solution found)

[petri]

You probably restarted the editor. That's required to reload the assets for now (bug).

Actually I just checked with 1.2.12 and textures and sounds are reloaded when you select Reload Project from menu. Are you sure it does not work?

This happened in the version previous to 1.1.12

[petri]

Ok, thanks. I'll remove the bug from my todo list.

[Dinasty]

there is a way to set how much time the camera shakes?

[Neikun]

The duration (the second number) variable. It's a number that represents the number of seconds will shake. (can be a decimal such as 0.4 or 1.83)
So to shake the camera at intensity one half for three seconds it would look like this:

Code: Select all

function scareshake()
   party:shakeCamera(0.5,3)
   end

Edit, oops I realised I posted in, somewhat the wrong thread, this one is very old. But it was a link given to me in my thread to help solve a problem, sorry for the old thread.



I can't seem to get it working.


I've put some code in an lua script_entity, and I think I've done everything right because it doesn't say it's invalid.

What I've done is caused the shakescreen function to happen when a certain door opens.

Code: Select all

-- the shakes
function shakemgood()
	if zdoor:open() == true then
	party:shakeCamera(1,1)
	end
end

When I toggle the door open and closed, nothing happens.

Interesting...

You need to use zdoor:isOpen(), not zdoor:open().

For my dungeons I use this: http://soundbible.com/suggest.php?q=ear ... e&x=2&y=13

It fits perfectly with the basic shacking camera value copied from the forum with a realistic touch of some rocks falling after the shake effect ends.

LOL

Earthquake sound

Code: Select all

playSound("earthquake")

Earthquake particle effect

Code: Select all

spawn("fx", 1, 15, 15, 3, "dust")
dust:setParticleSystem("earthquake_dust")

Note: spawn(object, level, x, y, facing, [id])
Thanks to Lmaoboat's LED dungeon display code.

(Sorry for my english)

Hi!! Once I've read all about the original LoG sound (earthquake) and its aplicattion, I post this:

I've been looking for AN HOUR!! a solution to avoid the "loop" in the earthquake sound that repeats.
But nothing...
I've used hidden pressure plates that starts timers (initially stopped) to break the loop, different scripts making all kind of posibilities that I know (including break code properly) without solve that problem...

I'm sure we are missing something...



P.D: infinite earthquake sound as prize for an hour of useless work...
