Individual Class Icons

[DevTeam] [Zeke]: I love that I get emailed when someone reports spam on the boards, but I can't do anything about it.
[DevTeam] [Nachonut]: lol i got you
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: How about "hide email address from public checked" and it's still visible in all my posts...
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: I'd delete my account on this site, but by the time I realized the problem half the spambots on the planet had it already
[Developer] [Pazza]: Astaldo if you log out and view your profile with a refresh you'll see that your email is hidden.
[Developer] [Pazza]: Your user level on the forums permit you to see emails even though they are marked hidden.
[DevTeam] [Astaldo]: Ah.. thanks for the clarification and apologies for "crying wolf" in that case :
[DevTeam] [Kaidenn]: PAZZA! i miss you.
[DevTeam] [Nachonut]: Lol, it's funny how it takes spam message reports to get me to come back
[DevTeam] [sylvanaar]: Check out the beta tester forum. Need alpha testers and feedback so I can come up with a maintenance plan.
[Developer] [Pazza]: loaded some new spam prevention modules... lets see if this stops the bastards.
[DevTeam] [Maziel]: Thought I'd check in and say Howdy Doody from Australia
[DevTeam] [Maziel]: Yeah the spam from shoes salesmen was becoming insane
[Guest] [Delakando]: What ever happened to the ability to track friend's location by wim? Other then just showing their general zone location.

I know you asked us to hold off until the documentation was done...but it has been over a month and I have very, very little coding know-how.

So I was wondering how I would go about setting up the class icons as individual file instead of one big one. I really don't get the whole texture coords thing and I just want to have each image sit in its spot as individual icons.

[Stewart]

not sure if its actually possible to do that with the api, but the texture coords are simple enough

druid = {.75, 0, .75, .25, 1, 0, 1, .25};
means that the druid icon is in the class icon texture and has its topleft at 75% accross, 0% down,
bottomleft at 75% accross 25% down
topright at 100% across 0% down
bottom right 100% across 25% down


so in a grid of 4x4 'blocks' its in block 4

Code:

1   2   3   4
5   6   7   8
9   10 11  12
13  14 15 16

,

Standard rules apply to the class icon image, width and height needs to be a power of 2, transparencies done in an alpha channel not transparent background

[Tonedef]

Wow...that makes a lot of sense!! Thanks

Why did I lose Karma lol

[Tonedef]

Okay...so I did as you said and everything worked wonders for the top row. (in a setup like you used 4x4)

After that the icons fit like they should...but are not the right ones.

For example (using your block above) #7 is mage, so I have {.5, .25, .5, .5, .75, .25, .75, .5} but it is displaying the hunter icon which is #6.

And the hunter is showing rogue (#5) and rogue is showing Shaman (#4)

...and the really odd thing is that warrior (#9) is showing the bottom right half of mage (#7) [split diagonal]. My warrior coords are {0, 5, 0, .75, .25, .5, .25, .75}.


I hope this makes sense...I understand that they are all linking one back, aside from the odd warrior one...but the coords should be right.


Edit: Ah, I am a retard. I forgot to update my .tga after rearranging and as for the warrior bit...I forgot a decimal. lol

[Stewart]

its easy to make mistakes, i managed to write out my window coordinates so the height added up to 0.8 the first try by mistake. Glad you got it sorted out
