[How-To] Colored quest scrolls v2 (revised)

[lollo_9_1]

This is a revised version of an old thread. Following this How-To, you will have a better customizable solution for the aspect of your quests.

You will be able to choice amongst: quest icon, text color, blink effect (like whisper buttons)


How To
You just need to replace 2 little things:

1. In interfaceModule.py, replace BINARY_RecvQuest with:
   
2. In questlib.lua, replace send_letter_ex with:
   

Explanation:
-the 2° argument of send_letter_ex will support multiple parameters:

• green|blue|purple|golden|fucsia|aqua and so on (you can add them in BINARY_RecvQuest by adding new colors 0xFF+#HEX; )
• blink (the quest will flash like the whisper messages)
• ex (a dummy tag to separate it from "info" and "item")

-the 3° argument is the name of the icon to choose, which the current availables are:

• scroll_open.tga
• scroll_open_green.tga
• scroll_open_blue.tga
• scroll_open_purple.tga
• scroll_open_golden.tga

Examples:

send_letter_ex(localeInfo.LanguageOptionTitle, "green,blink,ex", "scroll_open_green.tga")

send_letter_ex(localeInfo.LanguageOptionTitle, "blue,blink,ex", "scroll_open_blue.tga")

send_letter_ex(localeInfo.LanguageOptionTitle, "purple,blink,ex", "scroll_open_purple.tga")

send_letter_ex(localeInfo.LanguageOptionTitle, "golden,blink,ex", "scroll_open_golden.tga")

send_letter_ex(localeInfo.LanguageOptionTitle, "golden,blink,ex", "scroll_open.tga")

send_letter_ex(localeInfo.LanguageOptionTitle, "golden,blink,ex", "scroll_open_green.tga")

Note: As you can imagine, the only limitation is that the color in N won't appear. (it will require additional code and work, so just forget it)

Hello young warrior, from what I see is over 00:00, so would need to go to bed because you're very tired.

1. First you beneath notice without any sense that every time without knowing about you be about, and of course did not know some of the Python language, just like last time in a comment of mine you said that my overall verification check functions with arguments in chat is the similar as insulting as it already exists, seriously? Those functions gave you the opportunity to do something special characters and queries s.a.m.d, not offensive word, but anyway to let this one hand and return to the initial chores.

You talk of copyright on what? A first version or?
Let your eyes open a little young warrior.

A part of code:

        if iconName and (iconType not in ("item", "file")): # type "ex" implied
            btn.SetUpVisual("d:/ymir work/ui/game/quest/questicon/%s" % (iconName.replace("open", "close")))
            btn.SetOverVisual("d:/ymir work/ui/game/quest/questicon/%s" % (iconName))
            btn.SetDownVisual("d:/ymir work/ui/game/quest/questicon/%s" % (iconName))

        listOfTypes = iconType.split(",")
        if "blink" in listOfTypes:
            btn.Flash()
 
        listOfColors = {
            "golden":   0xFFffa200,
            "green":    0xFF00e600,
            "blue":     0xFF0099ff,
            "purple":   0xFFcc33ff,
 
            "fucsia":   0xFFcc0099,
            "aqua":     0xFF00ffff,
        }
        for k,v in listOfColors.iteritems():
            if k in listOfTypes:
                btn.ToolTipText.SetPackedFontColor(v)

So mysterious dude do not understand what is the purpose and what hurts your comment? I do not think anyone stole your bread from the mouth, this is a release that was revised to shogun, and special functions us, and where are you talking about copyright.

Aaaaaaaa ready know, you wanted to put @ by martysama0134, what you wanted? Of course you can put very easy because you can check the code of both sides, and you'll notice that not even 5% job with one another, and here are updates such as new text color can add so on

Pretty please next time you go to comment on those topics which are filled with resellers and Scammers and all, not a topical release is the work of a man and shared it with you.

Have a stormy night.

PS: Do not you bother to reply that I really do not care about your answer, you're just a kid frustrated that demands attention.

How to use in a quest?

Instead of send_letter("XXX") you use send_letter_ex("XXX", "green,blink,ex", "scroll_open_green.tga") if you want green icon, green text, and the icon blinking.

OR
add these in questlib.lua

function send_letter_blue(name) send_letter_ex(name, "ex", "scroll_open_blue.tga") end
function send_letter_golden(name) send_letter_ex(name, "ex", "scroll_open_golden.tga") end
function send_letter_green(name) send_letter_ex(name, "ex", "scroll_open_green.tga") end
function send_letter_purple(name) send_letter_ex(name, "ex", "scroll_open_purple.tga") end

function send_letter_blue_blink(name) send_letter_ex(name, "blink,ex", "scroll_open_blue.tga") end
function send_letter_golden_blink(name) send_letter_ex(name, "blink,ex", "scroll_open_golden.tga") end
function send_letter_green_blink(name) send_letter_ex(name, "blink,ex", "scroll_open_green.tga") end
function send_letter_purple_blink(name) send_letter_ex(name, "blink,ex", "scroll_open_purple.tga") end

function send_letter_blue_text(name) send_letter_ex(name, "blue,ex", "scroll_open_blue.tga") end
function send_letter_golden_text(name) send_letter_ex(name, "golden,ex", "scroll_open_golden.tga") end
function send_letter_green_text(name) send_letter_ex(name, "green,ex", "scroll_open_green.tga") end
function send_letter_purple_text(name) send_letter_ex(name, "purple,ex", "scroll_open_purple.tga") end

function send_letter_blue_blink_text(name) send_letter_ex(name, "blink,blue,ex", "scroll_open_blue.tga") end
function send_letter_golden_blink_text(name) send_letter_ex(name, "blink,golden,ex", "scroll_open_golden.tga") end
function send_letter_green_blink_text(name) send_letter_ex(name, "blink,green,ex", "scroll_open_green.tga") end
function send_letter_purple_blink_text(name) send_letter_ex(name, "blink,purple,ex", "scroll_open_purple.tga") end

So you would just need to replace send_letter("something") with send_letter_green_text("something") for text and icon green.
