Create shop like HoN

[Im JoKeR]

Can someone help me done this project ?? Make shops like HoN

 

[Weep]

I have no idea what you're talking about. You need to tell us what shops are like in HoN.

 

[Mitzui]

I've been looking systems like this, i found a tutorial,
but i don't checked it yet, if it's like HoN, try it out, tell me if it is.

[Adiktuz]

yeah, try my tutorial (link was posted by Mitzui)

and be sure that when you post something like this, please put details... as you cannot assume that all people know HoN or any other game... (personally I don't play HoN, and never even seen it in play)

also, this should be on the requests section or on the World Editor Help zone...

 

[Bribe]

You need to define what HoN is, provide a bit of background and what your goal is.

 

[Mitzui]

@Bribe HoN means Heroes of Newerth, a DotA-based game.

Hmm... A little more detail though, like a picture of its shops, I don't play HoN though so I wouldn't really be clear about it.

 

[Adiktuz]

What we want is details about hon (regarding his request)... not just the meaning of the acronym...

The shop in hon is 'on the left side, after the the hero's button', it can't be done in wc3...

 

[Adiktuz]

so something like a shop that you can always access? that can be done... seriously... and its pretty easy... and you can always use my tutorial (the one linked by Mitzui), to have access to an inifinite number of shops, with just one button under the hero's icon...

you just need to make the "main" shop as a hero and create one for each player (then use my tutorial if you need to add sub-shops... and a periodic trigger which transfers it to the location of the real hero of the player every about maybe .25 seconds or so, if you want to be able to sell items by dropping them to the icon of the shop below the hero icon)...

I've tried to look for a pic of the shops... the method I presented is the easy way, though it will show the shops on the UI box where the command buttons normally are...

but it is still possible to do it exactly like that in HoN

but you would most probably need to use something like the libraries included on Anachron's FSI which means you need a lot of vJASS knowledge...

 

[rysnt11]

yeah, i think that's good,
Also, the hon's shop is on the right after the hero icon, each of them, and when clicked, the shop will open up a new window, a multi board like window, and show the item
To buy an item you must drag the item to your inventory(correct me if i was wrong) same as selling item

 

[Adiktuz]

Well, you can put it to the right (and make it show menus) if you know enough vJASS knowledge to use and modify the DGUI library...

if you don't have that knowledge, maybe the easy method I presented will be the best that you could achieve...

 

[rysnt11]

Can you try to make that?
I want to see them 'alive' hehe~
Not the gui one, the vJass one

 

[Adiktuz]

The vJASS example works the same as the GUI one [if ur talking about my tut]... or are you asking me to make the shop that is available anytime?

 

[rysnt11]

Like in the hon
When a unit come near the fountain ( >500 range ) the shop menus show up, and allowing player to do their busines..
After the hero leaves the fountain area, the shop menus is vanished..

 

[Adiktuz]

Here is a very simple implementation...

 

[Im JoKeR]

any one got ideas about my green icons in my Wc3? my imported icons*

 

[rysnt11]

the path of the imported one should be:
ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNyouricon.blp
ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled\DISBTNyouricon.blp
Change the 'youricon' with the name of the icon

Here's something quick done purely and only in GUI.

Here's something quick done purely and only in GUI.

Nice trick, but you could do it with abilities as well, it would be easier than creating loads of extra shops, but of course another load of work to store the item raw id's to the abilities' ones.
