Offline Teases (TeaseMe)

[cd_228]

Could be handy for keeping track of stuff like edges etc I guess?

Exactly, what I was thinking about. Or store information about the user like age, or other values..

The only problem I'm havng is that I can't download any teases with a colon ':' in their name, when I click save an error message pops up saying invalid filename.

I was trying to download the other 'indiscretion' teases.

That makes sense Mat - I believe : is indeed not a legal character in a file name on Windows....

Should be simple enough for the import feature to replace the : with for example _ though, as soon as Take or Dev gets on it

Well.. Just delete ":" from the filename when you are saving the tease? This solves problem?

[janmb]

Yep, that works, just tested it. I for one had forgotten that you can choose the file name before saving at all...

You can't change the name in the read-only info boxes when you import the tease, but the file saving dialog lets you alter the name before saving, and doing that (removing the : ) does the trick

[Mat]

The error I'm getting appears as soon as you click save, just before the 'save as' dialog box opens, so I am unable to choose the name it saves as.

I've tried downloading the program again and updating to the latest .net framework and I'm still having the same problem.

[janmb]

Weird, I had no trouble saving the tease you listed...

Which version of teaseme and windows are you using?

[Mat]

I'm using teaseme v0.1.1 on Windows XP (with service pack 3)

[janmb]

W7 for my part, otherwise no difference I think.

I selected to download media as well, hit save, dialog opens, changed file name and voila...

If it doesnt work out for you I can grab and zip the entire series for you later

[d3vi0n]

Hmm... strange... it worked on my system (vista). Maybe reinstall the .NET Framework?

[Takenaga]

Changing the filename in the SaveDIalog should do the trick; for convenience I changed the source code to remove the invalid characters.

I was experimenting with user-settings (like gender, name of mistress, the way a mistress addresses you, etc.) before. My idea was to allow you to save them and then they can be reused in the teases using variables. I didn't finish that as I was too busy at that time. The XML used something like ${UserName} in the Text and at runtime it will be replaced by the user setting (or the default value in the header of the tease) for a more personalized experience.

I'm struggling how to implement the variables in the xml. Currently set, unset, if-set and if-not-set are supported attributes for using flags. Does anyone have suggestions what the xml should look like when using variables (changing the current XML grammar a bit is allowed, I can use the version attribute to support the old/new grammar)?

This is what I have in mind:

Using flags (bool):

Code: Select all

set = "flag = true"set = "flag"  [color=#008040](shorthand for flag = true, backwards compat.)[/color]       if = "flag == true"if = "flag"   [color=#008040](shorthand for flag == true, backwards compat.)[/color]unset = "flag"    [color=#008040](for backwards compatibility)[/color]if-set = "flag"    [color=#008040](for backwards compatibility)[/color]if-not-set = "flag"   [color=#008040](for backwards compatibility)[/color]

Using integers:

Code: Select all

set = "counter = counter + 1"if = "counter == 10"if = "counter > 5"if = "counter < 10"  [color=#008040](less-than char must be encoded in XML)[/color]

[/code]

Using strings:

Code: Select all

set = "name = 'Milo'"if = "name != 'x'"

 
Suggestions for a clean xml grammar that is easy to write and remember are very welcome.

hi all

i have a question for the metronome style
is it possible to change the sounding of the metronome ?
if yes, how can i do that ?

and another question
is it possible to change the speed of the metronome within one picture
for example first slow bpm, and after lets say 20 seconds fast bpm without changing to another picture ?

thx for your help
Harry

is it possible to change the sounding of the metronome ?

You need a different soundfile (mp3 or wav) for that. The default soundfile is "Resources\tick.wav", Open "TeaseMe.exe.config" and change the path value for "MetronomeAudio":

Code: Select all

<!-- Audio file played on each beat of the metronome (path is relative to the application directory).--> <add key="MetronomeAudio" value="Resources\tick.wav" />

is it possible to change the speed of the metronome within one picture. for example first slow bpm, and after lets say 20 seconds fast bpm without changing to another picture ?

Make 2 pages with same picture. 1st page with 20 seconds delay, fast bpm and target to the 2nd page:

Code: Select all

    <Page id="page1">      <Text>instruction</Text>      <Image id="picture.jpg" />      <Delay target="page2" seconds="20" style="hidden" />      <Metronome bpm="250" />    </Page>    <Page id="page1">      <Text>instruction</Text>      <Image id="picture.jpg" />      <Delay target="page3" seconds="40" style="hidden" />      <Metronome bpm="60" />    </Page>
