SOLVED] Designer / Editor for .gui files?

by Lucas Shinkovich · in Torque X 2D · 12/20/2008 (12:20 pm) · 2 replies

Hello all,

I've recently started playing around with Torque X 2.0. I couldn't find any tutorials / information regarding a GUI editor. I noticed that there are XML files located in the TankBuster demo that have what seems GUI screens that are loaded via the SceneLoader.Load method.

I was wondering if there was a tool to create such files or do that need to currently be created by hand?

Thanks in advance.

There is no GUI editor. It all has to be made in C#. The current GUI Tutorials are not very helpful. Johns Torque X book will get you started and there are some posted some examples in this forum that might help. :) Just look for GUI posts on the first few pages of this forum.

Speaking of the book, you can freely download the book's source code from www.torquexbook.com. I'm pretty sure it's the Chapter 16 files that would interest you most.
