I need help with nyx please

sxxx_fxxx · Post by **sxxx_fxxx** » Sun Aug 28, 2011 1:22 am

I've never edited the script before, but i want to make my tease go to a random image within a range after a timer

page11#page(
'<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2">test</TEXTFORMAT>',
pic("*.jpg"),
delay(10sec, range(2,6,'page')#)
);

Thats what i've got from the tutorial given, but the page just loops. Can someone point out what im doing wrong?

I cant even get this to work!

start#page(
'The next page will be randomly selected',
pic("yourpic.jpg"),
go(range(1,5,'page'))
);

1#page('This page shows up if range generated a 1',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

2#page('This page shows up if range generated a 2',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

3#page('This page shows up if range generated a 3',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

4#page('This page shows up if range generated a 4',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

5#page('This page shows up if range generated a 5',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

Tried this too with same result

start#page(
'The next page will be randomly selected',
pic("1.jpg"),
go(range(1,3,'page'))
);

1#page('This page shows up if range generated a 1',
pic("1.jpg"),
buttons(whereyouwanttogo#,"Ok")
);

2#page('This page shows up if range generated a 2',
pic("1.jpg"),
buttons(whereyouwanttogo#,"Ok")
);

3#page('This page shows up if range generated a 3',
pic("1.jpg"),
buttons(whereyouwanttogo#,"Ok")
);

cant press continue with any of those scripts that were on other help topics

Try this script if you're not using buttons. Just paste it in and edit the delay time and page numbers to fit your tease.

delay(time:15sec, target:range(from:12,to:14,prefix:'page'),style:hidden)

The whole script for a frame should look something like this:

page11#page(
'<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2">Hands off.</TEXTFORMAT>',
pic("jodie16.jpg"),
delay(time:15sec, target:range(from:12,to:14,prefix:'page'),style:hidden)
);

If you're using buttons try this text:

vert(buttons(page30#, "I Came"),delay(10sec, range(from:18,to:20,prefix:'page'),style:hidden)),

Just paste it in and edit the delay time and page numbers to fit your tease. To change button text just edit the text between the two quote marks.

The whole thing should look something like this (this script is using sound not text):

page17#page(
'',
pic("heather15.jpg"),
vert(buttons(page30#, "I Came"),delay(10sec, range(from:18,to:20,prefix:'page'),style:hidden)),
hidden:sound('outifits.mp3')
);

vert(buttons(page30#, "I Came"),delay(10sec, range(from:14,to:16,prefix:'page'),style:hidden))

Hope you can get it to work.

I dont have one anymore lol, im just trying to get the basic thing to work, i copied and pasted scrips from other help topics and none of them even work :S

Like this one

start#page(
'The next page will be randomly selected',
pic("yourpic.jpg"),
go(range(1,5,'page'))
);

1#page('This page shows up if range generated a 1',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

2#page('This page shows up if range generated a 2',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

3#page('This page shows up if range generated a 3',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

4#page('This page shows up if range generated a 4',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

5#page('This page shows up if range generated a 5',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

All that happens is that I cant press continue.

Well, one of the problems with that script is this line:

delay(10sec, range(2,6,'page')#)

As I understand it, the "#" will cause an error in the code... there's a bug in Nyx where it will sometimes add the # symbol for a range command IF you use the Visual editor (as opposed to the Script editor). So if you're doing your FlashTease through the Visual editor (as I have been) and you use the range command, you should go into the Script editor to double check that Nyx didn't add the # symbol. I had the same problem as well when I first tried using the range command.

Hope that helps.

Try this:

Pick out five images.

Open a new tease in Nyx.
Add six pages. It should be start# and pages 2-6
Upload the five images into your tease.
Select a different picture for each page.
Set the Delay on each page for 5 seconds (Hidden)
Set the Target on page 2-5 for page6#
Save the tease.
Click on the Script tab and view the script.

It should look something like this:

start#page(
'',
pic("ines1.jpg")
);

page2#page(
'',
pic("ines2.jpg"),
delay(5sec, page6#,style:hidden)
);

page3#page(
'',
pic("ines3.jpg"),
delay(5sec, page6#,style:hidden)
);

page4#page(
'',
pic("ines4.jpg"),
delay(5sec, page6#,style:hidden)
);

page5#page(
'',
pic("ines5.jpg"),
delay(5sec, page6#,style:hidden)
);

page6#page(
'',
pic("ines6.jpg")
);

Paste the command below under the start# page:

delay(time:5sec, target:range(from:2,to:5,prefix:'page'),style:hidden)

Your start page script will now look something like this (the other 5 pages will be the same):

start#page(
'',
pic("ines1.jpg"),
delay(time:5sec, target:range(from:2,to:5,prefix:'page'),style:hidden)
);

Press Save in the under the Script editor.

Press the Preview tab. The first page (start#) will show for 5 seconds and then it will advance to another page for 5 seconds and advance to page 6.

Press preview again. A the first page (start#) will show for 5 seconds and then it should advance to a different page for five seconds and then advance to page 6.

What this does. You are telling program to show the start# page for 5 seconds and then randomly choose a page from page 2 through page 5, show that random page for 5 seconds and then advance to page 6.

if you only need a random IMAGE (while the functionality of the next page will be the same), simply use a mask for image name. Say, pick your images, name them something like random01, random02, etc... then use
pic(random*.jpg) - this will choose among all images that start with the word "random" and the rest is whaterver it may be.

As for random page selection...

page11#page(
'<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2">test</TEXTFORMAT>',
pic("*.jpg"),
delay(10sec, range(2,6,'page')#)
);

here's your mistake.

start#page(
'The next page will be randomly selected',
pic("yourpic.jpg"),
go(range(1,5,'page'))
);

1#page('This page shows up if range generated a 1',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

2#page('This page shows up if range generated a 2',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

3#page('This page shows up if range generated a 3',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

4#page('This page shows up if range generated a 4',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

5#page('This page shows up if range generated a 5',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

This works fine. It shows random pages as it should. Only you should remember that there's a bug in the editor, that it does not unset pages, even if you use the button "reset". I.e. while in editor each page can be randomly picked only once, so when you test that script 5 times, and as it will show you all 5 of your pages, it will stop working until you restart the editor. It will work fine in the actual published tease though, if you use unset() function (it won't work in the editor)

start#page(
'The next page will be randomly selected',
pic("yourpic.jpg"),
mult(
unset(1#,2#,3#,4#),
go(range(1,5,'page')))
);

1#page('This page shows up if range generated a 1. This is not the end yet',
pic("yourpic.jpg"),
go(start#)
);

2#page('This page shows up if range generated a 2. This is not the end yet',
pic("yourpic.jpg"),
go(start#)
);

3#page('This page shows up if range generated a 3. This is not the end yet',
pic("yourpic.jpg"),
go(start#)
);

4#page('This page shows up if range generated a 4. This is not the end yet',
pic("yourpic.jpg"),
go(start#)
);

5#page('This page shows up if range generated a 5. You have finally found the end.',
pic("yourpic.jpg")
);

this one will work in the PUBLISHED tease like that: It will pick random page from range 1-5 until page 5 is picked. Maybe it'll pick 5th page on the evry first try, but there are chances it will pick it only on, say, 20th try. It will unset pages 1-4, so they may be re-chosen again and again. It will not work in the editor because it can't unset things.

now to the other guy.

delay(time:15sec, target:range(from:12,to:14,prefix:'page'),style:hidden)

this will most likely cause a glitch. Don't ever copy\paste scripts from /getscript.php of a ready tease. It should look like that:

delay(15sec, range(12,14,'page'),style:hidden)

At least don't teach others bad things.

Thank you soooo much, i didnt even think to use the random image thing, that will save A LOT of time and pages

I didnt know about the bug in the editor; i think thats what the problem i was having was

Thanks again for your help :D

no problem. I strongly trecommend you read through the links I gave, lots of good stuff there.

sxxx_fxxx · Post by **sxxx_fxxx** » Mon Aug 29, 2011 4:44 am

Have i done something wrong with the script? Some of the pictures on the tease arent showing up when it starts to get into the pages with timers

http://www.milovana.com/webteases/showf ... p?id=13180

13#page(
'<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2">Go at any speed</TEXTFORMAT>',
unset(12#,13#,14#.15#,16#,17#,18#,19#,20#,21#,22#,23#,24#,25#,26#,27#,28#,29#)
pic("int1*.jpg"),
delay(15sec, range(12,29,'page'),style:secret)
);

Nezhul · Post by **Nezhul** » Mon Aug 29, 2011 4:50 am

First of all you have a comma missing after unset.
second, well you see, nyx normally can't process set(), unset(), must(), mustnot() functions. They should be placed in a containers like mult(), vert(), or horiz(). I.e.:

13#page(
'<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2">Go at any speed</TEXTFORMAT>',
pic("int1*.jpg"),
mult(
unset(12#,13#,14#.15#,16#,17#,18#,19#,20#,21#,22#,23#,24#,25#,26#,27#,28#,29#),
delay(15sec, range(12,29,'page'),style:secret))
);

You should not place pic() in this container tho, as it will place all elements inside it in the same spot.
