Cusomizing CEGUI ??

For help with anything that CEGUI doesn't offer straight out-of-the-box, e.g.:
- Implementation of new features, such as new Core classes, widgets, WindowRenderers, etc. ...
- Modification of any existing features for specific purposes
- Integration of CEGUI in new engines or frameworks and writing of new plugins (Renderer, Parser, ...) or modules

Cusomizing CEGUI ??

1) custom Look (aka Windows, Taharez)

You can make up a new dll. There was been discussion about a data driven way of customising the appearence. If you look at the code, its almost all setup and simple layout code, which could be specified in a data file instead. The bad news is this hasn't been done yet.
2) Create the '.font' files

Just edit them in a text editor. It just references the font file and has some extra info.
3) create imagesets & '.tga' files

Text editor and photoshop, I imagine.
4) create '.schema' files

Text editor - it just lists the widgets that can be created by the dll.

thanks for your answers. So I guess '.tga' is just an image/texture which I create it under photoshop and save with this extension ?


Yes, but you can use any format supported by the image loader. Personally, I use PNG.
