*** PLEASE IGNORE THIS POST AS I HAVE MANAGED TO CONVERT THE FILES SO THAT THEY WORK :hammer: ***
Hi All,

I have been trying to get the "GlossySerpent" skin to load and it looks like the version of CEGUI I'm using does not like the "OperatorDim" part of the schema:

Code: Select all

and my error (or hundreds of errors) is:

and this is one section of the GlossySerpent.looknfeel file:

                                <ImageDim name="GlossySerpent/EmptyGlyph24" dimension="Width" />
                                <PropertyDim name="TextUsesGlyph" />
                            </OperatorDim>
                        </OperatorDim>
                    </Dim>
                    <Dim type="TopEdge"><AbsoluteDim value="0" /></Dim>
                    <Dim type="RightEdge"><UnifiedDim scale="1" type="RightEdge" /></Dim>
                    <Dim type="Height"><UnifiedDim scale="1" type="Height" /></Dim>

                <VertFormatProperty name="VertLabelFormatting" />
                <HorzFormatProperty name="HorzLabelFormatting" />
            </TextComponent>
        </ImagerySection>


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Hi Shando,

good to hear the problem is solved. Did you have to modify anything or convert anything from the GlossySerpent skin? :-)

Hi dezGusty,

No, the only changes were Upper/Lower case ones and changing the DimOperator/OperatorDim stuff (i.e. swapping the way they work etc.).

Regards

Glossy Serpent Skin for CEGUI 0.8

Postby dezGusty » Wed Jan 15, 2014 19:49

Hello guys,

as CEGUI 0.8 should start being used more widely by now, I am officially dropping support for CEGUI 0.7 in GlossySerpent.

A new release (version 0.9) has been created, incorporating GlossySerpent and GlossySerpentFHD.
(edit: link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/glossyserpent/files/ )

Version 0.9
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Updated skin to CEGUI support 0.8.3
- CEGUI 0.7.* shall not be officially supported by new releases anymore.
- IMPORTANT NOTE: Augustin Preda, 2014.01.27. It has been reported and confirmed that the release contained incorrect
files. Recommended: DO NOT USE. Switch to 1.0 instead.

Sample update:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sample provided in this release reuses content from "Gusty's Serpents". The sample is larger, uses OGRE 3D 1.9 and CEGUI 0.8.3. You may run into issues while attempting to run the sample if your graphics card cannot support all needed shaders. (It should mostly affect quite old cards ... mostly).
Important: the sample is Windows specific and requires the presence of the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012. You should be able to get it here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30679

Note: due to the recent change, the title of the thread shall no longer be accurate. I shall try to update it. If that fails, a new thread shall be created to provide updates for CEGUI 0.8 versions of Glossy Serpent.

dezGusty out.

Cool, thanks for your work! Do you want us to rename the thread? Otherwise you can just make a new one and link it in your reply

Hi Ident.
For clarity, it would help to have a separate thread.
But I did not know if there are any guidelines against that approach (such as: "one thread per skin").

The proposed solution (link the new thread in the reply) is the one I would like to go with.
Thanks :-)

No there is no strict guideline against this. Feel free to make a new thread.
