Tuvok board

Those buttons look great, i didn't actually think you'd have a working board up tonight, thanks! Interesting idea with the randomize button.

i think theres a bit of lag, when you click one sound, and then another it 'waits' for the sound to be done.

other than that it's coming along nicely.

the lag thing happen with the files on your hard drive? it shouldn't - if you're talking about clicking the buttons on the Internet - it's because the audio file has to download before it will play - if the files are all on your hard drive it should all be instantaneous

ok - I did a lot of work today working on an amazing new board design concept - but I did some sorting

I apologize for something with the format - basically I decided that since I no longer needed a separate button for each thing on the stage, I no longer needed separate mouse-release button inside the pop-up windows either - but coming up with the schema to create them on the stage is a little tricky - so in a couple of the pop-up windows there are buttons far away from the other ones - I may have to just hard code a few scenarios specific to this loader or that in a few spots because writing a perfect code for every scenario would take longer - there's only a few special cases where the code I've made doesn't place the pop-up buttons well

so basically, this new design - just like there is no longer a separate button for every loader or mp3-playing button, there is no longer a separate frame within the swf for every pop-up page - the soundboard is one frame - and the mp3s are all organized into arrays for categories - if there's only one mp3 for a given category, the button will still be a pop-up, but there'll just be that one mouse-release button in the pop-up window - that way down the road if you make more mp3s for something, it's all ready to go - you just add the mp3 names into the proper array

I don't know if that made any sense - but just take it for a spin

one thing though - I ran out of mp3s for the business section at the top so the last column is all the same mp3

Whoa, thats a huge improvement jackulator, thanks!

I'm going to make a few calls with it tonight, I'm glad that it's much more straight forward than the Picard board.

I update the original post


If anyone has any questions or problems with the board feel free to ask me or Jackulator.


I hope to add more lines of dialog to the board sometime soon. I've gotten great response on youtube from my calls so far.
