Fullscreen Inventory System (what you think)

HALLO GUYS

I've seeing serveral people creating fullscreen inventory systems,
and I also want to give it a try. But before I start working on it, I want you to answer a few of my questions:

1. How many slots shall there be?
2. Or shall the slots number depend on the heroes strenght?
3. Shall it be multiplayer compitable?

I will use the same layout as I use on my other system ( see screenshots).
The multiplayer version is the left one

Note: My system will only be an inventory. I wont add equiptable slots or such.

Edit:
The multiplayer version is the left one

1. 30 or more
2. no
3. yes! must!

Can it be campaign compitable?

1. As many as there is in the screenshot.
2. Could make it so that when you find a certain item or complete a quest, your inventory expands.
3. Personally, i wouldn't mind, since it sounds like it would be tons of more work.

If the items are useable in the bigger inventory, it could work to use a system in my campaign to equip the items.

1. I was thinking about 50 slots.
3. The only issue with it, is that it pause the game for the player but not
for the others.

Yes sure. It just need a gamecache to transfer data from the system
between the maps. Maybe I also shall make it campaign compitable

1. Thats is 50, and thats what im planning to make. So thats good:)
2. Hmm, that Is nearly the same as when you gain in strenght, so it may
be possible I will do that.
3. I dont think it would be so much more work. But what the hell, a good system, needs alot of work

I wont make the useable in the bigger inventory. Its only a bag. I wont trigger every useable item... sorry

Oh really? That would be awesome.

Is this hard to import? Does it need user to make doodads/units/other to every item?

I dont know if it will be hard to import yet. Because Im not started working on it yet. But a little diffucult will it be.

You need to create a Destructable Object for every item you have in your map. And a few extra for the layout.

Ok, so if I'm going to put your system to my campaign, I would need to make about 500 destructables. Yea, right. X_X

I will guess that the layout will take arround 5 destructable.

And the rest will be the items. So if you got 495 items, then you need
to create 495 destructables...

Sorry there is no other way to do it.

could you make a tutorial or something about how to create a fullscreen inventory system?

I thought about it, but the only problem is my english. Its hard for me to describe what i mean.

But its not that hard to create a simple fullscreen system.
You need to know:
- How to use trackables
- How to use JASS (GUI with WEU) (but I suggest JASS)
- And how to do some basic models

When you know these three things you actually know how to create
a fullscreen system.

WC3Jass.com :: Index have some tutorials about trackables, and the Hive and wc3campaigns have tutorials about 3d moddeling.

BUMB!

I have uploaded a sreenshots of the layout of the multiplayer fullscreen.

What do you guys think about the layout?

It looks amazing so Far,
I'm not Sure Why people aren't swarming to look at it,
Maybe if you put [Multilayer Compatible] in the title tons of people would swarm to see it.
Great job So Far. =]

Wawu! looks like it gonna be an awsome system when you'll finish it^^

By the way, in my opinion, 10 slots is boring... could you please add a few more slots such as belt, 2 bracers slots, 2 shoulders slots, 2 boots, 2 gloves, a "relic" slot and such things? I mean, try to do somthing unique ^^
Oh and another thing, do you make it able to increase few specific integer strings upon equiping item or reduce the string when removing that item?

I personaly think the more complex it is, the more it unquie as well.

sorry for my english

MeKC, the best systems are modular. I mean, rather than "hardcoding" an amount of slots, allow the user to set this amount and create itemslots accordingly. The usage could for instance be:

CreateInventory(number of slots, number of equipments)

The function itself would simply figure out how to make the GUI with a certain amount of slots...

Ofcourse it's a though mission to make it so, but it allows for much more customisation, which is worth it IMO.
