[Bars and sh*t] A stupid question

[Vic7im]

Hello and good morning everyone!

I'm messing around with bars and stuff from LeGo/Ikarus, specifically working on "when you're poisoned, then color this bar". It works, really, but the problem is that I can't make the original Gothic II health bar disappear, so they overlap and the original health bar will always stay on top of the modded one.

Does anybody know how to remove the GII healthbar? Many thanks =)

Simplest solutions are often the best - just move it out of the screen

As I remember it is quite easy to move it around the screen. Can't you just move it outside it? Code will look like oCGameInstance.hpBar.zCView_vposx = 99999.

I have no idea which oCViewStatusBar member is responsible for position on the screen, from their names I can guess that it's either zCView_vposx, zCView_pposx, zCView_px1, zCView_px2, zCView_winx, zCView_posCurrent_0 or zCView_posOpenClose_0 and their 'y' pairs.

Meanwhile I've found another solution xD I simply replaced the original bar texture with an empty transparent one, so that it won't show on screen.

As you said, the simplest solutions are the best, like Occam's razor law! Thanks for the answers anyway

I'm doing some tests with "remembering hero's hp, if they're changed do something", since it's all new to me I'll probably need some help, so see you soon! XD

I think, it is an easier way, than replacing bars:

Kod: [Zaznacz]

func void SetBarTexture (var int bar, var string tex_name)
{
        var oCViewStatusBar bar_ptr; bar_ptr = _^ (bar);
        ViewPtr_SetTexture (bar_ptr.value_bar, tex_name);
        bar_ptr.texValue = tex_name;
};
Example:

Kod: [Zaznacz]

SetBarTexture (MEM_Game.hpBar, "PoisonedBar.TGA");
